The Development of Anglican Moral Theology is the successor volume to The Origins of Anglican Moral Theology. It describes how Anglican theologians interacted closely with the moral philosophers of their day while providing a pastoral resource in the fast-changing period between 1680-1950. The book shows how vibrant and intellectually rigorous the tradition was, and includes detailed studies of the sermons of Butler, Wesley and Newman, the writings of William Law and Coleridge, and the later work of Maurice, Gore, Scott Holland, Moberly, William Temple and Kirk. This is the first account of this lively tradition of moral theology.

Peter H. Sedgwick, Ph.D. (1982), Durham University, was Principal of St. Michael’s College, Cardiff. He is a member of the Anglican Roman Catholic International Commission, Honorary Research Associate at Cardiff University and a fellow of the Center of Theological Inquiry, Princeton, USA. He has published widely, including The Origins of Anglican Moral Theology (Brill, 2018)
