Beyond Religious Discourse
$39.99Add to cartDrawing extensively on primary sources, this pioneer work in modern religious history
explores the training of preachers, the construction of sermons and how Irish
evangelicalism and the wider movement in Great Britain and the United States shaped the
preaching event. Evangelical preaching and politics, sectarianism, denominations, education, class, social reform, gender and revival are examined to advance the argument that evangelical sermons and preaching went significantly beyond religious discourse. The result is a book for those with interests in Irish history, culture and belief, popular religion and society, evangelicalism, preaching and communication.
