Walter Headlam, His Letters and Poems
Excerpt from Walter Headlam, His Letters and Poems: With a Memoir by Cecil Headlam, and a Bibliography by L. Haward Walter George Headlam was born in London upon February 15, 1866.When he died, by a sudden mischance, at the age of forty-two, not Cambridge only, but the world of letters, suffered a loss not easily to be measured. His was a personality singularly complex and exceedingly rare in the history of Intellect. For not only had he made his mark in the academic world as a creative classical critic, who must take his rank with the greatest of the interpreters of Greek thought and language and art, but he combined with the industry and acumen of a scholar the temperament, the individuali...
Stewart Headlam's Radical Anglicanism
Standing in stark contrast to the conservative churchmen of Victorian Britain, the Anglican clergyman Stewart Headlam was a passionately progressive reformer, a champion of the working poor--especially women --a defender of the music hall performers his colleagues attacked as licentious, and, in short, a man of God who remained firmly and controversially engaged with the society in which he lived and worked. This book, the first significant study of Headlam since 1928, paints a rich and complex picture of this larger-than-life man of the cloth, charting the trail he blazed across the social, political, and religious landscape of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Britain.

Social Democracy in the Making
An expansive and ambitious intellectual history of democratic socialism from one of the world's leading intellectual historians and social ethicists The fallout from twenty years of neoliberal economic globalism has sparked a surge of interest in the old idea of democratic socialism--a democracy in which the people control the economy and government, no group dominates any other, and every citizen is free, equal, and included. With a focus on the intertwined legacies of Christian socialism and Social Democratic politics in Britain and Germany, this book traces the story of democratic socialism from its birth in the nineteenth century through the mid-1960s. Examining the tenets on which the movement was founded and how it adapted to different cultural, religious, and economic contexts from its beginnings through the social and political traumas of the twentieth century, Gary Dorrien reminds us that Christian socialism paved the way for all liberation theologies that make the struggles of oppressed peoples the subject of redemption. He argues for a decentralized economic democracy and anti-imperial internationalism.

Christian Socialist Revival, 1877-1914

Here is a comprehensive survey of the personalities and organizations responsible for the Christian socialist revival. The author presents a history of the Labour Party and an analysis of the theological and economic ideas of the Christian Socialists, comparing them with those of the earlier and better-known men of the 1850’s, and with their French originals. Originally published in 1968.
