Religion, Society and Reform, 1800-1914 by Andrina Stiles
This title explores the role of religious groups in bringing about humanitarian and educational reforms in the 19th century. It considers religion in an industrializing society - particularly the role of religion in education, politics and the lives of the labouring classes. Individual reformers such as Shaftesbury, Fry and Booth are discussed, as is collective action and the motives behind reform. This book forms part of the series designed to meet the needs of A Level and Higher Grade History students. Without assuming detailed prior knowledge, each volume provides an introduction to its subject along with an analysis of the main issues, themes and historical interpretations of the topic. Relevant documentary extracts are integrated with and support the text. Student guidance sections in each chapter provide a diagrammatic summary plus advice on note-taking and how to answer source-based and essay questions.| SKU | Unavailable |
