Samenvatting
The pastor in print explores the phenomenon of early modern pastors choosing to become print authors. Addressing ways print could enhance, limit, or change pastoral ministry, the book demonstrates how ministers tailored their publications’ genre, content, and timing as they sought to achieve religious goals among a range of audiences. In the process, it discusses multiple aspects of post-Reformation English religion, including censorship, private religious devotion, polemic, witchcraft, and religious education.
The book centres on an extended case study of Richard Bernard, a prolific pastor-author whose career provides a coherent framework through which to analyse key features of early modern clerical publishing. It also addresses a number of other English pastors who pursued authorship as an intentional part of their religious vocation, notably George Gifford, Thomas Wilson, and Samuel Hieron. In contrast to studies focusing upon specific genres or audiences, this study offers a broader paradigm for understanding pastoral authorship, addressing different ways that pursuit of publication could be integrated, over the course of a career, with one’s parish work and overarching religious goals.
Providing a remarkably comprehensive account of pastoral publishing, The pastor in print offers a new lens through which to view the intersection of print technology and clerical work in this pivotal period, which in turn points us toward a more complete understanding of post-Reformation English religion.
The pastor in print explores the phenomenon of early modern pastors who chose to become print authors, addressing ways authorship could enhance, limit or change clerical ministry and ways pastor-authors conceived of their work in parish and print. It identifies strategies through which pastor-authors established authorial identities, targeted different sorts of audiences and strategically selected genre and content as intentional parts of their clerical vocation. The first study to provide a book-length analysis of the phenomenon of early modern pastors writing for print, it uses a case study of prolific pastor-author Richard Bernard to offer a new lens through which to view religious change in this pivotal period. By bringing together questions of print, genre, religio-politics and theology, the book will interest scholars and postgraduate students in history, literature and theological studies, and its readability will appeal to undergraduates and non-specialists.
