A Study of Religious Thought in England from 1850

First published in 1933, A Study of Religious Thought in England from 1850 brings together the Olaus Petri Lectures delivered at the University of Uppsala in the spring of 1932. It examines the history of religious thought in England from the mid-19th century, with particular emphasis on the philosophy of religion during this period.

The book opens with a broad overview of the era before exploring biblical criticism and its profound effects on religious thought. It further examines non-religious immanentism, the reaction from immanentism, personal idealism and related philosophical positions, and the contributions of the British idealists.

This volume will be of interest to students and researchers of history, religion, and philosophy.
