Explore the long struggle over church power, belief, and ritual in England’s history.
This clear, readable work surveys centuries of faith, reform, and controversy, from medieval Catholic practice to the rise of the Church of England and the later ritual debates that divided Protestants.
Delving into the roots of the Reformation, this book lays out how English leaders shaped a national church and why the Real Presence became the central fault line. It traces shifts in worship, authority, and doctrine, showing how politics and theology intertwined to produce a church that was both Protestant and distinctly English.
Through vivid discussions of figures like Mary, Elizabeth, Cranmer, and Newman, readers see how ideas about sacraments, liturgy, and church governance sparked fierce clashes. The narrative also follows 19th‑ and early 20th‑century movements that challenged ritual practice within the established church and tested its boundaries with Nonconformity.
- How the idea of the Mass, the altar, and the Real Presence shaped centuries of debate.
- Key milestones in the creation of the Church of England and its separation from Rome.
- Personal journeys of reformers and reform-minded clergymen as they wrestled with tradition and change.
- Accounts of ritual controversies and how church authorities and the public responded.
Ideal for readers of church history, religious controversies, and England’s long conversation about faith and identity.
