Klappentext
Biografische Anmerkung

Worship even more than theology may be the key to a true understanding of the Church's history, for through it people express their interpretation of theology and religion. In this third volume (chronologically) of a planned several-volume series, Professor Davies traces liturgy's relationship to music, literature, and architecture; studies the effects of philosophical, social, and theological movements (18th century Rationalism, the Oxford Movement, the Evangelical Revival); and describes the techniques of such popular preachers and teachers as Whitefield and Wesley. There are chapters on Anglican, Congregational, Baptist, Presbyterian, Quaker, and Unitarian worship, forming a rich portrait of the varieties of Christian worship in England.
Originally published in 1961.
The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.



The late Horton Davies was a professor at Princeton University, which exchanged courses with Princeton Theological Seminary.

He founded the department of religion at Rhodes University in Grahamstown, South Africa, before returning to teach at Oxford and then at Princeton. He was the author of Worship and Theology in England, Varieties of English Preaching 1900-1960, Like Angels from a Cloud, and The English Metaphysical Preachers, 1588-1645.
