Excerpt from Quakerism, Past and Present: An Inquiry Into the Causes of Its Decline in Great Britain and Ireland
It was an age of deep earnestness. Frivolous and luxurious men had for a while retreated to make way for impassioned and high wrought spirits; for the interpreters at once of the ancient revela tions, and of the present judgments of Heaven; for the monitors of an ungodly world, and for the comforters of those who bent beneath the weight of national and domestic calamities. -sm james stephen.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history and beliefs of the Society of Friends, commonly known as Quakers, from their founding in the mid-17th century to the present day. The author traces the origins of Quakerism within the tumultuous religious and social landscape of England during that period, examining how the group's distinctive doctrines and practices, such as the rejection of a formal priesthood and the emphasis on silent worship, emerged in response to the prevailing religious and political climate. The book analyzes the ways in which these early Quaker beliefs have shaped the Society's subsequent development and decline, examining factors such as the influence of rationalist thought and the impact of industrialization and urbanization on Quaker communities. Through a combination of historical research and analysis of Quaker writings, the author sheds light on the complex interplay between the group's core beliefs, its organizational structure, and its social and cultural context, offering valuable insights into the evolution of religious movements and the challenges faced by faith communities in adapting to changing circumstances. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
