IntToduction
Until about the middle or the nineteenth century 'secularisatioll' reil'rred to the process by which church lands were transf'erred to lay ownership (as happened, f(lr lIlstance, during the Rdi>rlnation or the French Revolution), or whereby priests, monks or nuns abandoned their orders. But then the term began to be llsed in a wider sense. The first to do so secms to havc been the historian W. E. II. Lecky who, in I HG[i, rekrrcd to a 'general secularisation or the European intellect' and specifically to a 'secularisation or politics'.! By this he mcalll. that there had been a long-term tendency lill' reason of state to replace religious considerations in relations between states and decisiolls to go to war. Soon other authors were claiming to detect secularisation in such areas as economics or art. But the hIm or secularisation seems to have been already current hclilre it was given a name. The French pioneer or SOCiology Auguste Comte argued in his highly influential COllI'S de jJ/ii/osojJ/i11' j)()sllirl(? (I H:Hl-42) t hat knowledge passed through three phases, the theological, the mctaphysical and t he posit ivc or scicnt ilic. Now, with the dawning or the scicntific age, religIOn in its traditional fimns was doomed, and Comtc devised a Religioll of Hlimanity, which would perfilrm f(ll' the modern world those necessary functions 0(' providing meaning, ritual and a basis lilr morality, which had oncc been the province or the chllrches.~ The search f(JI' a Religion or I-Iulllanity, which had already hegun during the French Revolution, has remained a central thellle or ninetccnti1- and twenticth-centllry history - though thc search is still no nearer to its goal than it was in COllltC's day.:1 Meanwhile, COlllte's fj'amework or long-term historical change, according to which religion hegins as an all-powerlid l(llTe and then gradllally

usually wanted to t.race in much great.er detail t he 'how', as well as the 'what' and the 'why', of'historical change, This concern has be('n rcinf()}n~c1 by modern developments in the writing of' hist.ory, A major thcmc in historical scholarship since the I ~)(jOs has bcen thc ambition to write a 'history f'rom below' One aspect. or this has been the discovery of' 'popular' religion, and the result.ing attempt to write a religious history of' the 'ordinary person', making no assumptions about the rclevance to this history of' the writings of' theologians or scientists, the pronouncements of'an:hbishops or the decrces or monarchs and p,lrliaments, III There arc many possible ways of' 'telling the story' of'religion in Wcstern Europe during the nineteenth and twcntieth ccnuries, All are to somc degret' arbit rary, Each involves a vast process or simpfification, ill ordcr to allow some killd of' overall sense to be made of' evcnts oj' haf'flillg complexit)" Clearly the dominant version oj'the story at present is that which sces the ccnt.ral theme as sccularisation, II (:rucially important herc has been t.hl' ElCt that since the 1~)()()s the churches ill most parts of' Western Europe have suf'kred a severe decline, I~ Anyone writing in Western Europe durll1g the last thirty years or so on Illodel'll religious history has inevitably heen ke(,nly aW;lr(' or this EICI, and the temptation has heen strong to stlldy the nineteenth century Illainly in order to trace the origins or this declinc, While Illany historians have agreed in idcntif)'ing senilarisation as thc ccntral thellle or '-'Vcsterll Ellrope's l110dern religiolls history, they have disagreed radically abollt the extent, callses and timing or this sCClilarisation, 'Ii) begill with timing: most historians have identified a crucial period in which the trend towards seclliarisation became unquestiollably dominant, even ir they accept that other periods llIay also have played a part. In (;erlllany and France, thollgh llIuch less f'requently in England, llIany historians have argued that the tllrning point was the eighteenth-century Enlightenment. and that III spitc of' SOlllC tempor;lr)' intcrrllpt ions in the intervening period, there has becn a proccss or secularisation continllally at work f'rom the eighteenth ccntnr), to the present day,;\ second approach, more favollred by British historians, has been to fiJells Oil the Indllstrial Revoilltion and on the massive shin of' pOPlllation fi'oll1 villages to towns and cities f'rom about 1HOO onwards, ;\ third approach, EIVOIIlTd especially by historians of' ideas and or literatllre, has hecll to highlight variolls developments ill science, philosophy and >

the study of'religion around the middle of the ninetceenth ccntury, with Darwin IIsllally being identified as the central figure and the pllblication ill I Wi9 of' On the OUP:III o/SjJl'{'il's as the central event.

Stephen Yeo, in all inl1ucntial study of' the biscllit-manu[ilc!urillg town or Reading, was OIlC or several Brit.ish historians who have argued that religion and thc churches were central to the lill- or British industrial towns in the period !i'om about the ll'lriOs to the 1l'll'lOs. but that major changes took place bet ween about 1l'l~)O and 1914. These included the decline or paternalism. leading to increasingly impersonal relations between employers and workers, and rrequently to Illore severe class conflict; the increasing role or the state and a corresponding decline in the significance or decisions lllade at thc local level; and a declinc in the importance or voluntary organisations. At the same time. the development or the entertainlllent illdustry took up an IncreaslIlg proportion or people's rrec t imc, orten su pplant i ng older leisure ElCilities provided by the church. and sport became a mattn or passionate concern, especially to young men, and onen t he emotional centre or their lives. I!) Both or these versions agree that the nineteenth century was a crucial phase or secularisation, even if' they disagrec as to why. The account in terms or 'Postl11oe!ern it y' view, however. suggests that the major theme or the nineteenth century and the lirst hall' of the twentieth is the continuing centrality or religion and the churches. and that 'real' secularisation has happened only since ahout 1!lG(l.:!1J This has been proposed in respect or Britain by Callum Bmwn, but many or his points could be applied to other West European countries.

