The Churchman<\/em> is an Anglican theological journal published by The Church Society<\/a><\/em>. It was first published in 1879 and the first series (known as the old series<\/em>) of 14 volumes ran until 1886. The new series began in 1887 and continues to this day. In 2020 the journal changed its name to The Global Anglican.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2012 I approached the Director of the Church Society with an offer to digitise the journal. The Church Society\u2019s archive of The Churchman<\/em> was lost in a fire many years ago and so it has been necessary to obtain copies from several libraries around the UK, as complete sets are extremely rare. In December I was able to borrow the remaining volumes of the Old Series from Wycliffe Hall in Oxford and this series is now complete. As for the new series, only 7 issues are still missing [Vol. 12, No\u2019s 109-111, 120 (1897-1898); Vol. 15, No\u2019s 145-147 (1900-1901)]. If anyone has copies of these that they would be willing to make available for scanning, please let me know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you would like to view the 784 articles in the old series and the 5,880 currently available in the new series, please use the links below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
