Publisher's Synopsis
The Romish Reaction And Its Present Operation On The Church Of England is a book written by Henry Soames and published in 1843. The book discusses the influence of the Roman Catholic Church on the Church of England during the 19th century. Soames argues that the rise of the Oxford Movement, which sought to bring the Church of England closer to Catholicism, was a response to the perceived threat of secularism and liberalism. He also examines the impact of the Catholic Emancipation Act of 1829, which allowed Catholics to hold public office, on the Church of England. Soames argues that this act led to a resurgence of Catholic influence in England and a corresponding decline in the influence of the Church of England. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Church of England and its relationship with the Roman Catholic Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
