维多利亚晚期英国宗教的世俗化

The Religious Secularization in Late Victorian Britain

在维多利亚晚期,英国宗教一方面呈现出“信仰危机”,经常去教堂做礼拜的信徒日渐减少,教堂冷清;另一方面,宗教教派十分活跃,广泛地参与现世的社会活动。这些现象的出现源于英国宗教的历史传统及其社会的深刻变革。

There were belief crises in late Victorian Britain. On the one hand, the churchgoing population reduced gradually and churches became vacant; on the other hand, religious sects devoted themselves to the secular affairs. These phenomena originated from the religious traditions and deep social changes in the British society.
