Description:Minister of the Word, shepherd and teacher--the titles of Dutch pastors exude authority and prestige. In the course of the nineteenth century, however, their social position was slowly undermined by the separation of church and state, the emancipation of Catholics and dissenters, and the rise of all sorts of secular "shepherds" and "teachers." This work of historical sociology analyzes the development of the profession of pastor in the Netherlands Reformed Church, focusing on pastors' changing relationships with the state, the universities, other professions, and their own congregants. It paints a surprising, lively, and often humorous picture of nineteenth-century ecclesiastical and religious life, and of the many areas of Dutch society and culture where pastors made their mark--in particular, the literary world.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
