Works by Edward Bouverie Pusey
- Eirenicon
Description: An “eirenicon” is a statement that attempts to harmonize conflicting doctrines. In his Eirenicon, Pusey attempts to harmonize the doctrines and practices of Anglicanism and Catholicism. As a leader in the 19th century Oxford Movement (also known as the Tractarian Movement), he sought to find some way to unite the Church of England and the Church of Rome once more. Pusey wrote the Eirenicon in a letter to William Lockhart, who was the first of the Oxford Movement to fully convert to Roman Catholicism.

- Minor Prophets - A Commentary Explanatory and Practical: Volume 1
Description: Edward Bouverie Pusey's commentary on the
Minor Prophets is both, as he intended, explanatory and
practical. Volume 1 contains Pusey's commentary on the
first five Minor Prophets: Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, and Jonah. The
commentary on each prophet is preceded by a general introduction which
familiarizes readers with important background information. In preparing
for this commentary, Pusey studied the meaning of these texts for over
thirty years, an amazing feat of dedication. Of the prophets Pusey
states, "The prophets are partly teachers of righteousness and rebukers
of unrighteousness; partly they declared things then to come, a nearer
and more distant future... and the everlasting righteousness which God
will to bring in through the Coming of Christ." Readers will find
Pusey's exposition of the Minor Prophets both spiritually and
intellectually fulfilling.
