This book is a wide ranging new history of a key period in the
history of the church in England, from the 'Glorious Revolution' of
1688-89 to the Great Reform Act of 1832. This was a tumultuous time
for both church and state, when the relationship between religion
and politics was at its most fraught."The Church of England 1688 -
1832"considers the consequences of these important events and the
rapid changes it brought to the Anglican Church and to national
politics
Aspects of the social history of the Church are also discussed,
including the role of the Church in eighteenth century culture, and
the development of nationhood. Anglican attitudes to European
Protestantism and Methodism are also evaluated
. Drawing on a wide range of contemporary sources, "The Church of
England 1688-1832"presents evidence of the widespread Anglican
commitment to harmony between those of differing religious views
and suggests that High and Low Churchmanship was less divergent
than usually assumed. This is both a detailed history of the Church
in the eighteenth century and a fresh and stimulating re-evaluation
of the nature of Anglicanism and its role in society.
