Atkinson, Nigel. Richard Hooker and the authority of scripture, tradition and reason : reformed theologian of the Church of England? / foreword by Alister McGrath. Vancouver: Regent College Publishing, 2005. Paperback, VG. Illustrated card covers with light shelfwear to corners. binding strong. xxii, 138pp., b/w illustrations. Contents clean and bright. "There is no doubt that Richard Hooker (1554-1600) is one of the most important writers in the history of the Church of England. However, since John Henry Newman presented him as a 'theologian of the via media' he has been consistently overlooked by evangelical Anglicans. This well-documented and detailed analysis of the theological first principles of the 'father of Anglicanism' challenges the traditional consensus. The author examines three key elements of Hooker's theology-namely, the authority of reason, tradition and Scripture and evaluates Hooker's approach in the light of his debates with contemporary Puritans including Walter Travers, Thomas Cartwright and William Tyndale. His views are then compared with the approaches of Erasmus and the Reformers Luther and Calvin. Finally, the interpretations of leading and influential Hooker scholars are examined to show how often his theological principles have been misrepresented. This important study concludes that Hooker's debt to the Reformation is greater and more profound than generally acknowledged and that Hooker is consistently closer the mainstream of Reformation thought than his Puritan opponents" (from the cover description).
