Over the summer one of our projects was to complete cataloging for a small collection of Christadelphian titles we recently acquired. \u00a0Tracing origins to John Thomas, the Christadelphians<\/a> began in the United States but emerged with vigor in England in the later 19th century. \u00a0The movement shares restorationist strategies for Biblical interpretation, and eschews traditional theological formulations of the nature of Jesus Christ, Unitarianism and the Trinity. \u00a0Thomas’ earliest controversy centered on the practice of rebaptism. \u00a0 With his closest family and circle of influence, he chided Alexander Campbell for his stance toward the unimmersed. The Campbell-Thomas exchange gained notoriety through a series of letters<\/a> between Alexander Campbell and “a sister from Lunenburg [Virginia].”<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The theological rationale for Thomas’ positions found expression in print: monographs, periodical literature, tracts, and pamphlets. \u00a0The materials we acquired include primary sources such as Thomas’ seminal work\u00a0Elpis Israel<\/em>, substantial runs of periodicals such as\u00a0The<\/em> Christadelphian<\/em> and Herald of the Kingdom and The Age to Come, <\/em>and an assortment of materials by and about Thomas’ chief protege Robert Roberts. \u00a0Pictured here are the books and periodicals, fresh from cataloging, and ready for the shelf. \u00a0Still in progress are dozens of tracts and pamphlets and loose periodical issues.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The addition of these materials to our collection affords our researchers opportunity to more broadly and deeply explore the issues at play in the Stone-Campbell and related movements. \u00a0It is another step forward in building our collections to better serve our users…they are on the shelf and ready for use.<\/p>\n
