Description
Katherine Chidley was a prominent figure in 17th-century England, known for her outspoken views on religion and politics. Her writings from this period offer valuable insights into the complex debates surrounding church and state during the English civil wars. Chidley's works, published between 1641 and 1645, challenged the prevailing attitudes of his time, advocating for a separation of church and state. These writings are now reprinted in this volume, accompanied by an excellent introduction to Chidley's life and work. This collection provides a unique opportunity to engage with the ideas and arguments of a lesser-known but significant figure from English history.
