About This Book

A series of historical sketches and studies surveys the development and character of Christianity in Cornwall by combining archaeological, liturgical, and documentary evidence to assess origins, chronology, and local practices. The essays critique simplistic comparative methods that assume a single source for similar religious phenomena and emphasize careful attention to dates, places, and material remains. Topics include surviving rites, church architecture, the regional veneration of local holy figures, and folk traditions, while appendices gather supporting documents and corrections to clarify the textual and evidential record.
