Tracts For The Times V5: For 1838-40 (1840) is a book written by members of the University of Oxford. The book is a collection of tracts that were published between 1838 and 1840. The tracts were written by members of the Oxford Movement, a group of Anglican theologians who sought to revive the Catholic elements of the Church of England. The tracts cover a variety of topics, including the authority of the Church, the sacraments, and the priesthood. The authors argue that the Church of England should embrace its Catholic heritage and reject the influences of the Protestant Reformation.