religious beliefs and practices to the next generation. According to this versioll. the social positioll or the churches only began to crumble fl'om the later I ~)!)Os onwards, with the development oj' a rebellious and hedonistic youth culture. strongly influenced by popular music. and with a revolution in women's self~unclerstand ing, as a result or which older models orkmininity rapidly retreated in the bee or new ideals oj' iudividual "'clf~rul(iiment. Somewhat similar argulllcnts have been advanced by Pcter van Rooden who. in a surveyor long-terlll religious change in The Netherlands, concludes t hat only f1'()Jn t he I !)(i()s Gin one speak of a general trend towards sccularisation. lip to that tjme, any sign or apparent sccularisation in ont' area fc)r instance, the growth in the numbers of those without religious arliliation - had to be counterbalanced by contrary signs in other areas - fClI' instance. the continued dOlllination of Dutch politics by confl'sslonal panics and the tendency towards Illort' tightly knit conft~ssional subcultures. During the period between thc later cighteenth century and the middle of the twcntieth. there were several major changes in patterns or individual religious belier and practice, in the public role or the churches. and in their teachings. but none or thesc can usefully he defined or explained in terms or a trend towards secularisation. 2 ! While propollents or these three thcories differ radically as to whcn, how and why it happened. they arc all agreed that at some point in thc last 2!)() years Western Europe has been secularised. It is no accident that the lllore sceptical "oices have come nlainly fi'o\ll the United States, where religious trends since the !\)(iOs havc been more conrusing and ambigllous than in Europe. 2:! During the 19()()s it did seenl that thc United States were undergoing a rapid secularisation. very similar to that which hit WestcJ'l\ Europe at the same time. Even then. however. there were somc counter-trends. \Vhile most or the 'mainstrcam' churches were losing members and there was a significant growth in the number or declared atheists and those with no religion. somc or the more conservative or 'fundaIIlentalist' evangelical chllrches were growing, and there was also a wave or religious experimentation, reflected especially in growing intcrest ill variolls li)J'Jns or Buddhis\ll and Hinduism. These trcnds bccamc morc clearly defined in the later I \)70s, when conservative Protestants distllrbcd by what they regarded as rampant liberalism, closely connected with variolls symptollls or l1loral decline. began to organise politically, By the llIid-l m~()s cvidcnce or seclilarisation in the United States was not lacking, but the picture seemed lI1uch
more complicated than it had done fifieen years helcH'c. While most of the 'mainstream' denominations were continuing to lose memhers and the number oj' those without any religion had suhstant ially increased. other churches were growing. a wiele range or new fc)rms of'religiosity had emerged. and religIOn had a high public profile. mainly because or the activities of' conservative Protestants. According to public opinion polls. about 90 per cent. or the population claimed t.o believe in God and ahout 40 per cent claimed to have taken part in religious worship during the previous week - figures t hat in both cases were considerably above those reported in most west Ellropean countries.~:\ American historians have therefc)]'c been less willing than their European counterparts to sec secularisation as an inevitable concomitant or 'modernity', or as the overriding theme of modern religious history.~·1 The {(HIrth account or secularisation, which I have called the 'Selling (~od'2') interpretation. highlights the many-sided ness of modern religious history. Its most skillitl exponent. is Jefhey Cox. This version. which accepts that secularisation has happened but dcnies its inevitability. has been E1Voured mainly by American historians. In refilting the assumption that religious decline is an inevitable concomitant or modernity (or postlllodcrnity). they have ofien drawn comparisons between declining cllllrches in Europe and thriving churches in the United States. According to these historians the cemral [H:t or the modern religious situation is competition: competition between churches, compet.ition between religious and secular ideologies. and indeed competition between the claims of religious or political idealism and those of. fc)r instance. sport or ent.ertainment..

This requires. fc)]' instance, an cnergetic recruitment policy and erlc)J'ts to idemif)! t.he church with the aspirations or large sections of the pcople. Historians in this school argue that the relat ive success or churches in the II nited States arises rrom the Elct that t.hcy have done these things much more effectively than churches in Europe, which have h-cquently been hobhled by COlllplacency-inducing traditions or State-establishment. or by overdose links with unpopular elites.:!(; So historians or many dirlcrent kinds arc agreed that secularisation is the central 'story' or Western Europe's modern religious history, but they ofr(~r quitc dirf(.'rent. and sometillles incompatible, versions of how it actllally happened.

I t seems prohable that t here have been m,~jor dirkrences in the chronology and causes or secularisation in dil'lcrent countries and dilk'rent social milieux. It. is also too readily assumed that seclllarisat ion is a coherent 'process', moving in onc direct ion, and impelled by the same force. But. there is no necessary reason why this should be so, and it is equally possible that it alkcted difkrent areas or lik Ii)]' dilkrent reasons and to a greatly varying extent. Since some or the confusion surrounding t.his subject arises li'om dil'lt~rent. understandings both of religion and or secularisation, some explanation of how I will be IlSIllg- these terms is needed. By 'religion' I mean belief in an all-powerlill and benevolent Creator, worship of' whom, and obedience to whose commandments olkrs the only path to individual and collective well-being, together with the practices and the institutions lilllllded on such belief: No doubt other definitions mi~ht be more appropriate to other societ.ies at other points in time.

I shall be using 'seclilarisation' ill three difkrcnt senses. It is essential to my argument that these senses arc dilkrent, and that in asking how 1;11' and why secuiarisation happened during this period, one needs to look at each of these areas separately. The answers may prove to be quite dilkrent. The first two senses arc Elirly obvious, and most writers have concentrated on one or the other. Firstly there is individual religious belief and practice. 'Ie) what extent has t.here been a decline in the proport ion or the populat ion having a rciig-ious vicw of t.he world, belonging to religious organisations or engaging in religious rites? Secondly there is t he role of religion in public inst itutions. Ti) what extent has there been a separation between church and state, or between church and school? The t.hird area is less clearly defined, and perhaps li)r that reason it has been relatively neglected. It is the question or how Ell' religion provided a common language, shared to sOllle extent by t he great majority of t he people, through which a wide rang-c of ideas, demands and needs could be exprcssc

Invcstigating the extent, nature
and causes or secularisation docs not preclude the rccognit ion that other thellles in modern religious history arc equally central. or even more so, that the Christian churches continued to have a major role in West European societies th],()ughout this period. that popular religion is as signilicant as mOlT institutionalised If)I'Jlls, and t hat understandings or t he 'religious' and t hc secular are cont inually evolving.

The attempt hy some historians to dismiss the liberal and radical strategies as 'a limn orsecularisatJon' is as ulljust and uncnli~htening as the attempt hy other scholars to disllliss t hc conservat ive st rategies as llIerely 'react Jonary'. The period choscnlill' this study. the years IH4H-l~)]4, saw many developments that arc very signilicant li)r our theme. Non-religious belicf~syst('ms became generally an:essiblc tot he mass or t he population, rather than heing the preserve or relatively small circlcs or intellectuals or political radicals.

The Situation in the 1840s In all threc countries, church and state were closely linked and the churches had a central role in education and social wC](~lre. England and France had gone through periods or rcvolut ionary upheaval in the scventecnth and late eighteenth centuries respectively, duringwhich the establishcd chllrch was ()\·('I'thrown. In both cases a compromisc was eventually agreed in which the power or the established church was partly restored, but the position or religious minorities was guaranteed.

