Exact facsimile of the original edition and reproduced with Optical Recognition. Also includes the 1937 updated introduction by Tawney. In one of the truly great classics of twentieth-century political economy, R. H. Tawney addresses the question of how religion has affected social and economic practices. He does this by a relentless tracking of the influence of religious thought on capitalist economy and ideology since the Middle Ages. In so doing he sheds light on why Christianity continues to exert a unique role in the marketplace. In tough, muscular, richly varied prose, he tells an absorbing and meaningful story. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTawney's work is a direct response to Weber's famous treatise on the Protestant Ethic. In \u003cem\u003eReligion and the Rise of Capitalism\u003c\/em\u003e Tawney accepts Weber's main premise but argues that political and social pressures and the spirit of individualism with its ethic of self-help and frugality were more significant factors in the development of capitalism than was Calvinist theology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContents: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe medieval background.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe continental reformers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Church of England.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Puritan movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.65 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 14, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52312593793298,"sku":"9781684227693","price":22.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/YWZ1UC9xb2QzckJ2UzF6SUV6RmhTZz09.webp?v=1780077264","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/religion-and-the-rise-of-capitalism-paperback-2","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
