Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book offers a historical analysis of the origins, beliefs, practices, and teachings of Quakerism, which emerged in England in the mid-17th century as a radical Protestant movement. The author examines the movement's claim to divine revelation, its emphasis on pacifism and simplicity, and its rejection of traditional church rituals and sacraments. Critically engaging with Quaker texts and firsthand accounts, the author highlights their belief in the Inner Light, their unconventional practices such as public preaching by women and the use of plain speech, and their contentious relationships with other religious groups. Exploring the evolution of Quakerism over time, the book sheds light on the movement's resilience and its continued relevance in present-day religious and social contexts.
