Description - Going to Church in Medieval England by Nicholas Orme
An engaging, richly illustrated account of parish churches and churchgoers in England, from the Anglo-Saxons to the mid-sixteenth century
Parish churches were at the heart of English religious and social life in the Middle Ages. In this comprehensive book, Nicholas Orme shows how they came into existence, how they were staffed, and how their buildings were used. He investigates who went to church, or did not, and what they experienced in the daily and weekly services, the seasons of the year, and the great events of their lives. Much of this, the author reveals, survived the Reformation in the sixteenth century.
