Beskrivning
On Black Bartholomew’s Day—August 24, 1662—nearly two thousand ministers denied the authority of the Church of England and were subsequently removed from their posts. Mary Franklin was the wife of Presbyterian minister Robert Franklin, one of the dissenting ministers ejected from their pulpits and their livings on that day. She recorded the experience of her persecution in the unused pages of her husband’s sermon notebook. In 1782—some hundred years after the composition of her grandmother’s narrative— Mary’s granddaughter, Hannah Burton, took up this same notebook to chronicle her experience as an impoverished widow, barely surviving the economic revolutions of eighteenth-century London.            Collected for the first time, this volume of the Franklin Family Papers offers rare insight into the personal lives of three generations of dissenting women.

Recensioner i media

"Camden has created a magnificent toolkit for further investigations as well as a stellar example to whet the appetites of the more casual reader of life writing across generations, from grandmother to granddaughter, from circa 1688–9 to nearly a century later. . . .Camden delivers an exciting new case study for teaching and research alike. . . . This volume shines new light on women’s leadership roles in Dissenting communities with a first-person account of a wife of an ejected minister."
