The Oxford History of Anglicanism is a major new and unprecedented
international study of the identity and historical influence of one
of the world's largest versions of Christianity. This global study
of Anglicanism from the sixteenth century looks at how was Anglican
identity constructed and contested at various periods since the
sixteenth century; and what was its historical influence during the
past six centuries. It explores not just the ecclesiastical and
theological aspects of global Anglicanism, but also the political,
social, economic, and cultural influences of this form of
Christianity that has been historically significant in western
culture, and a burgeoning force in non-western societies today. The
chapters are written by international exports in their various
historical fields which includes the most recent research in their
areas, as well as original research. The series forms an invaluable
reference for both scholars and interested non-specialists. Volume
four of The Oxford History of Anglicanism explores Anglicanism
examines the twentieth-century history of Anglicanism in North
America, Britain and Ireland, and Australasia. A historiographical
introduction provides insight into changing historical
interpretation. The volume explores perspectives on secularization,
decolonization, mission, and the theological identity of
Anglicanism. It highlights the global communion's movement away
from an Anglo-centric leadership and a British imperial legacy
towards greater diversity and greater influence for the global
south. Ten themed chapters open up complementary aspects of the
history of Western Anglicanism, including theological development,
social justice, women, human sexuality, ecumenical relations,
mission and decolonization, war and peace, liturgical revision,
sociological analysis, and the relationship of the church, state,
and nationalism. A further section on institutional development
looks at the history of communion-wide institutions in the
twentieth century, and at changing ideas of Anglican identity.
Later chapters survey the regional history of Western Anglicanism
in three substantial chapters examining excessively Australia and
New Zealand, North America, and the British Isles.
