puseyism
Puseyism is a 19th-century form of Anglican theology and religious practice, named after Edward Bouverie Pusey, who was a prominent leader of the Oxford Movement. It promotes high church tradition, emphasizing ritual, sacramentalism, and the succession of bishops. In modern times, it's sometimes colloquially used to refer to traditional, ritualistic or conservative religious practice within Anglicanism.

The Nuttall Encyclopedia
Puseyism
defined by Carlyle to be "a noisy theoretic demonstration and laudation of the Church, instead of some unnoisy, unconscious, but practical, total, heart-and-soul demonstration of a Church, ... a matter to strike one dumb," and apropos to which he asks pertinently, "if there is no atmosphere, what will it serve a man to demonstrate the excellence of lungs?"
