• Sommario/riassunto: This book completes Lionel Adey's study of English hymnody which began with Hymns and the Christian 'Myth' (1986). Looking at a wide range of adult and school hymnals used between 1700 and 1939, Adey investigates the social context in which the hymns were sung and their influence on the singers. Class and Idol in the English Hymn is pertinent not only to academics in fields of literature, religion, history, and psychology, but also to hymn lovers, hymn writers, and clergy.
