Religious Space in Reformation England

'One of the neglected mysteries of the English Reformation is how sacred spaces were adapted, repurposed and reinvented. This admirable book takes us into churches and cemeteries in particular places, exploring the contested nature of their use by people with competing religious values. It is a welcome study!' Norm Jones, Utah State University 'In a spatial approach to religious change, Guinn-Chipman examines forms of reluctant adaptation and the memorialization of traditional practice. Focusing on conservatives and moderates in their local settings, this original study sheds new light on the fragmentation of the cultural landscape and the construction of the past in early modern England.' Beat Kumin, University of Warwick
