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 experts 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
three of The Oxford History of Anglicanism explores the nineteenth
century when Anglicanism developed into a world-wide Christian
communion, largely, but not solely, due to the expansion of the
British Empire. By the end of this period an Anglican Communion had
come into existence as a diverse conglomerate of often competing
Anglican identities with their often unresolved tensions and
contradictions, but also with some measure of genuine unity. The
volume examines the ways the various Anglican identities of the
nineteenth century are both metropolitan and colonial constructs,
and how they influenced the wider societies in which they formed
Anglican Churches.
