In 1988, the year of the commemoration of the Glorious Revolution, it was fitting that the fourth Anglo-Dutch Church History colloquium should have as its central theme the Church and Revolution and be held at the University of Exeter. In the course of its almost two thousands year's history the Church has been no stranger to reformation, political change and revolution. Set in the world it could not but be affected by the world, nor could it itself, given its nature, fail to exert a variety of influences on social and political as well as on ecclesiastical events. Its life has been profoundly affected and the course of its history directed all of the great revolutions in the Western world, while the Church has itself brought to bear on every period of change its own distinctive and often determinative contribution. Aspects of these twin features blend together in the essays that make up this record of Anglo-Dutch academic exchange and cooperation.
