Promotional info/Publisher\'s summary - \"The origin of the modern perception of religion can be traced to the Enlightenment. This book shows how the concepts of \"religion\" and \"the religions\" arose from controversies in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century England. The birth of \"the religions,\" conceived of as sets of beliefs and practices, created a new science of religion in which the various \"religions\" could be studied and impartially compared. Harrison gives a detailed historical picture of the emergence of this concept and how it led to the discipline of comparative religion.\"

Review:
\"Professor Harrison has produced a meticulously documented, systematically organized, and challenging monograph. His use of the printed literature and sources of the period is exemplary. Although a demanding exercise in intellectual history, this book is profoundly significant for scholars concerned with English religious thought.\" --Albion
