Calvin Lane explores the intersection between reform movements and everyday Christian practice from c.1000 to c.1800. Providing colorful details, Lane lowers the artificial boundaries between "the Middle Ages" and "the Reformation" to show a series of reform programs each of which hoped to revive an imagined primitive Golden Age.
Notions of religious conformity in England were redefined during the mid-seventeenth century; for many it was as though the previous century's reformation was being reversed. Lane considers how a select group of churchmen - the Laudians - reshaped the meaning of church conformity during a period of religious and political turmoil.
