This book provides an index of writings by prominent Tractarians, shedding light on the origins of the movement that sought to revive certain Catholic practices and beliefs within the Church of England. The index is particularly useful for understanding the gradual evolution of Tractarianism, especially in relation to the Reformation and Roman Catholicism. The writings reveal a progressive departure from the Reformers' views, with an increasing emphasis on the authority of the Church Fathers, tradition, and the sacraments. The author examines the implications of this shift, highlighting the tensions between Protestantism and Catholicism within the Church of England. This book offers valuable insights into the complex theological debates that shaped the Oxford Movement and continue to influence Anglicanism today.

Excerpt from An Index to the Tracts for the Times
But the questions, What is Tractarianism? In what does it consist? What are its limits? Its leading features? Is it pro gressive or stationary? Is it developing itself further, or fixed and immovable, ancient or new? These are questions to which satisfactory answers can rarely be obtained, although they con stitute an indispensable preliminary to any serviceable discussion on the merits and demerits of the system.

Excerpt from An Index to the Tracts for the Times
The celebrity which has been achieved by the theologians, who constitute what has now received the appellation of the Tractarian School of Divinity, forms of itself a sufficient apology for the publication of an Index to their now voluminous writings. At the same time, the compiler of the present work would at once candidly acknowledge, that the vast influence conferred on so many of these divines, by their station and position in one of our national Universities, and, as it appears, retained by them to a great extent, in the face of recent censures, has been with himself a main inducement to prosecute his task. Under the first consideration, fidelity in the analysis, and a steady regard to its serviceableness as a work of reference, would be the main qualifications required from him, to render the Index useful and acceptable to all, of whatever theological view, who have been or who may be led to take an interest in the writings in question. In the latter, the compiler conceives that he is rendering an important assistance to persons of serious minds, to whom the tendency of the Tractarian divinity, its probable results, and further development, have become matters of anxious inquiry. Such a publication cannot, of course, from its very nature, extend to any account of the circumstances under which opinions, that had for some time (as it appears) been silently working their way in the University of Oxford, first, in the year 1833, received from the hands of the late Mr. Rose, of Cambridge, in combination with Messrs. Newman, Proude, Keble, Perceval, and another party not named, a systematic provision for their extension among the younger clergy of the United Church.
