E-grāmata: Oxford History of Protestant Dissenting Traditions, Volume III: The Nineteenth Century

I recommend readers look at Volume 3 in whatever format they can, as there is plenty to interest the historian of Unitarianism. The word Unitarian in the index has no fewer than 23 separate sub headings, most containing multiple page references. * Transactions Of The Unitarian Historical Society * This volume provides many fresh angles of vision and its editors are to be commended. * Journal of British Studies * this work is thorough and rewarding. * Robert Jones, Congregational History Society Magazine * As a learned and concise summary of key themes in the history of the Protestant Dissenting traditions, distilling the work of established scholars and incorporating the latest research, this is a very welcome volume, and the rest of the series is awaited with eager anticipation. * Martin Wellings, Book Reviews Editor of Wesley and Methodist Studies, Wesley and Methodist Studies * I find it hard to imagine how one might have done a better job of condensing the range of nineteenth-century Protestant Dissenting thought and practice into a single volume. The choice of topics is thoughtful; the essays are informative and lucid; and the scholarship is impeccable throughout (with the notes alone providing a rich treasure trove of sources). In their series introduction, Larsen and Noll write that "[ h]owever imprecise the category of 'Dissent' must remain, the volumes in this series are guaranteedto delight readers with the wealth of their insight" (xix). It is a bold claim, but one that is certainly borne out in this case. * Mark Knight, Victorian Studies * This volume contains much that is stimulating, illuminating, provocative, and critical for historians of nineteenth-century religion. * Martin Spence, Fides et Historia * ...[ T]his is a very welcome volume, and the rest of the series is awated with eager anticipation. * Martin Wellings, Wesley and Methodis Studies * The Oxford History of Protestant Dissenting Traditions is an important, illuminating, and well-produced volume. Individual essays contain some masterly exercises in compression. . . . Overall, this volume is an exemplary demonstration of effective collaborative scholarship on a religious movement of central importance to the era it covers and of continuing importance to global Christianity. * Hilary M. Carey, The Journal of the Historical Association * This volume admirably presents... many wonderfully suggestive proposals about the nature of nineteenth century dissent. * Evan Kuehn, Reading Religion *
