Overview
William George Ward and the Oxford Movement is a biographical work that explores the life and legacy of William George Ward, a prominent figure in the Oxford Movement of the 19th century. Written by Wilfrid Ward, the son of William George Ward, this book offers a unique perspective on the religious and intellectual movement that sought to revitalize the Church of England and reassert its Catholic heritage.The book begins by tracing Ward's early life and education, including his time at Oxford University where he became involved with the Tractarian Movement and the influential figure of John Henry Newman. Ward's intellectual development and his growing commitment to the Catholic faith are explored in detail, as are his relationships with other key figures in the Oxford Movement such as Edward Bouverie Pusey and Henry Edward Manning.The book also examines Ward's controversial views on a range of theological and philosophical issues, including his defense of Catholic doctrine, his opposition to Darwinism, and his advocacy for the revival of scholastic philosophy. Ward's intellectual contributions to the Oxford Movement and his impact on the wider religious and intellectual landscape of Victorian England are discussed in depth.Overall, William George Ward and the Oxford Movement provides a comprehensive and insightful account of one of the most significant figures in the history of the Church of England and the Oxford Movement. It offers a valuable resource for scholars and students of religious history, philosophy, and theology, as well as anyone interested in the intellectual and cultural history of 19th century England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
