John Henry Newman (180190) was brought up in the Church of England
in the Evangelical tradition. An Oxford graduate and Fellow of
Oriel College, he was appointed Vicar of St Mary's Oxford in 1828;
from 1839 onwards, he began to have doubts about the claims of the
Anglican Church for Catholicity and in 1845 he was received into
the Roman Catholic Church. He was made a Cardinal in 1879. His
influence on both the restoration of Roman Catholicism in England
and the advance of Catholic ideas in the Church of England was
profound.
Volume XXXII contains a further 513 letters which have surfaced
since the publication of the preceding volumes, spanning the years
1830 until virtually the eve of Newman's death on August 11, 1890.
There are, for example, thirty-four letters to Thomas Arnold, Jr.,
following his conversion to Roman Catholicism on January 18, 1856,
in Van Diemen's Land and his subsequent return to England with his
wife and family; seven letters to Charles Marriott and seven
letters from him dealing mainly with the sale of the Littlemore
property following Newman's secession to Rome on October 9, 1845;
and eighteen letters to various members of the Mozley family,
including two letters to Jemima in the wake of the Achilli trial in
1853.
Other recipients include the Duke of Norfolk and his family;
Charles Wellington Furse, Principal of Ripon College, Cuddesdon,
near Oxford, and future Archdeacon of Westminster; and Miss Maria
Trench, who was preparing some of Keble's papers and reviews for
publication. There are also two letters to Pope Leo XIII
petitioning him for the canonization of John Fisher, Thomas More,
and the English Martyrs.
