Before the outbreak of hostilities between Charles I and the Long
Parliament, the King had authorized a regular monthly fast for the
realm which members of parliament later adopted as a program of
national humiliation. At the invitation of individual members of
parliament, two preachers, generally leading puritan clerics
connected with the Westminster Assembly, which had been convened
for the purpose of reforming the Church of England, were invited to
speak. Drawing from some 240 published sermons, Professor Wilson
presents a survey of the program, giving detailed scrutiny to the
form and contents of the sermons. His aim throughout is to clarify
the puritans' conceptions of the relationship between their
religious movement and the political events of the period, and to
assess the importance of these sermons for the interpretation of
Puritanism. Originally published in 1969. 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.
