Synopsis
The Convert. By The Author Of 'The Two Rectors' by George Wilkins is a didactic narrative that uses a first-person frame to explore religious belief through a succession of encounters with different denominations. A British soldier-turned-narrator recounts his movement from despair and atheism toward faith after reading and debating with Socinians, Calvinists, Catholics, Quakers, and others. Across chapters titled The Soldier, The Socinian, Calvinism, The Anatomist, The Abbey, Catholicism, The Quaker, The Churchman, and The Maiden's Story, the work presents extended dialogues that test reason against revelation, scrutinize the Bible, and critique church practices. The plot culminates with an Anglican rector guiding the narrator toward a mature Anglican Christianity, while Eloise, a Catholic figure, evolves toward a Protestant path. Throughout, Wilkins treats religious controversy with earnestness and irony, insisting that true faith must harmonize scripture, conscience, and compassion. The Convert. seeks to illuminate the moral and intellectual demands of belief, and to affirm a Christian faith grounded in scriptural truth, orderly worship, and a hopeful regard for humanity.
