Puritanism in England (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 14 Ara 2017 - 304 sayfa Excerpt from Puritanism in England Abbey, in the Crypt of Canterbury Cathedral, and in the University Church, Cambridge. In choosing 'puritanism' for the subject of my Lenten Lectures I was influenced by the circumstance that N onconformists generally were engaged in commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Ejectment of their religious ancestors. I trust that nothing has been said which can fairly be regarded as lacking in sympathy or appreciation for the Victims of what I must needs consider the meanest perse cution which Christian History records. Nevertheless, I cannot think that the tradition of their sufferings ought to be allowed to raise the temperature of modern discussions, or to suggest a polemic for modern controversialists.
