Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the evolution of the idea of 'charity', from the 14th century to the present, to demonstrate its close ties to the development of ideas about community and the state. The author examines how the growth of 'community' came to be defined by how individuals perceived their duty of charity to others, and how that charity extended to the wider public, and to the growing power of the state. The author traces this historical development through a study of sermons, popular literature, and other non-fiction texts. This book will be of interest to historians, sociologists, charity professionals, and anyone interested in the history of the concept of charity.
