Books by Isabel Rivers

The period 1660-1780 saw major changes in the relationship between religion and ethics in English thought. In this first part of an important two-volume study, Isabel Rivers examines the rise of Anglican moral religion and the reactions against it expressed in nonconformity, dissent and Methodism.

A new introduction and a fully updated bibliography make the second edition of this established text an indispensable resource for students and teachers of English poetry.
