From the Oxford English Dictionary to Books read.
A Suggestion to add earlier references on “Textualism” to the Oxford English Dictionary
Recently I did a search on Google Ngram that searches its catalogue of books to determine the earliest reference to “textualism.” It came up with three (1847, 1853, and 1857) references to pre-1863 mentions of textualism. Though the 1857 publication seems to be of a journal/magazine essay in 1856. Indeed all of them come up in a religious context.
Here is the Google Ngram link with the three references: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22textualism%22&lr=lang_en&biw=1920&bih=939&source=lnt&tbs=lr%3Alang_1en%2Ccdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F1%2F1800%2Ccd_max%3A12%2F31%2F1862&tbm=bks
This seems to be the earliest reference Google Ngram produced from 1847: https://books.google.com/books?id=5_AWAQAAIAAJ&pg=PA417&dq=%22textualism%22&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj8-JeE1LHeAhVLy1MKHTeuAwYQ6AEIKDAA#v=onepage&q=%22textualism%22&f=false
The text reads in the middle of the sentence, “It has instinctively opposed, in turn, the dry textualism of worth country parsons, the meagre naturalism of Paulus, the indifference of the literary clique, the idealism of Hegel, and lastly, the mythology of Strauss; but with poorer success at every crisis, because it has gradually resigned its original principle of spiritual life, and taken to dogmatism, which is dotage.”
The earliest usage of “textualism” reported by the Oxford English Dictionary comes from 1863. I believe, there are three sources prior to 1863 existing on Google’s Book repository.
