Part of the One Church?
Part of One Church offers a classical understanding of the Church of Englands identity and its place as part of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. Roger Greenacre explains the theological principles behind Anglo-Catholic views of the ordination of women, addressing issues that remain topical and significant. Though a supporter of the womens ordination himself, he articulates with creative courtesy the theological and ecclesiological reasoning why so many cannot accept it. Rogers frame of reference is wide: his thinking and writing are deeply enriched by the Anglican tradition and his hope is that its distinctive heritage might be brought into communion with the Church Catholic.
Maiden, Mother and Queen
The rekindling of devotion to Mary has been one of the many gifts of the Catholic movement to the Church of England, and there are few better exponents of it than Roger Greenacre. Here he traces the way that Mary has been perceived throughout Anglican history, from the Middle Ages to today, and examines her role in ecumenical dialogue.
The Sacrament of Easter
This highly readable exploration of the church's liturgy from Ash Wednesday to Pentecost clearly shows why Easter is not only the climax of the Christian year but also the center of the church's worship and doctrine. The authors examine the common liturgical traditions shared by both Anglicans and Roman Catholics.
1984 Studies and Commentaries

Allchin on "God's Majesty and Mary." Other contributions are Louis W eil, Harry R. Smythe, Geoffrey Rowell, and Roger T. Greenacre.
A Latter-Day Tractarian: Dom Gregory Dix
Best known for his two seminal works, The Apostolic Tradition of Saint Hippolytus (1937) and The Shape of the Liturgy (1945), Dom Gregory Dix demonstrated many of the traits of the Tractarians. This work will compare and contrast Dix with the leaders of the Oxford Movement and show that he could be accurately referred to as a Latter-Day Tractarian.

The Tree of Life
The tree of life is an iconic visual symbol at the edge of religious thought over the last several millennia. As a show of its significance, the tree bookends the Christian canon; yet scholarship has paid it minimal attention in the modern era. In The Tree of Life a team of scholars explore the origin, development, meaning, reception, and theology of this consequential yet obscure symbol. The fourteen essays trek from the origins of the tree in the texts and material culture of the ancient Near East, to its notable roles in biblical literature, to its expansion by early church fathers and Gnostics, to its rebirth in medieval art and culture, and to its place in modern theological thought.