Summary of the Book I agree with I\.scIlllan and CoX 7K thaI pluralism is the key to the religiOlls situ;!lion ill bter nineteenth-century Europe, and that trends towards sccllbrisalion have to be seen ill the context of' intense rcligiolls cOlllpetitioll, whether betwecn rival branches or Christianity or betwccn religious and secular views of' the world. Nineteenth-century pluralism did not necessarily lead to the sceptical rebtivislll/!1 thaI somc writers have suggested: III bet there can have been f('\\' periods of' history in which kr\,ent ideological COIlll1litments of' varying kinds were so widely held. Rather than seeing sccularisat iOll as ;111 impersonal 'process' (t he tcrm most comlllonly used in the sociological and historicallitcrature), it would be hettl'\' to sec it as a 'contest', in which adherents or rival world-views battled it OUI. Certain'" the role of'lllore impersonal f()]'(:es in undermining
religion and the churches nceds to be considered, but insurlicient account has been taken of' t he role or human agency. Secularisat ion happened at least in part bccause there were large nUlllbers of people who werc trying their hardest to hring It aboul. In some parts o(,\'Vcstern Europe these erl()J·ts were very succcssrtti. The E1Ct that in other areas secularisatlon was much more limited was at least partly due 10 Ihe df()rIS ort.hosc who devised strategies (i)]' resisting the trend. Chapter I will hegin the story in the 'crazy year' or the 'holy and tcrrible year', as It was variously namcd, or I H,I H - a year t hat cast shadows across the rest oj' the Illlletcenth ccntury, powerf'ully In!lul'nclng thl' history of' religion, as of' so much else. In France and Cermany, though much less in England, the evcnts of' this year st rengt hcned t he connect Ions between the chu rches and polit Ical conservatism and f'urthered thc tendencies towards secularity on the Len.

The 11lImbcrs or priests aud nuns increased and many new churches were buill. 10 The civil and military allthorities gave their IHoral support to the church - sometimes in ways that were mOlT revealing than they perhaps intended: the rVlayo\' or ROllcn, laying the l(lIIndation-stonc of'a new church in I Wi7, comparcd it to a ncw prison rec('ntly built ncarby. both being institutions '[e)r the IIloralisation of' the people',11 With similar cOIlsiderations in mind. the bllsiness elite were IIlllch more generous t han ever bd()J'C in gi\'ing mOIH')' to the c1l\1n:h.':!

Bllt they impl'O\Td 'lgain in the latn years orthe Second Empire. 1:1 The alliance betwcen the chllrch and the Sccond Empire was widely regarded as a marriage o{'convcnience.'11 A largc proportion of'thc clergy rcmained Legitimists, and saw Napoleon as simply the bcst available option pending the retlll'll or the BOllrhons.

Some (;ennan rulers of'f(~red special Eivours to the more conservative wings or their churches, which they saw as less tainted than their liberal counterparts by involvemcnt in revolutionary activity. and more likely to recognise the secular ruler as divinely ordall1cd. The triumph or the Lutheran conrcssionalists in Bavaria and llanovcr and of' the Pietists in vViirllemberg over their rationalist or moderate adversaries owed c a lot to the patronage or the statc. ,()
The Emergence of a Secular Left Meanwhile, the Leli was becoming gradually more secular. A local study or the '];l1'n department in south-west France has shown the importance or the years I K4K-!J! in the evolution or the 'clerical! :lnli-clerical' polarisation which dominated French politics and Illuch or daily lik in the years IK70-1!l1"1. During lK4K and the carly months of' I !i4!) there was still no tracc of' anti-clericalism ill the oratory orrcpublican politicians or in the local republican press. They hoped to win the support of'the pnests by praising the work of' the lower clergy, by promising to remedy some or their grievances, and by giving approving publicit), to the views or those clergy who were already committed to the republican callSC. The elections or May 1K4~) were a turning-point. While right-wing orators andjourrlalists were increasingly making appeals to religion. and the majority of' clergy supported the Right. fi'om late IK·19 the republican paper 1~'I'/I'{fl'lIr rill Thl'll allacked the clergy with increasing f'rcquency, and in I H!JO it began to identil)' 'the clerical party' as a

But ill practice most. or thc paper's space was cit-voted to attacking the had clergy, sometimes cmploying a ralher wild rhetoric or a kind likely to alienate most (;;lIholic rcach-rs.

Conclusion So ill England Christianity was still in the I 92()s 'contested territory'. But in FrallCC and (;erlll:lny the political use of the Bihle had fi)r long hecll a conscrv,lIi\"(' mOllopoly. 111 these two countries, the t.wo or threc decades li)llowing J H·IH marked an important stage in the process hy which religion ceased to provide a common language.

In France bcli)J'c I H,IH ;lI1tl-clericalislll was certainly widespread in the bourgeoisie, bllt various f()]'IliS orChristian radicalism were also widespread. The religious standpoint or the workers and peasants was \Try varied. hut in many areas attachment to the church was still strong. Legitimism was vcry popular among the clergy. espenally in the south and west. but the I H·IOs were a period of experimcntat Ion when a wide range of ncw possihilities wcre also emerging. In (;crmany both the atheism of the Sonal Delllocrats and Illany Leli Liherals and the Christian Conservatism and Ultramontanism that triumphed alier I H·IH withill the churches had their II1tellcctual roots inlhe IH:Hls and IH'IOs.

In the first half" or the nineteenth cC11tury religion seems to havc played a limited mle in the British Army. Arter the Crimean War, thc government decided to maintain a permanellt corps or 111ilitary chaplains, includillg Roman Catholics and Presbyterians, as well a's Ang'licans (with Wesleyans later heing' added). The chaplallls were to be officers and alit:!' I HGO they wore unifilnlls. The big military CnGl1nplllcnts built in this period all included a laruc intenlcn()llli, '"' natl<mal chapel. and fi'om I HG4 t he religious alIiliat ion or new recruits was recorded so that they could he issued with Bihles or other religious literaturc or the appropriate kind, and required to attend t he church parades of their dcno111inat ion. Whet her the result was a 'Christ ian Army' is more doubt rul. Olive Andel son argues that the main stron'hrholds or Illilitar)! reliuion in the midb Victorian period were the Artillery and the Engineers, where olIieel'S camc ('rom a more middle-class background than in other sections or the Army, and where large numbers of civilians were cmplo),ed. And Bob Bushaway suggests that reglliar soldiers in the pre-First World War period were generally distinguished by a f;I(;t!is tic mentality and a lack or interest in rcligion. 1o In this it would seem that not much had changcd since the time or the Napoleonic Wars. What is lacking, IIO",evtT, is any evidence or inst it ut ional secularisat ion. I
Patterns of Change after 1870 The major divergences between the threc countries took place with the onset or mass politics.

