1800 1882 Bouverie Movement Oxford Punch Pusey Theologian Despised
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the distinguished figure of Edward Bouverie Pusey (1800-1882), a leading theologian and key figure in the Oxford Movement. Pusey, who was often referred to as 'Puseyite' or simply 'Pusey,' is depicted here in the later years of his life, with a serious expression and piercing gaze. The Oxford Movement, also known as the Tractarian Movement, was a significant religious and ecclesiastical revival within the Church of England in the 19th century. Pusey was a central figure in this movement, advocating for a return to the early Church Fathers and the sacramental and liturgical practices of the pre-Reformation Church. Despite his profound contributions to theology and the Anglican Church, Pusey was often criticized and even despised by some for his unwavering commitment to his beliefs. His association with Roman Catholic practices and his opposition to certain aspects of the Protestant Reformation led to accusations of being a 'Romanizer' or even a 'papist.' However, Pusey remained steadfast in his convictions and continued to influence the Anglican Church and the wider Christian world through his writings and teachings. This photograph, taken in the late 19th century, serves as a poignant reminder of Pusey's enduring legacy as a theologian, leader, and controversial figure in the history of the Church. The image captures the intensity and depth of his character, as well as the complexities of the religious and ecclesiastical landscape of his time. Pusey's life and work continue to be studied and debated by scholars and theologians, and his impact on the Anglican Church and the broader Christian tradition remains significant to this day.
