The faculty papers of Ernest Trice Thompson
| Creator | Ernest Trice Thompson |
| Description | Union Presbyterian Seminary houses the faculty papers of Ernest Trice Thompson (1894-1985). He was Professor of Church History at Union for many years, and editor of The Presbyterian Outlook; he also wrote the definitive history Presbyterians in the South (1963). Ernest Trice Thompson was a strong advocate for a Social Gospel interpretation of Christian life, and therefore an early and persistent voice for desegregation, at a time when this position was a costly one within the white Southern Presbyterian Church. |
