The Parker Society focused on preserving and promoting the works of key English Reformers from the sixteenth century, producing fifty-four volumes between 1840 and 1855. Established in response to the Tractarian movement, which criticized the English Reformation, the society sought to present these influential texts attractively to counter negative perceptions. Named after Matthew Parker, the first Elizabethan Archbishop of Canterbury, the society played a significant role in Anglican literature and historical scholarship.
