Protestantism and National Identity: Britain and Ireland, c.1650–c.1850 - Softcover
The years 1650-1850 saw the creation of the United Kingdom and its emergence as a world power. According to much recent literature--especially Linda Colley's Britons--Protestantism was central to this process, giving the British a sense of uniqueness, unity and imperial destiny. This collection of essays examines and challenges this religious contribution to "Britishness" and suggests radical new ways to understand the "British problem" and British and Irish development during the "long eighteenth century."

Review:
"Protestantism and National Identity is thus an important volume, amply demonstrating the importance of religion for any discussion of national identity with the English-speaking world,....Editors and contributors alike are to be congratulated for sticking so successfully to a common agenda while at the same time remaining willing to challenge, and where necessary subvert, its basic assumptions." S.J. Connolly, Church History

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume traces the complex contribution which protestantism made to national identity in the British Isles between the Stuart and the Victorian age. Often challenging existing work, the essays both question whether nationalism was a secular and 'modern' phenomenon, and ask whether Protestantism could support any simple vision of a united, imperial, and 'elect' Britain. Covering a wide variety of subjects, the authors show that whilst the reformed faith was always central to 'British' self-awareness, it could also divide the peoples of Britain and Ireland, could cast doubt on their greatness, and could dissolve any insistence on the uniqueness of these nations. The collection thus takes the study of religion's contribution to nationality beyond simple acknowledgement of its importance, and suggests radical new ways to understand British and Irish development during the 'long eighteenth century'.
