Johann Joseph Ignaz von Dollinger letter, 1882 Dec. 26.

Dollinger wrote this letter on December 26, 1882 in response to a request from the editor of The Nineteenth Century: a Monthly Review that he supply an article on E.B. Pusey for the publication. Dollinger declined, saying that his knowledge of Pusey's theological view was "fragmentary." He remarked on comments about Pusey's contribution to the Church of England that he had made recently in a letter to Gladstone and on his own theological differences with Pusey on the subjects of the Athanasian Creed and the practice of confession. Dollinger also explained that Henry Parry Liddon was writing a life of Pusey and encouraged the editor to delay any critical review of Pusey until after the publication of that work. He concluded his letter by recommending a Dr. Geffken, professor at the University of Strassburgh, as someone who might be interested in contributing to The Nineteenth Century. The letter was written eleven years after his excommunication from the Roman Catholic church.
