Contested Christianity The Political and Social Contexts of Victorian Theology Timothy Larsen - U.S.A. Baylor University Press 2004 - 234tr. paperback, illustration 23 cm

This volume explores the cultural, political, and intellectual forces that helped shape and define nineteenth-century British Christianity. Larsen challenges many of the standard assumptions about Victorian era Christians in their attempts to embody their theological commitments. This study brings freshness and verve to the study of religion and the Victorians, bearing fruit in a range of significant, and often counter-intuitive, findings and connections.
