The third and concluding volume of Maurice Cowling's magisterial
sequence examines three related strands of English thought -
latitudinarianism, the Christian thought which has assumed that
latitudinarianism gives away too much, and the post-Christian
thought which has assumed that Christianity is irrelevant or
anachronistic. As in previous volumes, Maurice Cowling conducts his
argument through a series of encounters with individual thinkers,
including Burke, Disraeli, the Arnolds, Tennyson and Tawney in the
first half, and Darwin, Keynes, Orwell, Leavis and Berlin in the
second. Central to the whole is Mr Cowling's contention that the
modern mind cannot escape from religion. Religion and Public
Doctrine in Modern England represents a massive contribution to the
intellectual and cultural history of modern England, of interest to
historians, literary and cultural critics, theologians,
philosophers, economists, as well as to that broader reading public
with a serious interest in the making of the English mental
landscape.
