In church historical literature there have already been several attempts to present the “History of the Christian Church of the 19th century.” The first experience of this kind was Gieseler’s essay “Ecclesiastical History of Modern Times from 1814 to the Present” (in German), which constitutes the fifth volume of his course on general church history (Bonn 1855). This work is distinguished by its wealth of material and detailed indication of sources, but the thread of the narrative in it is carried only to the end of the 40s, therefore, it covers only the first half of the century. Next to it stands Baur’s work “Ecclesiastical History of the 19th Century,” which is distinguished by its clear, although not devoid of bias, presentation, especially in the essay on the development of theological ideas (edited by Zeller after the author’s death in Tübingen 1862). Here the story extends only to the end of the 50s and, therefore, also covers only half a century. The complete picture of the 19th century is captured in Nippold’s extensive work Handbuch der Neuesten Kirchengechichte in the 3rd edition (three large volumes of 800 pages each with additions). The work is extremely thorough, representing the last word of German-Protestant church historical science on issues of the history of the 19th century; but at the same time, very original in presentation, which, together with the extreme subjectivity of the author, in places falling into the tone of a polemical pamphlet, significantly undermines the merits of this work. Then a detailed account of the history of the 19th century is given in the famous courses of church history by Kurtz (the latest 13th edition edited by Prof. Bonwetsch and Tschakkert, Leipzig 1899), Alzog and Gase (in his "Church History on the basis of the Academy: Lectures", 2nd ed. 1898). In particular, the recent history of the Roman Catholic Church has found many thorough researchers. In addition to the 2nd volume specially dedicated to her in Nippold’s work, one can also mention: Pius Gams, Gcschichte der Kirche Christi im XIX jahrh. Innsbruck 1856, and especially H. Bruck, Gcschichte der Kath. Kirche im XIX Jahrhundert. Volumes I–III, Mainz 1887–1899 (before the cultural struggle of 1870). From the Protestant side Fred. Nielsen, DieRomische Kirche in XIX Jahrh,” Gotha 1878, are very lively essays that form the basis of our proposed department on the history of Roman Catholicism in the 19th century. These works also contain all private sources and manuals on the history of individual popes. For a description of the Ultramontane movement itself in the 19th century, see the detailed work of the priest. I. V. Arsenyeva “Ultramontane movement in the 19th century. up to and including the Vatican Council. Kharkov 1895”, where all the most important Russian literature is indicated. Appendix II (Old Catholicism) The history of Old Catholicism found a thorough researcher in the person of V. A. Kerensky in his dissertation. "Old Catholicism" (in its history and teachings). Kazan 1894, where all related literature is listed. In addition, rich material is contained in spiritual magazines over the last 30 years, especially in “Christ. Readings", "Orthodox. Review", "Wanderer", "Church Bulletin" (many articles by Archpriest I.L. Yanyshev), etc. Finally, an abundant source on the history and teachings of Old Catholicism is the "International Theological Journal" (Revue international de Théologie), which during the eight years of its existence, under the experienced leadership of Prof. Michaud (1893-1900), gave a lot of articles on all kinds of related issues. Old Catholicism issues and served as a mediator in the exchange of theological views for theologians of all independent churches, including the Russian one. Appendix III (Protetantism in the 19th century) Literature on the history of Protestantism in the 19th century is indicated in the text itself. Appendix IV (The Anglican Church in the 19th century) The life and history of the Church of England in the 19th century has not yet found its historian and remains unexamined in English literature. In entire history courses, historians bring the 19th century to various periods and end at various dates. Rich in knowledge and a remarkable synthesis of the main ideas and trends in the history of the Anglican Church, H. O. Wakeman (An Introduction to the History of the Church of England) reaches back to the eighties, but it is poor in factual material and indispensable for those familiar with the pragmatic history of the Anglican Church. A. S h. Jennings' (Ecclesia Anglicana) ends in the seventies and is unusually brief in presenting the history of the Church of England in the 19th century. A. N. Noge (History of the Church of England) indicates all the most important facts up to the 90s, is distinguished by remarkable clarity and simplicity of presentation, but it is necessarily brief. A. N. Perry (The students’ English Church History, III Periodi) is the author of many historical monographs and works, more complete and richer in content than the previously mentioned manuals. He brings his presentation up to 1S88, but he has no clarity either in the presentation or in the distribution of the material. His work is replete with quotations from documents, but leaves much to be desired in terms of processing. For the history of the late 18th century, the work “The English Church in the eighteenth Century, By Abbey and Overton”, for an introduction to Methodism – Robert Southey’s essay “The Life of Wesley”. The first thirty years of the 19th century are scientifically presented and processed by Overton (John Henry) in his “The English Church in the nineteenth century” 1800–1833. The history of the Oxford Movement is described in the Oxford Movement Twelve years 1833–1843 by Newman's contemporary and friend Church Richard William - a book that reads with the interest of a novel, imbued with the deep feeling of a person who personally experienced the events he describes. Here it is necessary to mention the classic Apologia pro vita sua of Cardinal Newman, “Lives of Twelve good men” by Burgon and Tracts for the Tunes By members of the University of Oxford. For the history of the ritualistic movement: Davidson (R Thomas) Life of Archibald Campbell Tait, and The Life of Ed. W. Benson By his son A. S. Benson, as well as Liddon (Henry Perry) Life of Ed. Pusey. To characterize the liberal party. Dean Stanley "The Life and Correspondence of Thomas Arnold", and finally "The Lambeth Conferences" Ed. by R. T. Davidson."
