"Beyond the Reformation?" sheds fresh light on divisive issues of authority in the Christian Church and puts them in a new historical and ecumenical perspective. This book is a sequel to Paul Avis' successful "Anglicanism and the Christian Church: Theological Resources in Historical Perspective" (T&T Clark, 1E 1990, 2E 2002). In this major, ground-breaking work, Anglican theologian and ecumenist Paul Avis adds to his repertoire of studies of authority in the Christian Church, brings together historical, confessional and ecumenical aspects of ecclesiology, and charts a course for convergence between the major traditions on the thorny questions of authority, primacy and unity.
