Sommario/riassunto

'Settling the Peace of the Church' is a collection of nine essays on the context and consequences of the Act of Uniformity of 1662 and the subsequent 'Great Ejection', in which around two thousand ministers, teachers and university fellows gave up their positions rather than submit to the conditions of the Act.
