History

A brief history

John Henry Parker (1806–1884) took over his uncle Joseph Parker’s Oxford bookselling and publishing house in 1832 and made it the chief publisher of the Tractarian movement.1 From 1838 he brought out the Library of the Fathers — the series of patristic translations edited by Pusey, Keble, and, until his conversion to Rome, Newman — together with the London house of Rivington.2 An antiquary as well as a publisher, Parker wrote widely on Gothic architecture and later kept the photographic record of Rome. After his day the firm continued as James Parker & Co., which went on to co-publish the second series of Schaff’s Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, carrying the Oxford Movement’s patristic scholarship into the American set that revised it.
