Huguenot Heritage
Author: Robin D. GwynnPublisher: Liverpool University Press
ISBN: 1836241763
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
Director of the 1985 Huguenot Heritage tercentenary commemoration, Gwynn surveys the contributions to Britain and Ireland by the French-speaking Calvinist refugees who crossed the Channel between the 16th and 18th centuries. Among the topics are the situation in France, settlements in England, government reaction, crafts and trades, churches, opposition, the impact of Louis XIV's defeat, and assimilation. The first edition was published by Routledge in 1985; the second incorporates literature published and artefacts discovered since then, and is more comprehensively footnoted. All referencing material has been updated tin the light of new findings. And the plate section has been expanded to take into account recently available pictures of Huguenot artefacts and scenes.

Religion, Reform and Modernity in the Eighteenth Century
Author: Robert G. IngramPublisher: Boydell Press
ISBN: 9781843833482
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 346
Book Description
A new interpretation of English history and religion in the eighteenth century. The eighteenth century has long divided critical opinion. Some contend that it witnessed the birth of the modern world, while others counter that England remained an ancien regime confessional state. This book takes issue with both positions, arguing that the former overstate the newness of the age and largely misdiagnose the causes of change, while the latter rightly point to the persistence of more traditional modes of thought and behaviour, but downplay the era's fundamental uncertainty and misplace the reasons for and the timeline of its passage. The overwhelming catalyst for change is here seen to be war, rather than long-term social and economic changes. Archbishop Thomas Secker [1693-1768], the Cranmer or Laud of his age, and the hitherto neglected church reforms he spearheaded, form the particular focus of the book; this is the first full archivally-based study of a crucial but frequently ignored figure. ROBERT G. INGRAM is Assistant Professor at the Department of History, Ohio University.

The Huguenots: History and Memory in Transnational Context
Author: David J.B. TrimPublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004209697
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
The essays in this book examine the role of history and memory in shaping the transnational Huguenot diaspora. They explore the impact of Huguenot émigrés on the societies in which they settled and in particular the way that Huguenot history, and collective memory of that history, shaped the relationships between the Huguenots and their host communities. The essays show how a ‘Huguenot’ identity was preserved, re-shaped, and manipulated, both by the descendants of the original Huguenots and among the broader communities in which they settled. The essays also show how the collective memory of the Huguenot past that had emerged among European and American Protestants played a critical role in the transformation of Huguenot identity over four centuries. Contributors include H. H. Leonard, Gregory Dodds, Lisa Diller, Robin Gwynn, D. J. B. Trim, David Onnekink, Andrew C. Thompson, Vivienne Larminie, Randolph Vigne, Paul McGraw
