  1. tractarianism

    Tractarianism, also known as the Oxford Movement, is an ideological and theological movement within the 19th century Anglican Church. The central focus was on the renewal of "catholic," or universal, aspects of the church, maintaining its apostolic heritage and independence from political authority. The term "tractarianism" comes from a series of 90 religious pamphlets, or "tracts," titled "Tracts for the Times," published between 1833 and 1841. The tracts addressed issues such as liturgy, sacraments, and church's apostolic succession in a bid to reestablish an older, more traditional form of worship and religious activism.
