  • Westminster Assembly Project For more than 350 years most of the original manuscript minutes of the Westminster Assembly have remained unpublished. These official minutes record the debates of the English, Scottish and French theologians at plenary sessions of the Assembly as well as the Assembly’s inner workings and resolutions. The large three-volume manuscript of the minutes is housed in Dr Williams’s Library, London. These volumes contain 550,000 words and span the years 1643 to 1652. While much of the third volume was published in the late nineteenth century, it was based on an imperfect transcript. This project intends to publish all three volumes of the original manuscript minutes in Dr Williams’s Library, in addition to the recently discovered papers of the Assembly. The publication of The Minutes and Papers of the Westminster Assembly will more than triple the available sources on the Assembly and will fill a major gap in our understanding of the Assembly and its documents.
