Class and Religion in the Late Victorian City EPUB
by Hugh McLeod
Part of the Routledge Library Editions: The Victorian World series
EPUB
Description
First published in 1974, this book describes the religion of the East End, the West End, and the suburbs of London, where each section of society - as well as a variety of immigrant groups - has its own quarters, its own institutions, its distinctive codes of behaviour. While the main focus is on ideas, or unconscious assumptions, rather than institutions, two chapters examine the part played by the churches in the life of Bethnal Green, a very poor district, and of Lewisham, a prosperous suburb, and a third provides a picture of the church-going habits of each part of the city.
The years 1880-1914 mark one of the most important transitions in English religious history. The latter part of the book examines the causes and consequences of these changes. This book will be of interest to students of history, and particularly those interested in issues of religion and class.
