Book Description
Excerpt from The Huguenots: Their Settlements, Churches, and Industries in England and Ireland The geographical position of Britain has, from the ear liest times, rendered it a country of refuge. Fronting Eu rope, yet separated from it by a deep sea-moat, the pro scribed of other lands have by turns sought the protection of the island fortress, and made it their-home. To the country of the Britons the Saxons brought their industry, the Northmen their energy, and the Flemings and French their skill and spirit of liberty; and out of the whole has come the English nation.

The Huguenots in England
Author: Bernard Cottret
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521333887
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
This is a much-revised version of Professor Cottret's acclaimed study of the Huguenot communities in England, first published in French by Aubier in 1985. The Huguenots in England presents a detailed, sympathetic assessment of one of the great migrations of early modern Europe, examining the social origins, aspirations and eventual destiny of the refugees, and their responses to their new-found home, a Protestant terre d'exil. Bernard Cottret shows how for the poor weavers, carders and craftsmen who constituted the majority of the exiles the experience of religious persecution was at once personal calamity, disruptive of home and family, and heaven-sent economic opportunity, which many were quick to exploit. The individual testimonies contained in consistory registers contain a wealth of personal narrative, reflection and reaction, enabling Professor Cottret to build a fully rounded picture of the Huguenot experience in early modern England. In an extended afterword Professor Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie considers the Huguenot phenomenon in the wider context of the contrasting British and French attitudes to religious minorities in the early modern period.
