{"title":"People and piety: protestant devotional identities in early modern England","authors":"Karen E. Smith","doi":"10.1080/0005576x.2021.1976980","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0005576x.2021.1976980","url":null,"abstract":"Wary of engaging with devotional texts, which often focus on personal religious experience, for many years scholars approached the study of history with a clear division between polemics and piety. More recently, especially in the fields of literature and religion, there has been a greater recognition of the value of texts such as spiritual diaries, testimonies and autobiographies. As the editors of People and Piety suggest, this ‘devotional turn’ has offered new insight into a ‘lived religion’ and an opportunity to explore ‘devotional identities’. There are, of course, particular issues that emerge when evaluating material of such a personal nature. Not least, as the editors rightly point out, is the challenge of respecting the ‘otherness’ of the world of the subjects under consideration and the differences of categories of speech to our own ways of speaking. Much time and care must be given to becoming fully immersed in ‘their worlds (including their mental worlds), and learning their language’ (p. xix). The book is divided into two sections – ‘sites’ and ‘types’ – thus allowing for the study of both places and genres of religious devotions and writing. The section on ‘sites’ includes devotional identities in religious communities, the household, theatre and prison. The section devoted to ‘types’ explores autobiographies and religious poetry, as well as death-bed narratives. An example, of the creative approach taken in the chapters is found in Michael Durrant’s essay: “‘HERSCHEPT HET HERT’: Katherine Sutton’s Experiences (1663), the printer’s device and the making of devotion”. As the title suggests, Durrant’s approach is to examine this Calvinistic Baptist work from the perspective of the printed copy. Giving attention to the inclusion of an introductory address by the London Baptist pastor Hanserd Knollys (1599-1691), Durrant also suggests that the layout and ‘physicality of the text’ were deliberately intended to enhance the interiority of the text. While this is the only essay related specifically to Baptists, all of the fine essays in this volume reflect the considerable time given by the contributors to the ‘otherness’ of their subjects and, as a result, offer the reader fascinating insights into the variety of devotional identities in early modern England.","PeriodicalId":39857,"journal":{"name":"The Baptist quarterly","volume":"55 1","pages":"50 - 50"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84835987","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In its first decade, the Quarterly was greatly indebted to the Honorary Secretary of the Baptist Historical Society, W.T. Whitley, and the President of the Society and Principal of Regent's Park College, Wheeler Robinson. This article considers how the Quarterly, from 1922–1931, sought to foster historical investigation and also, as Robinson put it, to ‘express contemporary Baptist aims and interests' on ‘a broader basis'. After ten years of the Quarterly, Robinson argued that it had made ‘a wider appeal by including matters of contemporary as well as of antiquarian interest’. In examining in detail that period, this study proposes that five main areas were of greatest significance: contemporary church life and mission; Baptist history in particular places in Britain; international experience; theological and biblical issues; and the more general historical area.","PeriodicalId":39857,"journal":{"name":"The Baptist quarterly","volume":"76 1","pages":"2 - 18"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80184491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Copson","doi":"10.1080/0005576X.2021.1947604","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/0005576X.2021.1947604","url":null,"abstract":"Focussingon the final threedecades of the century, Dr Smith traces thedistinguishing features of the varieties of Socinian, Arian (High and Low), and Unitarian thought, and where they agreed and differed, with a nod to the Latitudinarians in the Established Church. One stated aim is to redress the balance of previous over-dependence on the Unitarian Joseph Priestley and the Arian Richard Price as representative thinkers. Here is a much broader range of correspondents that includes pulpit and pew and author, male and female where possible. Appendices table subscribers to publications and a biographical register illustrates the range of people involved. Rational dissenters were rooted in scripture (shades of the earlier Salters Hall debates) but did not draw the same conclusions as the Orthodox Dissenters, most pointedly on Trinitarian formulations. Their views on monarchy, slavery, liberty and the constitution were shaped by a reading of scripture. First and foremost, they were not political animals with religious ideas rather their theologywas the sourceof their political,moral andsocial views. However, when the attacks in print came, it was at theological radicals that orthodox writers like Andrew Fuller took aim while other commentators questioned political loyalty in the face of political upheavals in France, culminating in Priestley’s Meeting House in Birmingham being torched. Dr Smith does not see rational denominations or traditions as such but rather a culture of individuals and churches with shared views – ministers and lay folk. The number and strength of Arians and Socinians were eclipsed as the Unitarians became better organised, although no proposal is offered beyond this for why Arian views waned whilst Unitarian views waxed. Nor is much discussion given to the story of rational dissent among the General Baptists. An aspect that could have been explored in greater focus is how ecclesiology, organisation and even family loyalty shaped the story of rational dissent. Also, the influence of the academies and their tutors. And one always speculates how much the person in the pew understood the doctrinal niceties that differentiated the various Rational and Orthodox streams. By the turn of the century, Unitarians were emerging as an organised denomination. Some attempts were made to engage with the new working classes, but the subscribing and (presumably) reading of published works suggests a literate and better off audience. This is a well-researched and careful study of a significant period in the history of rational and orthodox Dissent. There is a helpful bibliography. It is noted with sadness that this volume has appeared posthumously.","PeriodicalId":39857,"journal":{"name":"The Baptist quarterly","volume":"82 1","pages":"49 - 49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78202735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
