Description
F. D. Maurice (1805-72) was one of Victorian Britain's most controversial thinkers.
Although he came from a Unitarian family and counted leading Unitarians as his friends, their influence on his work has never been seriously examined. The purpose of this new book is to look at his life and teaching in the light of Unitarianism.
Maurice's faith had a distinctly Christological emphasis, but he continued to value his Unitarian heritage.
His concern with the Fatherhood of God and the dignity of the human race owes much to his family background.
Dr Young's study opens with a compact history of Unitarianism during the lives of F.
D. Maurice and his father, a Unitarian minister. A series of biographical sketches draws on hitherto unpublished material to set Maurice's work in its historical context.
The final chapters compare the central themes of his theology with the teaching of his Unitarian contemporaries.
