Books by Sheridan Gilley

Articles on religion and the religious during the Victorian period, showing its unity and disunity.

John Henry Newman was one of the most fasinating and important figures of the nineteenth century. Charming, sensitive and difficult, he showed his intellectual greatness especially in his response to religious doubt. His life was one of passionate frienships and enmities. This book was acclaimed as the most scholarly and accessible introduction to Newman's life and thought when first published in 1990.
