Between 1833 and 1891 Henry Edward Manning (1808-1892) and William
Ewart Gladstone (1809-1898) maintained a correspondence, broken
only for a decade from 1851-1861and from 1875-1882. Tracing as it
does the shifting relationships between two such major figures over
the greater part of the nineteenth century, the collection provides
substantial insights into debates on Church-State realignments in
the 1830s and 1840s, the entanglements of Anglican Old High
Churchmen and Tractarians from the early years of the Oxford
Movement to 1851, and the relationships between Roman Catholics and
the British Government over Italian, Irish, educational, and other
political and religious issues in the latter half of the nineteenth
century.
The first and second volumes include the greater part of the
correspondence, composed while the two men were close friends,
prior to Manning's entrance into the Roman Catholic Church in April
1851 and Gladstone's shift from the Conservative to the Liberal
party at approximately the same time. The third and fourth volumes
of the edition comprise their letters from the post-1861 period,
Manning then serving as a Roman Catholic priest and Archbishop of
Westminster, and Gladstone as Chancellor of the Exchequer, leader
of the Liberal opposition, and three terms as Liberal Prime
Minister (his fourth following Manning's death). The fourth volume
includes an appendix of materials marking their public debate
initiated in late 1874 by Gladstone's charge that with the formal
declaration of papal infallibility in 1870 Roman Catholics were
required to renounce their "moral and mental freedom."
