Decide This Doubt for Me
This paper proposes that William Cowper's Olney Hymns (1779) instantiate a curious form of modern belief. Cowper's hymns are riddled with personal confessions of doubt, unbelief, and a sense of exile from the broader Christian church. At the same time, the public nature of his hymns-an emergent genre in eighteenth-century England-placed such private misgivings in a communal context. As congregations collectively sang their individual doubts, thos…
Godless Fictions in the Eighteenth Century
Although there were no self-avowed British atheists before the 1780s, authors including Jonathan Swift, Alexander Pope, Sarah Fielding, Phebe Gibbes, and William Cowper worried extensively about atheism's dystopian possibilities, and routinely represented atheists as being beyond the pale of human sympathy. Challenging traditional formulations of secularization that equate modernity with unbelief, Reeves reveals how reactions against atheism rath…

The authors argue that promoting gender equality without simultaneously promoting changes in capitalist workplace organization and capitalist cultural values systems will likely result in the unintended consequence of less meaningful leisure for mature women of the future. The current problem of declining leisure for both men and women, but especially women, is described, analyzed, and projected to the future. Certain assumptions are made about s…

Questionnaires were administered to 151 men and women. The findings indicated that (1) women were more likely than men to experience the label of being unattractive, (2) the label was differentially applied by various reference groups, and (3) women responde…

Bishop Gore and the Anglican Modernists
The Cambridge Conference has created a new crisis in the Church of England. Bishop Gore has publicly complained that a large and important and learned body of men, many of them officials in that Church, hold views which are fundamentally subversive of the whole fabric of Christian belief. To those of the "Catholic party" who ask him what is to be done in this emergency, he confesses he has no short and easy answer to give, but he makes a few sugg…
