Tractarians was the name given to the leaders of the Oxford Revival because of their issuing a series of ‘Tracts for the Times’ between 1833 and 1841.John Greaves traces the history of the Movement, which was launched initially in 1833 to establish the Church of England as an institution founded by Jesus himself, as distinct from all human forms of government.
