Literature, Religion, and the Evolution of Culture
About this Episode
This academic text explores the interplay of literature, religion, and cultural evolution in Great Britain between 1660 and 1780. It examines how debates over church and state authority, particularly regarding divine right monarchy versus parliamentary power, shaped the era's discourse. The sources analyze the consequences of religious persecution, exemplified by the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes and its impact on British views of tolerance, contrasting Augustinian compulsion with emerging calls for persuasion. Furthermore, the text investigates the rise of Methodism and its theological challenges to established Anglican doctrines, alongside an exploration of the Gordon Riots as a significant moment of social and political upheaval. Ultimately, the material reveals a society grappling with profound changes, from theological reinterpretations to the evolving concept of religious freedom and civil rights.
