John Henry Newman (1801-90) was at the height of his position in
the Church of England in 1839, when he first began to feel doubts
concerning the claims of the Anglican Church. His editorship of the
British Critic took up a great deal of time, but he was greatly
encouraged by its increasing sales. Uncomfortable with his position
as Vicar of St Mary's, Oxford Newman was considering giving up the
position at the end of 1840. This volume covers a significant
period in Newman's life, with a background of social ferment and
political tension: the Corn Laws, Chartism, an inexperienced
monarch, weak government, and foreign problems. Contemporary
writers such as Carlyle attracted Newman's attention, and
university reform was a live issue.
