Drawing upon a multi-disciplinary methodology employing diverse
written sources, material practices and vivid life histories, Faith
in the family seeks to assess the impact of the Second Vatican
Council on the ordinary believer, alongside contemporaneous shifts
in British society relating to social mobility, the sixties, sexual
morality and secularisation. Chapters examine the changes in the
Roman Catholic liturgy and Christology; devotion to Mary, the
rosary and the place of women in the family and church, as well as
the enduring (but shifting) popularity of Saints Bernadette and
Therese. Appealing to students of modern British gender and
cultural history, as well as a general readership interested in
religious life in Britain in the second half of the twentieth
century, Faith in the family illustrates that despite unmistakable
differences in their cultural accoutrements and interpretations of
Catholicism, English Catholics continued to identify with and
practise the 'Faith of Our Fathers' before and after Vatican II. --
