Summary:"This book makes a significant contribution to our understanding of the Church of England in the eighteenth century. It explores the nature of the Restoration ecclesiastical regime, the character of the clerical profession, the quality of the clergy's pastoral work, and the question of Church reform through a detailed study of the diocese of the archbishops of Canterbury. In so doing the book covers the political, social, economic, cultural, intellectual, and pastoral functions of the Church and, by adopting a broad chronological span, it allows the problems and difficulties often ascribed to the 'eighteenth-century Church' to be viewed as emerging from the seventeenth century and as continuing well into the nineteenth century."--BOOK JACKET.
