Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fierce opposition to Catholicism and the Stuart dynasty in 18th century England. The author contrasts the severity of anti-Catholic sentiment and Jacobite sympathies with the relative moderation of religious and political views in present society. It delves into the historical context of the Jacobite rebellions, tracing their origins to the political machinations of the deposed James II and his Catholic leanings. The book analyzes how the perception of Catholicism and the Stuart dynasty as existential threats to the English nation fueled mass support for the Hanoverian succession and the Protestant establishment. Through a detailed examination of pamphlets, sermons, and political speeches, the author reveals the depth of anti-Catholic and anti-Jacobite sentiment and its pervasive influence on English society. The book concludes by emphasizing the lasting impact of these sentiments on English political and religious discourse and their relevance to understanding contemporary debates on immigration and religious tolerance.
