Originally published in 1913, this book presents a study of the
effect of the Puritan Revolution upon the Church of England and the
Universities, as institutions closely connected with the Church.
The text focuses on the immediate and material results of the
Revolution, rather than the influence exercised upon religious
thought, the future history of parties within the Church or the
relations of the Church to Dissent. Evidence is collected regarding
the methods through which the Revolution was accomplished and the
outward aspects of the Puritan movement. Appendices are also
included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in
Puritanism, British history and the history of Christianity.
This is a study of the origins, writing and reception of Dr John
Walker's 'The Sufferings of the Clergy' (1714), which was an
important account of the events of the Civil War period as they
affected individual localities and parishes as well as the clergy
themselves. Dr Tatham explores the circumstances in which Walker
wrote the book, the nature of the sources used to compile it and
the manner in which he used them as well as the contemporary
criticism that greeted its publication. He also includes a calendar
of Walker's collection of manuscripts in the Bodleian Library, two
letters from Walker concerning the book and a list of the principal
printed authorities cited by Walker.
