The five-volume Oxford History of Dissenting Protestant Traditions
series is governed by a motif of migration ('out-of-England'). It
first traces organized church traditions that arose in England as
Dissenters distanced themselves from a state church defined by
diocesan episcopacy, the Book of Common Prayer, the Thirty-Nine
Articles, and royal supremacy, but then follows those traditions as
they spread beyond England -and also traces newer traditions that
emerged downstream in other parts of the world from earlier forms
of Dissent. Secondly, it does the same for the doctrines, church
practices, stances toward state and society, attitudes toward
Scripture, and characteristic patterns of organization that also
originated in earlier English Dissent, but that have often defined
a trajectory of influence independent ecclesiastical organizations.
The Oxford History of Protestant Dissenting Traditions, Volume III
considers the Dissenting traditions of the United Kingdom, the
British Empire, and the United States in the nineteenth century. It
provides an overview of the historiography on Dissent while making
the case for seeing Dissenters in different Anglophone connections
as interconnected and conscious of their genealogical connections.
The nineteenth century saw the creation of a vast Anglo-world which
also brought Anglophone Dissent to its apogee. Featuring
contributions from a team of leading scholars, the volume
illustrates that in most parts of the world the later nineteenth
century was marked by a growing enthusiasm for the moral and
educational activism of the state which plays against the idea of
Dissent as a static, purely negative identity. This collection
shows that Dissent was a political and constitutional identity,
which was often only strong where a dominant Church of England
existed to dissent against.
