The Culture of English Puritanism 1560-1700 by Christopher Durston
This collection of essays is intended to contribute to the debate on the nature and extent of early-modern puritanism. It highlights several important aspects of this culture, such as sermon gadding, fasting, the strict observance of Sunday and iconoclasm.
'A well-planned collection with firm editorial control, and commissioned essays from professionals who know how to write' - Christopher Haigh, The Journal of Ecclesiastical History 'A first-rate introduction to seventeenth-century English Puritanism for those who have little previous knowledge of the subject.' - Barry Coward, History Today
