In this classic work of social history, Christopher Hill reveals Puritanism as a living faith, one responding to social as well as religious needs. It was a set of beliefs that answered the hopes and fears of yeomen and gentlemen, as well as merchants and artisans, in a time of tribulation and extraordinary turbulence. Over this period, Puritanism was interwoven into daily life. Here Hill looks at how rituals and practices such as oath-taking, the Sabbath, bawdy courts, and poor relief offered a way to bring order to social upheaval. He even offers an explanation for the emergence of the seemingly paradoxical figure of the age—the Puritan revolutionary.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43412353253631,"sku":"9781786636218","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781786636218_s600x595.jpg?v=1782152400","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781786636218","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
