The religion of Oliver Cromwell: with special reference to his conception of providence

Abstract

Countless biographies and other works have treated Oliver Cromwell as a political figure. Some few have dealt sketchily with his personal religious life as seen in his private letters and the testimony of his contemporaries. Few have considered his impact on his times in the light of his religious experience.This study is an attempt to trace the development of Cromwellls central religious convictions, using especially his conception of Providence as a key to an understanding of his life and work
