The first scholarly edition of Sara Coleridge's religious writings.

Sara Coleridge and the Oxford Movement reveals a significant body of virtually unknown religious works by a woman writer. The first scholarly edition of Sara Coleridge's religious writings, it presents selections from works not published since the 1840s, and substantial extracts from a major unpublished work of religious dialogues.

'The volume carefully maps Coleridge's imaginative and spiritual development through the influence of Wordsworth and Southey, Tractarianism and her eventual critique of Anglo-Catholicism, and her Kantian embrace of a practical rather than mystical Christianity. An outstanding scholarly edition of a profoundly influential but much neglected theological voice.' — Emma Mason, Department of English and Comparative Literary Studies, University of Warwick, UK

'This magnificent edition sheds new light on the controversies surrounding the Oxford Movement. Sara Coleridge's literary gifts as well as philosophical erudition appear in her probing critique of the Tractarians and defence of her father, S. T. Coleridge. Her hitherto unpublished Dialogues on Regeneration, finely annotated in this book, is a major addition to the Victorian canon.' — James Vigus, Department of English, Queen Mary University of London, UK

'This excellent volume continues the retrieval of an important Victorian voice. Robin Schofield has gathered Sara Coleridge's fugitive religious writings and a selection from her major unpublished manuscripts.' — Peter Swaab, Department of English Literature, UCL, UK
