First Published in 1987. This volume has its remote origins in the 'Religion and Society' group - one of the feeders for 'History Workshop' - which began meeting at Nuffield College Oxford in 1965. The Group, which contained a number of people who were to become 'History Workshop' editors and contributors, began from a radical dissatisfaction at the exclusion of religion, as a central subject for enquiry, from the Oxford history course. The Workshop from which this volume is drawn covered three days and involved a vast range of papers, only a fraction of which are included here.
