V, S, S. Coles

"V, S, S. Coles: Letters, Papers, Addresses, Hymns & Verses With a Memoir" offers a profound look into the spiritual and intellectual life of one of the most influential figures in the late 19th and early 20th-century Anglo-Catholic movement. Vincent Stuckey Stratton Coles, widely known as V.S.S. Coles, served as the Principal of Pusey House, Oxford, and was a beloved spiritual director and hymn-writer whose influence extended across the Church of England.This volume, meticulously edited by J.F. Briscoe, brings together a diverse selection of Coles's personal correspondence, theological essays, and public addresses, providing readers with an intimate portrait of his pastoral heart and deep devotion. In addition to his prose, the collection features a range of his hymns and verses, many of which remain significant within liturgical traditions. Accompanied by a detailed memoir, this work serves as both a biographical tribute and a primary source for understanding the development of Anglican spirituality during a period of significant ecclesiastical change. It is an essential resource for those interested in the history of the Oxford Movement, clerical leadership, and the enduring power of the Anglo-Catholic witness.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