On the other hand. the extensive powers retained by the emperor and other (;erman rulers, together with the operation or the discl"lminator), 'three-class' voting system in state and local elections meant that the extcllt or democratisation was really more linlJted than in England or France, and that national institutions continucd to hc shaped largely fi'om above.

common with the attack on the Catholic Chllrch by the French repllblicans. no III hoth caSt'S the religiolls orders were a particlllar target. For instance, the Jesuit Law or I H72 (which applied to the whole (;erlllan Empire) expelled all f()reign Jesuits. and placed sllch extensivc restrictions on Ccrman Jesllits as to make most or the Society's work impossihle.

in I H7H, and its abandonlllent in lHH7, the Catholic Church was fiTe to rebuild it.s institutional strength. The biggest battleground between the seculariscrs and the challlpions orthe Christian State in the ninctecnth century was generally education. The solutions adopted in England and in the (;ennan states resembled those scen in France in so Eu' as the state was in Germany. and increasingly hecame in England, t he dominant voice. But they difIcred /i'om France in so Elr as religion relllained an essential ingredient or t.he English and Cerman systellls or publicly filllded educatioll. and the role of' the various religious denominations also remained important. In England the major tuming-point in the evolution or elementary education was the Education Act of' I H70. which institllled the 'Dual System' that has characterised the English school system evcr since.l;c) This consists or the co-existence or religiously ncutral schools, supported largely or entirely from public filllds. and denominational schools. supported partly fi'om public runds. The Dual ~)ystem was a cOlllpromise. which at first was bitterly opposed fi'om a variety or conflicting standpoints by important sections or public opinion. Many Anglicans argued that educat ion neecled to have a consistent religious basis and that it should socialise children into membership or a specific religious community, since religioll could not be practised in isolation. They thcre/(»)'e wanted a COlltinuation or the older systelll whereby most elementary schooling was provided by churches or church-based educational societies. assisted by government grants. Their solution to the prohlem that there were Elr too kw such schools to educate all the nation's childrcn was sim ply to increase t he size or t he grants. In t he I H;iOs and early I K(iOs most Nonconf()]'Inists had been 'VoluntarYIsts', who opposed any fi.)l'll1 of state intervention (wInch. in their view. usually bvourcd t he Anglicans). and argued that t he provision of'schools should be left entirely to voluntary cfI()rts. However. hy the later I HGOs large llllmbers or Nonconf()rmists had cOllie to realise the impracticability or this method. By now there were many Nonconf(ll'll1ists supporting the National Education League. which campaigned f()r a cOlllprehensive system of liTc and lion-sectarian publicly runded schools. Nonconf()]'Inists were. however. divided hetween those who thought that such schools should provide religious teaching or an undenominational character. and those who wanted these schools to be entirely secular. leaving religiolls teaching to the churches. The latter position was naturally also El\'oured

Both belicvcd that religion must be at the core or the system or popular education. Personal religiOUS cOllviction certainly played a part in this. Conscn'ative politicians and higher state onicials included in their ranks considerable nllmlwrs or Pietists, who believed that education must conlribute to the salvation or the so1l1 as much as to the w('IElre or the state. and that the two kinds of' consideration were quite compatible. Similar convictions inllucnced many memhers or the Centre Party, not least those who wcre priests, though equally impol'lant in inllucncing Catholics was suspicion or the state and a strong sense or cOIl/('ssional identity.

For all these reasons, religion and nat ionalislll were not always clearly distinguishahle in the (;crmany or the latn nineteenth century. For instance Kuhlcmann notes that a handhook Ii)!' teachers used in cast Westphalia arollnd I !)()O 'spoke or Christi,lIIit)' and the (;('J'llIans (fJi?II/SI'IitIlI/l) in the same breath', and claimed that the Christian duty to love one's neighhour reklTed abovc all to one's duty to love those speaking the same language and belonging to tlte same race. From the I HHOs it was cOlllmon to hang lil(~-size portraits or national heroes on the school walls, and the ligures chosen typically included t hc cmperor, Bismarck, Bliicher, Moltke and Lllthcr.I()~ The other exaillple, which I shall consider more bric/ly, is a quotation, cited hy Ilumphrics, /i'om an interview with Florence l'vlllllcn, a Bristoll;lCtory worker and hOllsewik, horn in I H!l9: The best thing abollt school in them days was that they taught you right li'olll wrollg.

And what arc tlte origins or the concepts or 'right' and 'wrong' which Florence Mullcn regards as the essence or education? It is unlikely that t hey were derived li'olll cOllsiderat ion or t he empire more probable that they ;mlSC Ollt or sOllie li)rm or religion or hllmanism. In this case it would seem that the rhetoric IS patriotic,

In Elct these concerns were often so tightly intcrll1eshecl at this time that it is difficult, and possibly misleading, to separatc thel1l. vVltereas in France, the secularisation or the state ran ahead or the secularisation or everyday lire, in England, and evcn lllore in Cennany, the reverse was truC'. The tendency I(lr law to lag 1~lr hehind practice in matters or religion and morality, except where radical politICians arc able to l(lITe the pacc, is well illllstrated 11l by the history or sabbatarian lc)!;islation. !

Bul there was gcnerally more I hall one possible way or respolldillg to Ihese changes, and Ihe choices that pcople made stemllled alleast partly fi'om rcli).!;ious and political ideology, as welL or course, as economic inlcresls. Sccularisal ion did nol just happen: it was welcomed or aci ively prollloled by sOllle social groups, and rcscnled, or evcll rcsisled, by olhers. In expbining Ihe different nalure, cxtenl and pace or sccu brisat ion in difrerent cou nl ries olle needs to consider t he balance of' power between dif'krent social classes, polillCal parlies, or religious cOIlll11unilies. For instance, ill (;el'lnany Ihc separation or church and state, which had becn proposed by Ihe Frankrurl Parliament as long ago as I N,f!), becamc a polilical impossihility in the suhsequenl cra or reaclion, and relllained oul or Ihe queslion unlil the ElII or Ihe lllonarchy.

In England the ElCtthat the l1Jain opposilion to the estahlisllCd church came fi'OIll devout Nonconfi)nnisIS, rather than /i'Ol1J Secularisls, ensurcd that public bodies ;1I1d national inslilulions continucd 10 hc strongly influenced by rcligion, c"cn ir it oficn took a llOn-scclari,lIl I()rm.

The next chapter willloo\;. al Ihe religious attiludes of'various seclions or the populalion, with a special cmphasis on Ihose groups which were Inosl precociolls in the rejcclion orrcligiolls helierand praclicc, alld in sllpporting sleps towards secularisalion.

