A History of the Desire for Christian Unity is a multi-volume
reference work on the history of ecumenism. The ecumenical movement
is understood as a twentieth-century movement of European origin
with a global reach. This reference work is a reconstruction of the
arc of time in which the Christian churches transitioned from a
position of hostility to one of dialogue, and from separation to
forms of communion. Scholars across the continents and disciplines
explore a history of individuals and groups, generations and
assemblies, documents and programs, theologies and practices, all
firmly placed within the framework of a desire for unity. This
first volume traces the long-term roots and reconstructs the
historical, theological, and political junctures that marked the
beginning of a distinctive movement that runs throughout the
nineteenth and into the heart of the twentieth century.
