In his book "Holy Living and Holy Dying" written immediately after the execution of Charles I, Jeremy Taylor put forward proposals on living as an Anglican without the Church of England, which was then under threat. His book was written at a time when ancient religious beliefs were under question by the enlightened, and witches were being burned by the superstitious. His common sense, and the realism which insists on placing moral argument in the framework of eternity, demonstrates how to live happily in the presence of God, without fear of death. This introduction to Jeremy Taylor's writings and beliefs aims to show that his themes are still relevant to Anglicans today, as they face hostility and change in their Church. Quantity Available: 1.
