SUMMARY:Professor Martyn Percy on 'The crisis of colonial Anglicanism: empire\, slavery and revolt in the Church of England'
DESCRIPTION:Professor Martyn Percy will present his new book\, The crisis of colonial Anglicanism: empire\, slavery and revolt in the Church of England\, which offers a bold and unsettling truth: the British Empire and Great Britain are primarily English constructions\, and the Church of England benefited from English enterprise and exploitation\, serving as the spiritual arm of the imperial project. English Anglicanism has cast itself as the lead character in its own ‘serious fiction’—the main religious player in a drama of Church and Empire. Yet\, in collusion with colonialism\, it is now trapped by historical amnesia. The book examines the English interests concealed in appeals to Britishness\, showing how slavery\, exploitation\, classism and racism upheld elitist and hierarchical worldviews that bolstered both Empire and Church. By viewing the rest of the world as lesser\, both institutions have declined in global standing\, now reduced to minor national players on the world stage. Religious\, social and political imperialism thrived on deprecating others\, but those once marginalised have fought for equality and independence.
