Cet ouvrage présente au public francophone la figure de Samuel Wilberforce, et porte à sa connaissance la vitalité de l’anglicanisme victorien dont il fut une figure si importante comme évêque d’Oxford puis de Winchester (1845-1873). Au début du xixe siècle, l’Église d’Angleterre (ou Église anglicane) court le risque de devenir tout à fait obsolète. Rejetée par beaucoup comme un simple organe étatique, apparemment privée de toute énergie et de toute capacité à se réinventer par les mouvements de réveil religieux du siècle précédent, elle paraît également incapable de s’adapter au nouveau contexte philosophique et socio-économique de la révolution industrielle. Toutefois, à partir des années 1840, l’Église d’Angleterre réinvestit son rôle pastoral et spirituel afin de rester fidèle à sa fonction proverbiale et traditionnelle d’Église de la Nation. On le verra, ce n’est pas un hasard si l’épiscopat de Samuel Wilberforce coïncide avec cette évolution spectaculaire de son Église. Même 150 ans après sa mort, la vie et l’œuvre de Samuel Wilberforce ont beaucoup à nous apprendre concernant la place des Églises dans la Cité, ou la relation entre foi et science.

Amid present-day conflagrations, this illuminating book reminds us of the sources, and profound consequences, of Christian fundamentalism in the sixteenth century. Simpson focuses on the cultural transformation in early modern England that allowed common people to read the Bible for the first time. The last wave of fundamentalist reading in the West provoked 150 years of violent upheaval; as we approach a second wave, this powerful book alerts us to our peril.

During the last decade of Henry VIII's life, his Protestant subjects struggled to reconcile two loyalties: to their Gospel and to their king. This book tells the story of that struggle and describes how a radicalised English Protestantism emerged from it. Focusing on the critical but neglected period 1539-47, Dr Ryrie argues that these years were not the 'conservative reaction' of conventional historiography, but a time of political fluidity and ambiguity. Most evangelicals continued to hope that the king would favour their cause, and remained doctrinally moderate and politically conformist. The author examines this moderate reformism in a range of settings - in the book trade, in the universities, at court and in underground congregations. He also describes its gradual eclipse, as shifting royal policy and the dynamics of the evangelical movement itself pushed reformers towards the more radical, confrontational Protestantism which was to shape the English identity for centuries.

The practice of swearing oaths was at the centre of the English Reformation. On the one hand, oaths were the medium through which the Henrician regime implemented its ideology and secured loyalty among the people. On the other, they were the tool by which the English people embraced, resisted and manipulated royal policy. Jonathan Michael Gray argues that since the Reformation was negotiated through oaths, their precise significance and function are central to understanding it fully. Oaths and the English Reformation sheds new light on the motivation of Henry VIII, the enforcement of and resistance to reform and the extent of popular participation and negotiation in the political process. Placing oaths at the heart of the narrative, this book argues that the English Reformation was determined as much by its method of implementation and response as it was by the theology or political theory it transmitted.

The Book of Common Prayer is one of the most important and influential books in English history, but it has received relatively little attention from literary scholars. This study seeks to remedy this by attending to the prayerbook's importance in England's political, intellectual, religious, and literary history. The first half of the book presents extensive analyses of the Book of Common Prayer's involvement in early modern discourses of nationalism and individualism, and argues that the liturgy sought to engage and textually reconcile these potentially competing cultural impulses. In its second half, Liturgy and Literature traces these tensions in subsequent works by four major authors - Sidney, Shakespeare, Milton, and Hobbes - and contends that they operate within the dialectical parameters laid out in the prayerbook decades earlier. Rosendale's analyses are supplemented by a brief history of the Book of Common Prayer, and by an appendix which discusses its contents.
