Exploring the relationship between identity and religion in British
Fishing Communities during the 19th and early 20th centuries, this
volume focuses on three communities in the UK: Scarborough, Filey
and Grimsby. The study offers a brief overview of the development
of these communities and outlines the nature of the relationship
between institutionalised and popular religion. It explores
religion as a range of discourses or narratives that provide us
with a way of viewing this matrix of meaning that has had a
significant influence on the construction and maintenance of
identity. It also examines the role of ritual and performance, both
of which have been shown to play an important part in the daily
lives of community members, not least in helping to provide and
reinforce a sense of security, stability and belonging.
