‘The High Church Tradition’

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 October 2024

Extract

Readers of the June number of Blackfriars, 1941, will be familiar with Mr. Addleshaw’s inspiring call for a return to dogma and worship as the source of our social activities and as a basis for reunion. In The High Church Tradition the Vice-Chancellor of St. Chad’s College, Durham, shows his thesis to be established in the best Anglican tradition as well as in the Catholic teaching of the Church from the beginning. We would recommend this book with vigour to Catholic readers not merely to foster a sympathy for the most characteristic and Catholic Anglican viewpoint, but also that they may learn a lesson in the right approach to social action as well as to reunion We would ask Catholics to banish prejudice before opening the book and to be prepared to learn from someone who has arrived at an insight into the relation between revealed Truth and action far from apparent in many Catholic ‘activists.’
