Thomas Cranmer, Theologian (Paperback)

In his important evaluation of the theological leader of the
English Reformation, G.W. Bromiley charts Cranmer's doctrinal
views, scriptural interpretation and liturgical composition. His
nuanced position on various controversial issues of the day, not
least baptism, is articulated with clarity and care, and his
ecumenical sensitivity is foregrounded. While arguably more adept
as a scholar than as a creative theologian in his own right,
Cranmer's writing nevertheless formed the cornerstone of future
Anglican theology. Through his Articles of Religion (42, later
reduced to 39) and the Book of Common Prayer, he set the parameters
within which the Church of England was to operate. Perhaps most
significantly, as Bromiley shows, his extensive citation of
patristic sources established a precedent for his successors that
continues today. Written by one of the great ecclesiastical
historians of the twentieth century, Thomas Cranmer, Theologian is
the essential starting point for understanding Cranmer's influence
and legacy in the Anglican church.
