The movement, whose original devotees were mostly associated with the University of Oxford, argued for the reinstatement of some older Christian traditions of faith and their inclusion into Anglican liturgy and theology. They thought of Anglicanism as one of three branches of the " one, holy, catholic, and apostolic" Christian Church. Many key participants subsequently converted to Roman Catholicism. Tractarianism, the movement's philosophy, was named after a series of publications, the ''Tracts for the Times'', written to promote the movement. Tractarians were often disparagingly referred to as "Newmanites" (before 1845) and "Puseyites", after two prominent Tractarians, John Henry Newman and Edward Bouverie Pusey. Other well-known Tractarians included John Keble, Charles Marriott, Richard Froude, Robert Wilb ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
