THE 'OXFOR GROUP' A SENIOR MEMBER has recently asked for information con-
cerning the Group Movement. The following is a short bibliography of literature dealing with the subject which it is thought might be useful to those who are anxious to understand the aims and principles of the movement, and, at the same time, to know upon what grounds it has been criticized. The list of articles, &c., which is appended, does not claim to be a complete bibliography, nor does it contain actual propaganda, or the official publications of the Group. All types of opinion have been represented in the selected articles, which are mainly by men who have had actual experience of Group methods in Oxford. `Buchmanism.' The Rev. J. W. C. Wand, Dean of Oriel. [Theology, August 1930.] `The Groups.' The Rev. J. S. Bezzant, Fellow of Exeter College. [The Guardian, December II and r8, 1931.] `The Groups.' The Rev. J. S. Bezzant. [The Modern Churchman, January 1932.] `The "Oxford Group".' Canon L. W. Grensted, Oriel Professor of the Philosophy of the Christian Religion.

See especially May 2, 1930, October 30, November 6, November 13, December II, December 18, December 24, 1931, January 1,1932. The following articles appeared on five successive Sundays in The Sunday Referee. They are definitely of a propagandist nature and do not pretend to be of any critical or scholarly value. They, however, serve to give some illustration of the history and methods of the Group in. Oxford and elsewhere. They are all by different writers and are entitled: `Oxford's new religious movement.' [July I2, 1931.] `A remarkable faith and prayer wedding at Oxford.' [July 19.] `Some real miracles in Harley Street.' [July 26.] `How Oxford's new movement began.' [August 2.] `Oxford Group in Liverpool.' [August 9.]
