Remembering the Bible Christians - Garry Tregidga - Bog

Bag om Remembering the Bible Christians

Who were the Bible Christians? What is their legacy for Cornish culture and identity? How did Cornish members of the denomination operate at a global level? These are just some of the questions to be explored in this innovative study of the fascinating story of the Bible Christians founded in 1815 by William Bryant, a charismatic preacher originally from Gunwen in rural mid-Cornwall. Remembering the Bible Christians brings together a collection of essays written by an interdisciplinary group of contributors and using a variety of sources including statistical analysis of the 1851 religious census, old newspaper reports, literature, oral history and photography. Remembering the Bible Christians is the second volume in the third series of Cornish Studies. This series seeks to develop the ongoing work of the Institute of Cornish Studies (ICS) in promoting a greater knowledge and understanding of both contemporary and historical Cornwall. It encourages a comparative and interdisciplinary approach which is open to new perspectives, democratic scholarship and community engagement. There is a particular emphasis on thematic volumes and the dissemination of the findings of conferences and projects associated with the ICS.
