Description

The “two discourses” mentioned on the title page of this book are Lewis Warner Green’s “Right of Private Judgment” and Alexander Taggart McGill’s “Puseyism: Another Form of Antichrist.” Both sermons are a reaction against the Oxford Movement, an effort to return the Church of England to its pre-Reformation roots and the teachings of the Church Fathers. Its name came from Oxford, where most of its leaders lived and worked; it was also known as the “Anglo-Catholic revival” and sometimes as “Puseyism,” after one of its central figures, Edward Bouverie Pusey (1800-1882).