In all three countries S01lle social groups were precocious in their alicnat ion rrOln religious inst it ut ions, in t heir adopt ion or irreligious ideas or their prolllOtion or secularising tcndellcies in society. Anstocrats were gellerally close to their church, and what.ever thell' personal cOllvictiolls Illight havchecn, seldom supported seCldansing measures. 1 The urhan working cbss were generally th~~ ).!;roup most alienated from the church, though they vaned III their opcnness to irreligious ideas and their attitude to sendarisill).!; policies. The position or other groilps. such as the prol'cssional ,Ind Imslll,csS classes. the lower middle class, the peasantry or the rural worklll).!; class was more varied, both hetween countrics and olicn within count ries, The rest or t his chapter will look ,It those ).!;roups which played a si).!;nificant p,lrt ill ,1<"'al1cing secularisation in one or more or these cOlllltries,

An allon),lllolis pocm puhlished in a local paper in the (;erman textile town or Elhnfdd in I H!i:i captures this fi.:e1ing rather poignantly:
Catholicism declined as Legitimism disappeared, and as class antagonism became an essential bet of' economic and political lik. The workers seem to have remallled strongly Catholic at least lIntil the I H/IOs, The hold or the church and or Catholic Elith were reflected in the enthusiastic support f(lr the missions held dllring the Restoration and suhsequent deknce of' the mission crosses, which hecame a prime target fill' anti-clericals aficr the revollltion of' IH:Hl; the response to the cholera epidemic or IH:~/l-:i; the POPllIarity or Catholic processions; and the links between the church and sllch trade orgalllsat ions as t he fishermen's corporat iOll, In the 1H40s and 1H:iOs all this began to change, In those two decades the population more than douhlcd as a reslllt or massive immigration, and rates or Catholic practice hegan to drop rapidly. In these Illiddle years or the century there seems to have been a tripartilc division or the city's working class, Local traditions seem to ha\'e survived hest in the older districts, alllOllg workers hol'll in Marseilles, spe;dzing I'rovell(:al and belonging to certain exclusivc lrades where cmployment was orten hereditary, including dockers and fishermcn belonging to thcir own corporations and a variety or port-based artisans, The working-class radicalislll, which first bccame a significant (;lCl()l' between IH'IH and IH:iI, had its basis among artisans, es]>eciallv building workers, horn outside the cit\', rVlcan~vhilc, the many un~killed in;migrants, drawn especially rroJ;l Italy, remained remote both rrom the church and fi'om radicalislll, Isolated hv \;1l1l!U;Hl'C, bv Ion!.!: hours orJahour orten includin!.!: Sunday, by fi'equent moves in search or work, and often hI' se\,CIT po\'erty, they remained in the first generation a group apart. The decline of' Catholic practice in these years afli.:cted all areas of' the city, but it was in the poorest districts that the drop was sharpest. In the long nlll, the old-established local working class was afkctcd too, So all sections or the working class ill Marseilles fiHlnd their rebt ionship wit h t he Cat holic Ch urch placed under st rain in the middle and later years orthe nineteenth century, For SOllle, thollgh by no means all, this was associated with gl'OWillg political radicalism, I shall return to this radicalislll ill a later part or this chapter, 'It) whal ('xtent this lack of'involvement in the church was associated with atheism or agnosticism is harder to say. There is certainly plenlY orcvidence that poverty and deprivation cOllld lead to resentment towards (:od, and a cynICal attitude towards idealists and activists or all kinds, whether religious, political or simply Illlmanitarian,:111 On the olher hand, church charities could pia),

Middle-class repuhlicans, whether Protestants, ./ews, anti-clCl'ical Catholics, or Freethinkers, shared a numher or COllll1l0n obJcctions to the contenq)()rary Catholic Church,:\!) It was very hierarchical, whereas rcpnhlicans were. ;It least in principle. comllliued to dClllOcracy and equalit)" The clergy. hishops and Popc were. at every level rrom the global to the most parochial. accused of'havlIlg 'a spirit of' dOlllination'. This was the essellce of' (;alllhetta's EllllOUS speech of' I H77. concluding: 'Clericalislll? That is the ellemy!': (;entlelllcn, if'w(' do not act quickly to resist this spirit orinvasioll. which touches c\'crything and negln:ts nothing - hccause it is fill' this reason that in Ellllilies, in workshops, ill the fields, e\'cry",hne ill Elct. the opillion, the ccrtainty has spread that ultra1ll0llLlIlISIll, clericalism, is all-powerlid to protect the material illterests ortheir clielltele - ir. I say, we do not act quickly to resist this spirit or invasion and or corruption, it will achieve its double goal or cOl}(Jltcring the state alld directing the masses. 10 So, as Camhetta dearly indicated. questions or powcr were crucially involved. The most illlportant objection to the church was that its links with reactionary old clitcs and influencc over thc peopk posed a double threat to the liheral repuhlic. And even those republicans who had somc sympathy with Catholicism ill its liberal or gallican 1()f'IllS wer(' repelled by the dominant ultramontanism or the second hall' or the ninctecnth century, both because or the Syllabus of' Errors and the dog-Illa or Papal InEtllibility, and because ot'the 'insult to the progress orscicncc' cOlltained in the claillls that miracles had takcn place at I.a Salctte and l.ourdcs,11 Though liberal repuhlicans were Etirly mlH:h agreed as to what was wrong with the contemporary (:atholic (:hurch, thcy had widely varying views as to what li)l'llis of'religion or world-view ought to take its place, The Freemasons, f()r instance, included among thcir ranks, as well as Protestants and ./ews, the two main currents or middle-class FreetllOught. the 'materialist' and the 'spiritualist', The materialists rejected all li)l'llls or supernaturalism. The), hoped to suhject all areas of'the world and orhulllan lik to scientilic analysis. In the 1H()()s materialist scientists. with their stronghold in the Paris Medical Faculty. had fillll1d themselves in conflict Oil various occasions with the university authorities or the inlf)crial governlllent. In a (,([11.1'1' d/I)hrl' or 1HGH a thesis suhmitted to the Faculty entitled 'A Medical-Physiological Study or Iluman Free-will' (which concluded
TilE IW:E-SF'ITERS
that therc was no such thing) was rejected by order of' the govcrnment.· I:! With the advent of' the Third Republic many these filrmcr rebels moved into prominent academic positions. The spiritualists. by cont rast, believed in God and the immortalit y or t he soul. Their religion was hot h universal and progressive - they rejected t.he specificities and the allegcd finality or revealed religion, At the same time. in spite or their grcat respect fill' science, they saw III oral regeneration. rather than advanclI1g scientific knowledgc, as the indispensable key to hUlllan progress, And rather than rejecting, as t he materialists did. all t he prophets or previous Elit hs. they tended to clailll thclll all as their own, II' the lIlaterialists had Zola, the spiritualists were able to call on the support oj' an even bigger name that or Victor Ilugo. Spiritualislll merged into the IllOSt liheral end or Protestalllislll where. around the end or the nineteenth century. the passionatc cOll1mitment to li'ce enquiry and liberty of' conscience had led to a drastic pruning or traditional dogma, By t he I HHOs, however, at heism was advancing wit hin the organised Frecthought 1l10Velllent, where spiritualislll was on en regarded as a survival fi'om an earlier era, How Ell' such views retained a hold on the rank and file of' anti-clerical republicans is harder to say. One small pointer to the continuing vitality orboth the Illaterialist and the spiritualist traditions within French sccularislIl is provided hy an enquiry conducted by ./acqucs and Mona ozour in the I \l()Os. They sent questionnaires to t.housands or retired prinlary school teachers, who had started teaching hel()J'(,: 1914 - the sccular proression par excellence in t he heyday or ant i-clcricalislll. When they were asked which authors had influenced thelll. by 1;11' thc 1l10st (j'cqucnt Illcntions were or Anatole France (l~) pCI' cent). Hugo (1 H per cCllt) or Zola (I!) pCI' cent) - all wntcrs noted li)r their anti-clericalism, hut or three very different kinds, Zob heing an atheist, lIugo a deist. and France heing noted Illainly fill' his ironic scepticism. The authors or the study note that the respondents f'requently reported that havlIlg been helievers in their childhood and sceptics in their young adulthood, the), had Illore recently returned to a lund or belieI', though without dogmas or fi)l'lllal practicc. They olien approved or 'religious fix'ling', while heing suspicious of' the church.

