 Arian or semi-Arian views had much vogue during the 18th century, both in the Church and among dissenters.The word "Unitarian" had been circulating in private letters in England, in reference to imported copies of such publications as the "Library of the Polish Brethren who are called Unitarians" (1665), Henry Hedworth was the first to use the word "Unitarian" in print in English (1673), and the word first appears in a title in Stephen Nye's "A brief history of the Unitarians, called also Socinians" (1687).It was construed in a broad sense to cover all who, with whatever differences, held to the unipersonality of the Divine Being.
