This eighth volume of Studies in Church History contains twenty-six
papers read at two recent meetings of the Ecclesiastical History
Society. Popular religion, in theory and practice, within
established religious forms and outside them, against a background
of acceptance or of controversy, is examined in studies ranging
from Professor Momigliano's analysis of the attitude of the later
Roman historians to Professor Latreille's discussion of popular
piety in modern France. A number of papers focus on the attitudes
to sanctity and relics in the central Middle Ages. There is also a
significant and wide-ranging discussion centred on the theme of the
Presidential Address: post-Reformation popular religion both in its
local and general setting. These contributions clearly demonstrate
the significance of current research into social and economic
influences upon popular faith, practice and allegiance, and
indicate the large areas and difficult problems which require
further research.
