The Tendency Of The Principles Advocated In The Tracts For The Times

""The Tendency Of The Principles Advocated In The Tracts For The Times: In Five Letters Addressed To A Candidate For Holy Orders"" is a book written by Edward Newenham Hoare in 1841. The book is a collection of five letters written to a candidate for holy orders, discussing the principles advocated in the Tracts for the Times. The Tracts for the Times were a series of 90 religious pamphlets published between 1833 and 1841, advocating for a return to traditional Anglican beliefs and practices. Hoare's letters discuss the impact of the Tracts for the Times on the Church of England, and the potential dangers of their principles. He argues that the Tracts promote a narrow and exclusive view of the Church, and that their teachings could lead to a rejection of the principles of the Reformation. Hoare also criticizes the Tractarians for their emphasis on ritual and sacraments, arguing that these practices can become a distraction from the true purpose of the Church.Overall, ""The Tendency Of The Principles Advocated In The Tracts For The Times"" is a critical examination of the Tractarian movement and its impact on the Church of England in the mid-19th century. The book provides a valuable perspective on the debates and controversies surrounding the Tracts for the Times, and sheds light on the ongoing tensions between traditional and progressive elements within the Anglican Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
