From 1570 to 1640, Protestantism became the leading moral and
intellectual force in England. During these seven decades of rapid
social change, the English Protestants were challenged to make
"morally and spiritually comprehensible" a new pattern of
civilization. In numerous sermons and tracts such men as Donne,
Hall, Hooker, Laud, and Perkins explored the meaning of man and his
society. The nature of the Protestant mind is a crucial question in
modern historiography and sociology. Drawing on the writings of
these important years, the authors find that the real genius of the
Protestant mind was not "Puritanism," but the via media, the
reconciliation of religious and social tensions. "'Puritanism,'"
the authors show, "is a word, not a thing." Originally published in
1961. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books
from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These editions preserve the original texts of these important books
while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase
access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of
books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in
1905.
