English Spirituality: Vol 1 From Ea by Spck

This wide-ranging historical survey provides an indispensable resource for all those concerned with exploring, teaching or studying English spirituality. All the main Christian traditions and a vast range of writers and spiritual themes, from Anglo-Saxon poems to late modern feminist spirituality, are included. Many lesser known figures and movements feature alongside the more famous names. The volumes are designed to give some idea of the astonishing richness and variety of responses made by English Christians to the call of the divine during the past two thousand years.

"* 'An invaluable book of reference [that] is also eminently readable' Theology * 'Gordon Mursell's English Spirituality is a welcome addition to current literature on the English spiritual tradition(s). It is comprehensive without being diffusive, and even-handed without losing a critical edge.' Anglican Theological Review"

The Right Revd Gordon Mursell is Bishop of Stafford. He was previously Dean of Birmingham Cathedral, tutor in spirituality at Salisbury and Wells Theological College, and team rector of Stafford. He is the author of Praying in Exile (DLT 2005) and editor of The Story of Christian Spirituality (Lion 2001).
