English Catholicism, 1680-1830 cover

Offers a collection of English-language Catholic literature covering the long eighteenth century. This book focuses on the periods of martyrdom and violent persecution from the end of the sixteenth to the end of the seventeenth centuries and, latterly, on the so-called 'Second Spring' of English Catholicism.

'Pickering and Chatto are to be commended for publishing such a work which could help lead to a rethinking about the nature and importance of the Catholic community in the eighteenth century; it can be highly recommended for any serious library of religious thought and history.' The Downside Review 'a major publishing event' English Historical Review 'The significance of having such clean and luxuriously bound copies of these texts is great...with its lucid general introduction, its bibliographical essay, useful notes, and carefully devised index, this is a set libraries cannot afford not to buy.' 1650-1850: Ideas, Aesthetics, and Inquiries in the Early Modern Era
