In this second volume of \u003cem\u003eCertain Difficulties felt by Anglicans\u003c\/em\u003e John Henry Newman brought together two 'Open Letters' which address these key issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eA Letter Addressed to the Rev. E. B. Pusey, D.D., on Occasion of His Eirenicon \u003c\/em\u003e(1866) Newman corrects the misconceptions of his former Oxford Movement colleague Professor Edward Pusey who had attacked Catholic Marian devotional practices. Newman expounds the early Fathers' teaching about Mary as the 'Second Eve' who was chosen to be the Mother of God; and he shows how Catholic devotion always honours her for the humility with which she accepted this call.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNine years later William Gladstone, then the British prime Minister, published an attack on the 1870 promulgation of the doctrine of papal infallibility, arguing that it was unscriptural and was incompatible with the loyalty of Catholics to the British crown. Newman's reply, \u003cem\u003eA Letter to the Duke of Norfolk\u003c\/em\u003e (the leading Catholic layman in England), explains the exact meaning of the definition, as opposed to the extreme Catholic Ultramontane interpretation of it. He also gives a classic exposition of the true meaning of conscience and its relation to Church authority.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis first ever critical edition of these works has a substantial Editor's Introduction, examining the issues and setting the historical context, and provides comprehensive notes to Newman's text.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNewman collected both 'Letters' as Volume II of Difficulties Felt by Anglicans in Catholic Teaching. This is the first critical edition of this volume and contains detailed historical and critical introductions and footnotes to explain Newman's many historical and other references. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 562\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.25 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 14, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53039191097677,"sku":"9780852444139","price":76.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/3304\/7117\/files\/zHJFZVjQ369780852444139.webp?v=1766314529","url":"https:\/\/belfastbooks.us\/products\/difficulties-of-anglicans-volume-ii-hardcover","provider":"belfastbooks.us","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
