William Palmer (1811-1879) was a theologian and ecumenist best
known for his attempts to forge links between the Anglican and
Orthodox churches. Palmer was elected a fellow at Magdalen College,
Oxford in 1832, and became an adherent of the Oxford Movement,
which emphasised the catholicity of the Anglican church. In the
1840s and 1850s Palmer visited Russia with the controversial aim of
studying Orthodox theology and being admitted to communion by the
Russian church. His request was refused, however, and his visit
deemed a failure. Palmer converted to Roman Catholicism in 1855.
The Replies of the Humble Nicon (1871) is volume 1 of The Patriarch
and the Tsar (1871-1876), Palmer's six-volume translation of
documents relating to the life of Nicon (1605-1681), Patriarch of
Moscow, whose theological reforms brought him into conflict with
the Muscovite Tsar Alexis.
