This book explores the background and significance of the Public Worship Regulation Act of 1874, placing it within the context of historical and contemporary religious practices. It examines the legal battles that followed the Act's passing, exploring the complicated relationship between law and established religion in Victorian England, in which tensions between established and non-established denominations were rife. The author provides insight into the nature of religious ceremonies in the Church of England at the time and challenges popular misconceptions as to how much of the Act remains in force today. Through its discussion of different interpretations of religious law and practice, this book provides a more nuanced understanding of religious authority and the shifting position of the Church of England, extending to matters of ritual, doctrine, and the mysteries of faith.
