This wide-ranging historical survey provides an indespensable resource for those interested in exploring, teaching, or studying English spirituality. This is the second of two stand-alone volumes that trace the history from Roman times until the year 2000. Contained in both are the main Christian traditions and a vast range of writers and spiritual themes, from Anglo-Saxon poems to the late modern feminist spirituality. These two volumes present the astonishing richness and variety of responses made by English Christians to the call of the divine during the past thousand years.