Masterman, was an Ang-Io-Catholic who had been strong-Iy interested in ordination. At the locallcvcl, NOllconrormists, often drawn from lowcr down the social scale than their mid-Victorian predccessors, still played a (TlH'ial role ill Liheral politics, and ill f'urtherillg- the expandillg- wle ol'local coullcils. NOllconl()l'lnist Illillisters were still among- the most influential sllpporters of' the Liberal cause. In the south London horollg-h or Lamheth, Ic)]' instance, around the turn of' the c('ntury, the Ieadcrs oftlw Prog-rcssivcs, a coalition or Liberals, Radicals and Labour, included sevcral shopkeepers, a hllilder, an undertaker, a Nonconlc)rmist minister, and SOIllC who were tcachers or local g-overnmcnt cmplo),ees. Man), of' them were Cong-reg-ationalists or Wcslcyans. 'Thesc local polit icians', writes Cox, 'looked upon Lamhet h's chapels as bases li'om which the), strug-g-Ied to promote social and political relclI'lll, to co-ordinate voluntary and govcrnmcnt act ivit y IClr the im provenlellt of' t he condit ion or Cod's su rkringpoor, and to create a more .lust and Codly society in Eng-land.'Ii~)

But t.he tensions became Illll<:h more acute li'olll I H79 onwards, as repllblican governments made the secular school the key instrument in the inculcation or repuhlican val lies and loyalties. Already in the I H(}()s, when att<:;ndance at chapel was cOlllpulsory, it was said that students at the Fcole NOrlll(t/e SnjJhll'IllP in Paris 'showed a studied disrespect Ii)]' relig-ion, sh~lmbling illto chapel in slippers ' unc Ier arm.'

In one Norlllan villag-e in 1909 the newly arrivcd ~() year-old teacher fClIInd herself boycotted fClr a year by sixty-onc or the sixty-three children in the village afier she rcf'used to withdraw a history textbook condelllned by the bishops. She was vcr)' proud or the LICt that she 'held up hig-h the secular and repuhlican flag-' throug-hout the year, thus becoming- a hcminc of' the seclliarists of the d<:;partmcnt, and eventually most or the children returned to schooL':; This teacher held a trump can\. since hcrs was the only school in the villag-c, but where there was also a rival (:atholic school the conflict was likely to last Illuch longer. Even where the teachers went to their schools hoping- to keep the religious peace, the local situation ofien made neutrality, let alone any kind of practising Catholicism, diflicult.

Going to Church
In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries there were many parts or Europe where regular church-going or participation in COll1lllunion was legally required - even ir the enf()rcemcnt of' the law could never he totally cfkctive. In England, the Elizabethan statute prescribing weekly attendance at the parish church was repealed only in I H4G, though it hecame a dead letter after the Act or 'I()leration in I ()HD. By removing all penalties fi'om Nonconf(mnist worship the Act also opened the way to those who worshipped nowhere. In most of'the (;erman states, there were laws requiring attendance at church, though these were no longer cnf()rced after ahout the middle or the eighteenth century. In France, church-going was not required by the state, but those biling to receive comllllll1ion at Easter could be barred /i'om marrying or acting as godparents. By the eighteenth century these penalties were seldom rigorously applied, hut participation in Easter Communion contllllied to be very high, at least ill rural areas, until the Revolution.' It is meaningless to compare levels or participation bcf(n'C and aller the lifting of' such requirements. But as increasing degrees or religious /i'eedom became available, patterns or observance began to diverge, and statistics of' the various f(n'ms or religious practice Iwcame the means Elvoured, both hy contemporaries and by historians, of' measuring t.he levels or krvour or alienation in dif'krent regions or social classes.~ There arc certainly many pitEllls awaiting t.hose who do this. Anyone who assumes that a full church means a parish of' devout. Christians might take note of' Samuel Butler's typically sardonic account of' the congregat ion at his f~lI her's Nottinghamshire church around I H40:

