The Tractarians inaugurated a significant and enduring Catholic revival in the Church of England. Because Protestantism emphasises biblical authority, scholars of the Oxford Movement have often focused on other sources of authority to which the founders of the Catholic revival were committed such as the Church, tradition, and the early fathers. Such an approach, however, can create a false dichotomy. This lecture will uncover how deeply and tenaciously the Tractarians emphasised the authority and centrality of Holy Scripture, with a special emphasis on the life, work, and ministry of E. B. Pusey.
