This compelling collection examines the 'lived devotion' of men and women in England's Long Reformation. Through cutting-edge research, fourteen chapters explore how English piety was at once segregational and social, fixed in principle yet fluid in practice, and where authors worked out their faith in painstaking and sometimes painful ways.