[n France, both contelllporary obserHTs and historians have made a great deal of'what was called 'resj}('rllllill/(f/Il" which meant an unquestioning acceptance of' t he locally prevailing norms of' behaviour.") [n some parts of' nineteenth-ccntury France this led to f'ull churches and in others it led to empty churches. There were many people who kept their beliefs to thcmselves and ()lIowed the local custom. There were also dif'ft:rcnccs betwecn difkrent religious traditiOIlS, and hetween those of' similar traditiolls in difkrent countries, as to the relative importance attached to difkrent rites. For instance, III the ninetcenth ccntury English Protestants attended Sunday church services ill much greater numbers than (;crman Protestants, while Ell' more (;el'lllan Protestants participated in comllllinion at least Ollce ill the year than did those in England. l; And while regular attendance at S1lnday services was generally regarded by nineteenth century Protcstants as being both a religious and a social duty, this could not have quite the f(m:e of' the Catholic teaching, according to which those who lllissed Sunday lllass without good reasoll were ill a state of' lllortal sill. [n gcneral, the Elilure by a Catholic to go to church on Sunday, to reccivc communion at Easter, to marry in church, or to have childrell baptised, was mort' likely than a corresponding Elilure by a Protestant to represent a deliberate defiance of tile church or rejection of'tllC f;lith. Catholic teaching was nllich more explicit and insistent than t hat of'most Protestant

churches in inculcating these duties and in warning of' the divine punishment awaiting those who neglected thcm.! The great appeal of' religious stat ist ics is, of' course, that t hey allow a degree of' precision that is otherwise impossible. The exact date when church-going began to increase or decline can be identified, alld fluctuations in the size of' congregations can be related to political or economic events, to the publication of' particular books, or the preaching of'a popular evangelist. Statistics of'church attendance or participation in communion provide the hest evidence oj' the extent and distribution of' attachment to the various churches. The), cannot, however, he llsed as evidence fi)r religious belief' or a lack oj' helief [n view of' the dif'f<'Tences between countries and between religious traditions in the significance of' particular rites, it is also more revealing to use the statistics to trace developments within particular coulltries and traditions, rather than to make comparisons bet ween them.
Patterns of Religious Observance c.1850 Patterns of' religious observance in western Europe already varied cnormously at the middle of' the nineteenth century. Around IH!iO the proportion of' the adult population attending church on an English Sunday varied (i'om around 70 per cent in the St [ves district of' I [untingdonshire to ahout 1;\ per cent in Longtown, a remote district ofCumberJand, running along the Scottish border. In France the proportiol1 of' Easter communicants in the population aged thirteen and over varied li'OIn ~() per cent in the diocese of' Nantes to 7 pCI' cent in t he diocese of' Versailles. [f' figurcs f()I' smaller units were a\'ailal>lc, t hey would ckarly show e\Tn nlOre ext remc variations. [n (;ermany in l~(i:! the numberof'l'rotcstant cOlllmunions in relation to the total Protestant population in I ~(i:! varied li'om ~;l per cent in Hesse-Nassau and Schaul1lburg-Lippe to 17 per cent in Berlin. (,Ii) discover what proportion of'adults were comlllunicants, onc would dearly need to deduct children li'om t hc populat ion total and multiple communions f'rom the COl1l111l111ion total. j\ study of' Hanover suggests that t he number of' t Ill' bt tn was small. t hough in some rural areas t hey may have been more fi-cquent.)H linl()rtunatciy, statistics of' Jewish attcndance at synagogue, or other f()rms of'.Jewish religious practice, arc scarce. Rare examples arc the British religious census of' I~!i I and the religious census of'

These figurcs confinn a n1l1l11ll'r of' points that arc also suggested by other sources: that attendancc at synagogue was mainly an activity or adult males IlO less thall 7i'1 per cent oj' the adults coullted at the London census in I ~)(l:\ were men; that attendance on an average sabbath was relativcly low - Elldellllan estllllatcs that about 10 pCI' ccnt of' British .Jews wcnt to synagogue on the day oj' the census in I i'I!ll; and that attendance was much higher on certain I'cstivals - an cstimated 2!l pCI' ccnt or London .Jews were counted at serviccs in the census or I ~)O:), and there were others attending smaller synagogues omittcd by the ccnslls-takers.!) Throughout the nineteenth century, alld into the carly twentieth century, complaints o/' declining attendance at synagogu{' were rik. We lind thelll In, Ii»' instance, Hamburg. in the early nineteenth century, wherc they provided a major pretext li)r the rc/ill'l11 movement. ill Paris ill the I i'l70s, and in London in the early twentieth century.IO But sinc(' precise ligures arc so seldom available, it appears to be impossible to trace the changes over time.

(4) Those where religious practicc increased during this period (e.g., t hose parts oj' Alsace-LolTainc t hat were annexcd by (;ermany III I i'l71 ). There were also some places where religious practice has always been low - or at. least had been low since long beli)re I i'I!lO. This W;IS the case in SOIllC li)rest, marsh, heath or coastal settlements, where IlO church had ever been built, and the people seldom had llIuch tontact either with the clergy or with other figures oj'authority. For instance, the 'wild mcn oj' t he marshes' at CUlnes Ilcar (:alais were said to live 'isolated, without religion, speaking who knows wklt languagc'. Ilcre, as III man)' such areas, the first churches came in the second hal/' oj' t he nineteent h cent ur)" and as II ilaire COl1llllents, Catholicism and 'civilisation' tended to advance together.

Sccondly, the opposition to the Revolution or many of' t he clergy and or t he st rongly (:at holic peasantry or t he west hclped to unleash a violent anti-clericalism, which lert a permanent mark in Paris and other strongholds or revolutionary militancy.

The Importance of the Years 1848 to 1914 Ilowever, there wcre still at the middle or Ihe ninetecnth centllry large areas or western Europc wherc going to church Oil Sunday or going to COl1llllllnion at Easter were things takcn fi)r granted by the majority or til(' population. and Ilot signif)!ing any special degree or piety or religiOUS commitment. By 1914 snch areas were the exception ralher than the rule. By then there wcre SOl1lC areas where those who \\'cnt to church Oil Sun(lay cxposed themselvcs to ridiq( cllk;-' there wcre many morc where chllrch-goers were regarded
as 'religious people', whose piety, whether respected, admired, or merely' tolerated, was the result or a personal choice.~7 All three countries saw an overall decline in chllrch-going during this period, in spite of numerous local variations (see tables 1-:\). The period bet weell the revoillt ions or 1~4 ~ and t he outbreak or t he First World War marks a very important stage in the declinc or church-going in England, France and (;cnnany. T\vo types or general explanation have most commonly beell advanced to explain this Etct: the impact or Darwinism and or other new intellectllal developments, such as hiblical criticism; and the impact of indllstrialisation and urbanisation, and associated processes of 'modernisation'. A variant on the second explanation is the idea that increasll1g prosperity in the later nineteenth century cncollraged thc idea that religion was no longer needed, and thus \cd to indif~ krencc. However, the more closely one looks at the evidence, the harder it becomes to fit it into any sllch overall scheme. In the first place, it nceds to be noted that the patterns orchange in the three countrIes were very dirkrellt. In England the decline in chllrch-going came relatively late - mostly alitT abollt I ~~)O (sec table :\). Bllt when It came, it an(~cted all regiolls and social classes, t hOllgh Cat holies less than Protestants. I lowevcr. with Catholics comprising only abollt !i per cent or the poplliation in this period, they were a mllch less important minority thall in (;ermany. In (;ermany, as already mentioned, there had been a substantial decline in Protestant religiOUS practice in the later eighteenth and early nineteenth centllrles. There was a rurther decline, in most parIS of' Protestant Germany in t he I ~()Os and I ~7()s. Then bel ween about I ~~() and I ~9!i t hc level or practice stabilised, bcf()rc going into another period or less rapid decline bclween I~~)!i and l~lI:):2H (sec table I). In Germany, however. the confl~ssional divide was fill1damental: while Protestant religious practice declined in all social classes and in all regions during the second hall' or the century, Catholic practice remained high, and /()lIowed its own quite dif'fcrent patterns or development. In France, Gibson inlerprets the figures as showing a gradual increase in the first halrorthe century, reaching a hir.;h point around I f)()O, a stabilisation in the I ~(jOs and early 1~70s, and then a steady decline in t he period I ~7!)-1 ~)O!i. f()llowed by a slight recovery in the period up to the First World vVar I.~~) However, regional variations arc so great that generalisatioll is dinicult (see table 2).

