Book Description
As a religious and social phenomenon Methodism engages with a number of disciplines including history, sociology, gender studies and theology. Methodist energy and vitality have intrigued, and continue to fascinate scholars. This Companion brings together a team of respected international scholars writing on key themes in World Methodism to produce an authoritative and state-of-the-art review of current scholarship, mapping the territory for future research. Leading scholars examine a range of themes including: the origins and genesis of Methodism; the role and significance of John Wesley; Methodism’s emergence within the international and transatlantic evangelical revival of the Eighteenth-Century; the evolution and growth of Methodism as a separate denomination in Britain; its expansion and influence in the early years of the United States of America; Methodists’ roles in a range of philanthropic and social movements including the abolition of slavery, education and temperance; the character of Methodism as both conservative and radical; its growth in other cultures and societies; the role of women as leaders in Methodism, both acknowledged and resisted; the worldwide spread of Methodism and its enculturation in America, Asia and Africa; the development of distinctive Methodist theologies in the last three centuries; its role as a progenitor of the Holiness and Pentecostal movements, and the engagement of Methodists with other denominations and faiths across the world. This major companion presents an invaluable resource for scholars worldwide; particularly those in the UK, North America, Asia and Latin America.

Book Description
Excerpt from Eminent Methodist Women In compiling the lives of holy women that appear in the following pages, the writer has found material as abundant in some cases as deficient in others. So much attention and research have been devoted to the elucidating of almost every point relating to the noble Susanna Wesley, that the lack of any contemporary record is hardly felt; Dr. Adam Clarke in his Wesley Family, the Rev. John Kirk in his Mother of the Wesley's, and Mrs. Eliza Clarke in her exhaustive little volume contributed to the "Eminent Women Series," having supplied almost all that can now be hoped in illustration of Mrs. Wesley's life and character. The well-known writings of Mrs. Fletcher and Mrs. Rogers are also sufficiently full of incident and of autobiographic information.
