Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Index to the Tracts for the Times The celebrity which has been achieved by the theologians, who constitute what has now received the appellation of the Tractarian School of Divinity, forms of itself a sufficient apology for the publication of an Index to their now voluminous writings. At the same time, the compiler of the present work would at once candidly acknowledge, that the vast influence conferred on so many of these divines, by their station and position in one of our national Universities, and, as it appears, retained by them to a great extent, in the face of recent censures, has been with himself a main inducement to prosecute his task. Under the first consideration, fidelity in the analysis, and a steady regard to its serviceableness as a work of reference, would be the main qualifications required from him, to render the Index useful and acceptable to all, of whatever theological view, who have been or who may be led to take an interest in the writings in question. In the latter, the compiler conceives that he is rendering an important assistance to persons of serious minds, to whom the tendency of the Tractarian divinity, its probable results, and further development, have become matters of anxious inquiry. Such a publication cannot, of course, from its very nature, extend to any account of the circumstances under which opinions, that had for some time (as it appears) been silently working their way in the University of Oxford, first, in the year 1833, received from the hands of the late Mr. Rose, of Cambridge, in combination with Messrs. Newman, Proude, Keble, Perceval, and another party not named, a systematic provision for their extension among the younger clergy of the United Church.
