Religion and life cycles in early modern England assembles scholars
working in the fields of history, English literature and art
history to further our understanding of the intersection between
religion and the life course in the period c. 1550-1800. Featuring
chapters on Catholic, Protestant and Jewish communities, it
encourages cross-confessional comparison between life stages and
rites of passage that were of religious significance to all faiths
in early modern England. The book considers biological processes
such as birth and death, aspects of the social life cycle including
schooling, coming of age and marriage and understandings of
religious transition points such as spiritual awakenings and
conversion. Through this inclusive and interdisciplinary approach,
it seeks to show that the life cycle was not something fixed or
predetermined and that early modern individuals experienced
multiple, overlapping life cycles. -- .
