The Popery Of Oxford by Peter Maurice
The Celebrated Letters of the Rev. J.H. Newman, D.D., to the Rev. Dr. Jelf, Canon of Christ Church
This book delves into the controversial religious transformations occurring within the University of Oxford during the 19th century, focusing on the perceived infiltration of Roman Catholic practices and beliefs into the traditionally Anglican institution. The author critiques the influence of the Oxford Movement, a group advocating for the revival of Catholic traditions within the Church of England, and argues that such changes threaten the Protestant foundations of the university. Through a series of detailed observations and arguments, the narrative highlights the tension between tradition and reform, questioning the future direction of religious education and practice at Oxford.
