Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This detailed historical text provides a journey through the vast ecclesiastical history of Cornwall and Devon, taking the reader from its pre-Norman origins to the 19th-century revival of the Cornish See. Despite the many changes the Church of England has undergone through the centuries, this book shows how it has remained a dominant force in the religious lives of the people with its far-reaching influence evident in the towns, villages, and churches across these counties. The author has drawn on rare printed books and previously inaccessible manuscripts to prove that Cornwall and Devon are far from being the quiet backwaters many suppose them to be. However, this book concentrates on a time when the church was the heart of the community, from the days of Celtic saints such as Petroc, Piran, and Sidwell through to the Middle Ages, the Reformation and beyond, highlighting the vital roles played by bishops, priests, and ordinary people in shaping both secular and spiritual life.
