‘This volume deals with protestant clergy. In innovative ways, a hitherto unknown history of everyday lives emerges. The importance of the clerical household stands clear, and studies of the women, the credit relations and the material culture result in a new picture of a clergy aligned with genteel habits and involved in multifaceted economic networks.’
Gudrun Andersson, Associate Professor in History, Uppsala University
‘These engaging essays offer thought-provoking glimpses of various aspects of clerical social life in England and Sweden. Prominent themes include marriage and the household, environment and economy. The contributors draw on a rich variety of sources, ranging from sermons and exemplary biographies to account books and inventories.’
Ralph Houlbrooke, Emeritus Professor of History, University of Reading
