This international and interdisciplinary volume investigates
Protestant devotional identities in sixteenth- and
seventeenth-century England. Divided into two sections, the book
examines the 'sites' where these identities were forged - the
academy, printing house, household, theatre and prison - and the
'types' of texts that expressed them - spiritual autobiographies,
religious poetry and writings tied to the ars moriendi - providing
a broad analysis of social, material and literary forms of devotion
during England's Long Reformation. Through archival and
cutting-edge research, a detailed picture of 'lived religion'
emerges, which re-evaluates the pietistic acts and attitudes of
well-known and recently discovered figures. To those studying and
teaching religion and identity in early modern England, and anyone
interested in the history of religious self-expression, these
chapters offer a rich and rewarding read. -- .
