The Writings of John Henry Cardinal Newman (with Recommendations for Anglican Lurkers)


The beatification of John Henry Newman has been announced for September of this year. As a former Anglican, I'm a huge fan of Newman and look forward to this blessed event. Maybe I can find an excuse to go to Rome for this!

In the meantime, here's a list of Cardinal Newman's books.

For lurking Anglicans, I highly recommend the following works:
  • Newman's autobiographical Apologia Pro Vita Sua
  • Difficulties of Anglicans
  • Letter to Dr Pusey
As Bishop Conley warned me when I was an Anglican, reading Newman is detrimental to Anglican conviction. If you dare to do so, you will be led to Rome.

Newman's Anglican period

  • Arians of the Fourth Century (1833)
  • Tracts for the Times (1833–1841)
  • British Critic (1836–1842)
  • On the Prophetical Office of the Church (1837)
  • Lectures on Justification (1838)
  • Parochial and Plain Sermons (1834–1843)
  • Select Treatises of St. Athanasius (1842, 1844)
  • Lives of the English Saints (1843–44)
  • Essays on Miracles (1826, 1843)
  • Oxford University Sermons (1843)
  • Sermons on Subjects of the Day (1843)
