The thirty papers which comprise this volume are selected from
those delivered at the summer and winter conferences of the
Ecclesiastical History Society in 1971 and 1972. The volume opens
with three important, wide ranging surveys of the nature and types
of religious orthodoxy and dissent in the early Christian
centuries. A further group of papers considers the emergence and
treatment of earlier medieval heresies, while a number of
contributions concerned with Lollardy have their focus in M. J.
Wilks' examination of relations between Wyclif and Hus. For
developments in more modern times K.T. Ware supplies a wider
perspective to a rich and varied series of papers on more familiar
matters in British, Continental and American history. In this
volume, considerable attention is paid to the relationship of
movements of protest and dissent to their social, intellectual,
cultural and political backgrounds: in this many of the authors
reflect the interest in 'religious sociology' which characterises
much contemporary Continental work in the field of ecclesiastical
history.
