It addresses the crisis in the secularization thesis by foregrounding a nineteenth-century development called 'Secularism' – the particular movement and creed founded by George Jacob Holyoake from 1851 to 1852. Nineteenth-Century British Secularism rethinks and reevaluates the significance of Holyoake's Secularism, regarding it as a historic moment of modernity and granting it centrality as both a herald and exemplar for a new understanding of modern secularity. In addition to Secularism proper, the book treats several other moments of secular emergence in the nineteenth century, including Thomas Carlyle's 'natural supernaturalism', Richard Carlile's anti-theist science advocacy, Charles Lyell's uniformity principle in geology, Francis Newman's naturalized religion or 'primitive Christianity', and George Eliot's secularism and post-secularism.Histories of the Sacred and Secular, 1700–2000Great Britain—HistoryPhilosophyHistoryHistory, ModernSocial historySecularismHistory of Britain and Irelandhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717020History of Philosophyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E15000History of Sciencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/731000Modern Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/713000Social Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/724000Secularismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A8040Great BritainfastEnglandgndVerenigd Koninkrijk van Groot-Brittannië en Noord-IerlandgttHistory.fastGreat Britain—History.Philosophy.History.History, Modern.Social history.Secularism.History of Britain and Ireland.History of Philosophy.History of Science.Modern History.Social History.Secularism.211.6094109034Rectenwald Michaelauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut903260BOOK9910254777303321Nineteenth-Century British Secularism2019247UNINA
