Britain and the Papacy in the Age of Revolution, 1846-1851
Author:
Saho Matsumoto-Best
Published:
2003
Medium: Book Publisher: Boydell & Brewer Ltd
From the time of the Reformation Anglo-Vatican relations have typically been seen as a long history of unending antagonism and mutual suspicion, but this has not always been the case. This book sheds light on one of the most curious episodes in early Victorian history when, around the time of the 1848 revolutions in Europe, a rapprochement almost developed between Britain and the papacy, and British politicians and writers referred to the new head of the Catholic Church, Pius IX, as 'the good pope'. hardback

Britain, Hanover and the Protestant Interest, 1688-1756
Author:
Andrew C. Thompson
Published:
2006
Medium: Book Publisher: Boydell & Brewer Ltd
Religious ideas and power-politics were strongly connected in the early eighteenth century: William III, George I and George II all took their role as defenders of the protestant faith extremely seriously, and confessional thinking was of major significance to court whiggery. This book considers the importance of this connection. hardback

Beginning with an introduction setting the medieval British experience into its European context, the book continues with three chapters outlining the history of the Jews' presence and a discussion of where they settled. hardback
