Anglican Clergy in Australia, 1788-1850: Building a British World
ISBN: 9780861933280 / Angielski / Twarda / 282 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Anglican clergymen in Britain's Australian colonies in their earliest years faced very particular challenges. Lacking relevant training, experience or pastoral theology, these pioneer religious professionals not only ministered to a convict population unique in the empire, but had also to engage with indigenous peoples and a free-settler population struggling with an often inhospitable environment. This was in the context of a settler empire that was being reshaped by mass migration, rapid expansion and a widespread decline in the political authority of religion and the confessional state,...

An Anglican British world: The Church of England and the expansion of the settler empire, c. 1790-1860
ISBN: 9780719087226 / Angielski / Twarda / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When members of that oft-maligned institution, the Anglican Church - the 'Tory Party at prayer' - encountered the far-flung settler empire, they found it a strange and intimidating place. Anglicanism's conservative credentials seemed to have little place in developing colonies; its established status, secure in England, would crumble in Ireland and was destined never to be adopted in the 'White Dominions'. By 1850, however, a global 'Anglican Communion' was taking shape.
This book explains why Anglican clergymen started to feel at home in the empire. Between 1790 and 1860 the Church of... When members of that oft-maligned institution, the Anglican Church - the 'Tory Party at prayer' - encountered the far-flung settler empire, they found...

Theories of Development in the Oxford Movement
ISBN: 9780852448250 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. James Pereiro proves convincingly that the Oxford Movement and the theory of development of doctrine cannot be properly understood without a contextual analysis of the Movement's theory of religious knowledge. The book also shows how the first stirrings of a coherent theory of development of doctrine took place, away from the limelight, in the thought of Samuel Francis Wood, one of Newman's students at Oriel.

The office of bishop in the Episcopal Church in the United States has long begged attention from historians.

Religion and Society in the Diocese of St Davids 1485-2011
ISBN: 9781409447726 / Angielski / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Addressing key ideas in the development of popular religious culture and the stubborn continuity of long-lasting religious practices into the modern era, the volume shows how the diocese was also a locus for continuing major religious controversies, especially in the nineteenth...

The polemical revisionary writings of 17th-century puritan pastor Anthony Wotton on topics such as Christ's redemptive suffering and the imputation of justifying righteousness, God's saving grace and the moral law, faith and works, and the gracious covenant and legal covenant--as well as the bitter doctrinal controversy that they stimulated--are examined in this scholarly study.

The Church of England and the Home Front, 1914-1918: Civilians, Soldiers and Religion in Wartime Colchester
ISBN: 9781783270514 / Angielski / Twarda / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Church of England is popularly believed to have had a bad First World War. This book challenges that tired orthodoxy. It examines the relationship between parish churches and the Army during the war, using the important garrison town of Colchester as a case study. Colchester in 1914-18 was a microcosm both of English society and of the Church of England, in all their diversity. The presence of the Army also meant that wartime experiences and trends which were noticeable elsewhere in England were sharply felt in Colchester. For the generation of Britons who lived through the Great War,...
