A history of
religious
nonconformity
in
Hertfordshire
Tuesdays
1, 8, 15 &
22 June 2010
Jonathan Rodell is an enthusiastic
teacher with
a great
depth of
knowledge in
his field at
both local
and national
level. In
this course
he will
share his
enthusiasm
for the
history of
nonconformity,
looking at
Lollardy,
the first
Protestants
and
Separatists;
the Civil
Wars and
their
aftermath,
early
Independents,
Baptists and
Quakers, the
Great
Ejectment
and English
Presbyterianism;
the
Evangelical
Revival and
the growth
of
Methodism,
Unitarianism
and the
revival of
older
Dissent; and
finally the
more recent
history of
the Free
Churches,
their
political
impact and
causes of
numerical
decline. In
each session
the national
developments
will be
explored
through
their
expression
in
Hertfordshire,
linking in
to the local
story behind
many of
today’s
churches and
chapels.
