The Church in an Age of Danger: Parsons and Parishioners, 1660-1740 (Cambridge Studies in Early Modern British History) Book

This book looks at popular religion in early modern England, using detailed accounts of local conflicts to bring the religion of ordinary people to life. Unlike other studies, it examines not magical beliefs but orthodox religion. It counters the view that popular and elite culture in Europe and Britain became polarised by showing how the gentry and people co-operated in regulating religion. But while the clergy did not deserve their poor reputation, their defensiveness also prevented them from fulfilling popular religious needs.Read More
