Description
Black Bartholomew's Day explores the religious, political, and cultural implications of a collision of highly-charged polemic prompted by the mass ejection of Puritan ministers from the Church of England in 1662.
It is the first in-depth study of this heated exchange, focusing on the departing ministers' farewell sermons. Many of these valedictions, delivered by hundreds of dissenting preachers in the weeks before Bartholomew's Day, were illegally printed and widely distributed, provoking a furious response from government officials, magistrates, and bishops.
Black Bartholomew's Day re-interprets the political significance of ostensibly moderate Puritan clergy, arguing that their preaching posed a credible threat to the restored political order.
This book is aimed at readers interested in historicism, religion, nonconformity, print culture, and the political potential of preaching in Restoration England.
