Andrews, is the first full-length study of Stevens’ life and thought. Historiographically revisionist and contextualised within a neglected history of lay High Church activism, Andrews presents Stevens as an influential High Church layman who brought to Anglicanism not only his piety and theological learning, but his wealth and business acumen. With extensive social links to numerous High Church figures in late Georgian Britain, Stevens’ lay activism is shown to be central to the achievements and effectiveness of the wider High Church movement during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries.Brill's series in church history.Religious history and culture series ;Volume 60.LaityChurch of EnglandHistory18th centuryHigh Church movementEnglandHistory18th centuryEnglandChurch history18th centuryLaityChurch of EnglandHistoryHigh Church movementHistory283.092Andrews Robert M(Honorary Research Associate),1594641MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817740603321Lay activism and the high church movement of the late eighteenth century3915225UNINA
