Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a sweeping appraisal of the complex relationship between the State and religion in the 19th century. Drawing upon a vast array of historical sources, the author provides a detailed account of how the dominance of the State over society was slowly eroded by the rise of new social and intellectual forces, including liberalism, secularism, and nationalism. The author also explores the ways in which these forces shaped the development of modern religious thought and practice, leading to a more inward-looking, privatized form of religiosity. Ultimately, the book argues that the 19th century was a period of profound transformation in the relationship between the State and religion, one that continues to shape our understanding of these institutions today.
