The English Deists cover

Interprets the works of an important group of writers known as 'the English deists'. This title argues that this interpretation reads Romantic conceptions of religious identity into a period in which it was lacking. It contextualizes these writers within the early Enlightenment, which was multivocal, plural and in search of self definition.

'for readers who appreciate meticulous intellectual histories animated by complex characters adopting various personae as circumstances demand, Mr. Hudson's book will be a pleasure to read' The Scriblerian
