Book Overview

The Gallican Church And The Revolution is a historical book written by W. Henley Jervis and published in 1882. The book explores the impact of the French Revolution on the Gallican Church, which was the Roman Catholic Church in France before the revolution. Jervis examines the changes that occurred in the church during the revolution, including the suppression of religious orders, the confiscation of church property, and the establishment of a state-controlled church. He also discusses the role of the Gallican Church in the revolution, including its support for the monarchy and its opposition to the revolutionary government. Jervis draws on a variety of sources, including official documents, contemporary accounts, and personal correspondence, to provide a detailed and comprehensive analysis of the Gallican Church during this turbulent period in French history. The book is an important contribution to the study of the French Revolution and the history of the Catholic Church in France.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
