The background and development of 'Evangelical Catholicism' and its expression in the ministry of William Augustus Muhlenberg
No full textWilliam Augustus Muhlenberg (1796-1877) is considered by many
historians of the Episcopal Church in the United States of America
to have been its most significant leader of the nineteenth century.
During the course of his ministry Muhlenberg expressed an understanding of the Christian faith which he called 'Evangelical Catholicism',
the many expressions of which provided the basis for reforms and
innovations affecting every aspect of the Church's life. Although
many studies have been made of the many aspects of Muhlenberg's evangelical Catholicism they have overlooked a valuable resource in the
background and development of this ideal. This research traces the
origins of Muhlenberg's evangelical Catholicism to this primary source
by examining the various expressions of Muhlenberg's ideal in the
areas of Christian ethics, Church History, Christian Worship, Church
Unity and Biblical Studies. The result of this study has been the
discovery of the origins of Muhlenberg's ideal in the canonically
prescribed theological curriculum known as the 'Course of Ecclesiastical Studies of 1804', or more commonly, the 'Bishops' List'.
The method involved in tracing the background and development of
evangelical Catholicism has been to examine Muhlenberg's innovations
and reforms in the light of the works he read in preparation for
ordination as well as to consider the influence upon him of contemporary movements in nineteenth, century Anglicanism. This research shows
that evangelical Catholicism is expressed by Muhlenberg as a synthesis
of the authors included within the highly eclectic, comprehensive,
and often contradictory, 'Bishops' List', thus identifying the primary
sources of Muhlenberg's concept of evangelical Catholicism and establishing a valuable means for the examination of the ideas which
influenced William Augustus Muhlenberg and have had an enduring effect
upon the Episcopal Church in the United States of America

‘Much of Sala, and but Little of Russia''A Journey Due North,' Household Words, and the Birth of a Special Correspondent
No full textWhen Dickens sent George Augustus Sala as a special correspondent to Russia just after the end of the Crimean War, he launched him in what was to become his best-known role as a journalist. Comprising twenty-two articles which appeared in weekly instalments from 4 October 1856 to 14 March 1857, Sala's essays are of interest not only for their representation of one of the significant geographical and cultural "others" of the mid-Victorian imagination, but for their distinctive style, which is vibrant and polyglot, eschewing political analysis and statistical information in favour of the flâneur's "gastronomy of the eye" – the vivid metropolitan travel writing so popular with mid-nineteenth-century readers
