The Unitarian Controversy, 1819-1823: Volume Two / Edition 1

by Bruce Kuklick

Overview

Originally published in 1987. The dispute between Leonard Woods, an American theologian and well known Calvinist, and Henry Ware, a preacher and theologian influential in the formation of Unitarianism, went on for four years and is reprinted here in its entirety. Although the combatants were concerned over whether God’s nature was one or three, other issues were more important for them, and these issues are discussed at length in their correspondence. This title will be of interest to students of history and religious studies.
