The essays in this volume explore the important connections between religion, politics and identity in Britain during the 'long' eighteenth century. Asking broad questions about the identity and character of religion in Britain, the contributions touch such issues as the religious beliefs of the Jacobite rebels, the definitions of 'high' and 'low' Anglican churchmanship, and relations between religious dissenters and the established church. Through biographical analysis of a number of important individuals including Bishop Shipley, Richard Price, Thomas Secker, Charles Leslie, Sir George Pretyman-Tomline, John Henry Williams and Archdeacon Daubeny, the book makes an unambiguous and forceful statement about the centrality of religion to any proper understanding of British public life between the Restoration and the Reform Bill.
