Excerpt from Anglicanism: Lectures on the Olaus Petri Foundation Delivered in Upsala During September, 1920 These lectures were designed with the object of assisting Swedish students to understand the highly perplexing phenomenon which is called Anglicanism, of which the extraordinary character is rarely appreciated even by English Churchmen, and which must needs present an aspect of baffling perplexity to foreigners. I desired to set before my hearers a statement which should give them the right point of view from which to regard the version of Christianity expressed in the law and standards of the Church of England. I invited them to note and weigh the influences by which modern Anglicanism has been shaped and coloured. Apart from the history the subject is wholly unintelligible, and yet it is precisely the history which is commonly ignored, or concealed, or misrepresented.
