Qty
Hardback 0199216509
Published Price £28.00 Our Price £9.99
What did ordinary people believe in post-Reformation England, and what did they do about it? This book looks at religious belief and practice through the eyes of five sorts of people: godly Protestant ministers, zealous Protestant laypeople, the ignorant, those who complained about the burdens of religion, and the Catholics. Haigh's lively account of popular religion under Elizabeth I and the early Stuarts deals with the results of the Reformation, reactions to official policy, and the background to the Civil Wars.

This accessible selection of apocryphal texts, with introductions, includes stories of Jesus' birth in a cave, his childhood escapades, his secret sayings and his descent to the underworld, St Paul baptizing a lion and St Peter being crucified upside down.

Apostates and Defectors in Antiquity Religion
Stephen G Wilson
Fortress 2004 158 pages
Qty
Hardback 0800636759
Published Price £17.99 Our Price £7.99
The decision to leave one faith community for another can create strife, pain and social dislocation, so ancient apostasy is generally presented in an unsympathetic light. Focusing on Jewish and Christian sources, but also using evidence from a range of Greco-Roman pagan authors, Wilson investigates more closely and even-handedly what motivated defectors in the ancient world, how they went about their defections and how the people who opposed them defined and interpreted their actions.
