Sommario/riassunto

F. D. Maurice was a leading nineteenth-century Anglican theologian and social commentator. He pioneered Christian Socialism and became a key influence on the development of the modern Church of England. This study shows his work was driven by a concern to reinvigorate Anglican ecclesiology, and to promote an ecumenism.