The theory that the rising standard or living in the later nineteenth ccntury was linked with growing religious apathy has bccn powerrully argued by ,\. I), (;ilberl. lie sees religion as something which people 'turn to', when they ran sec no human solution to their problems. lie stresses the role orlllcdical advances in reducing the nllml)('r or crisis-points in most people's lives.:\(j This thcory seeills at iirst sight vcry plausihle, but it docs not fit the ElctS. In England throughout the ninetccnth ccntllry the social group most actively involved in org;lIliscd religion was also the most prosperOIlS, n;uncly the uppcr middle class. In France during the second hall' or thc nincteenth rentnry religious involvement by the bourgeoisie was incrcasing, while working-class involvement was diminshing. The motivcs fi))' religions invol\'l~ment cannot hc reduced to tilc scarch fi)r help, and there arc plenty or cxalllples or those who saw their prospcrity as a divine reward rather than as sOl1lething which made religion unlH.'C('ssary.:n Rather than th('1'e being anyone master-ElCtor that explains the declinc in church-going during this period, there were a nUllll)('r or ElCtors which potentially contrihuted to this trend, including econolnic and social upheavals associated wit h indust rialisation or urbanisation; the radicllisation or particular sections or the population, as a result or dramatic political evcnts or the intensification or class conflict: the expanding role or thc statc In areas like cduC

states and provinces in the years 1H~)]-!i showed a strong positive correlation hetwecn the Protestant COil! III II ilion rate and the proportion or the population living in rural areas, and also a posItivc correlation, though somcwhat weaker, hetwecn the comnllinion rate and the proportion or the economically active employed ill agricllltllre.: IH As already indicated, the low ratcs or religiolls pract icc ill many Germany towns preceded t he rapid growt h or population in the nineteenth century. However, it is evident that the ll1assi\'(~ shifis orpopulation fi'olll countryside to cities and industrial regions in the second hall' or the nineteenth century presented the churches with enormous logistical problellls, as well as other lIlajor challenges. AllIlost every growing city ElCed a shortage or chllrches and clergy at some point In the nineteenth century. In the extrellle case or Berlin, the ratio or Protestant clergy to Protestant population, which had been 1::Hl()() in I HOO, had grown to I :4:100 in I H!iO, and 1:~)!i~l:1 in I H!)(). By the latter date the largest or llIany 'giant parishes', Holy Cross in Luiscnstadt, contained SOIllC 12H,O()O peopic. In IH!)1, when the national avcrage was I pastor fe)r IHH7 Protestants, othcr great cities, while Ellling short or the situation in Berlin, still showed very unf;l\'ourahle ratios, fi)r instance H J()() in Hamburg, !i!)77 in Dresden, !i()()!i in Leipzig, !i:12/1 in Chemnitz and If.14() in BrCnlell.:I~) j\s well as long-tcrm shortages or clergy, churches and parish centres, llIany other f;lctors might contribllte to the dcclinc or religiolls participation in areas with rapidly growing poplliation, whether cities, or newly developing industrial regions. For Instance, illlmigrants to cities or indllstrial regions sOllletimes ITIlI;uncd highly lllobile. and lilllnd it dirficllit to lelrll1 close relations with a part icular pastor or congregat iOll. l() The Elct that 11111Ch rllral rcligion was c10scly linked with the rertility or the land, protecting animals rrom disease or the cult or local saints, and that confi)rJnitv was llI
u·\(; political nIO\'CnH'nts and rival systcms or bclier, o/"lt:rcd nUlllenlllS altcrnativcs to the church. The estahlisllIllcnt of" EH"torics or mines in areas previously dOlllinated by agriculture or dOlllcstic industry could havc similar consequences, including, fill' installcl', a large influx of" population, antagollislll I)('t \\'('cn t h(' IlCWCOlllcrs and the long-sct tied local population, ncw work-rhythms (onen including Sunday work), and the dcn'lopm('nt of" a yout h cult UI'C, as young people earning relativcl)' high wagcs could ,l/"lilnlto igllol'e th(' moral prohibitions illlposed hy the church or hy thcir parents. Thcse ncwly industrialising COlllll1ll1lities frequcntly underwcnt a dcclim: in church-going aile! other fill'lllS of" religious observallce.

Ilowcver, these tendcllcics should not bc exaggerated. I\lost towns had a vigorous rcligious Iik, illvol\'ing a suhstantial proportiOlI of" the population, cven ir thc proportion involvcd was scldolll as gre;lt as in the Illorc devout rural arcas.le! Nor did rapid urhan growth nccessarily lead to any precipitous rcligious dcclinc. Whcre cst,lhlished churches were able to respond to the needs 01" growing cities by, liJr instance, recruiting clergy, building churchcs, and providing cducational, charitahle and rene;)t ional Llcilit ies, they olien succeeded in at least stahilising the sitllation. llilaire cites the example 01" the textile districts round RouiJaix and 'Iclllrcoing, olle or the kw industrial arcas of" Frallcc where the parochial lletwork kcpt pacc with the growth ill popldatioll.

192 bd())'(.~ 17H~). Under t he Second EllIpire these st rongl)' Cat holic hun ilies would provide a lllodel I()]' ot hers, and a base lilr Cat holi(' organisations. Already in the I H40s there were signs that previously irn~ligi()lIs melllbers of' t he bourgeoisie were interested in the ielea that religioJl ('()uld provide a basis I()]' social cohesion, if' it could be detached (i'olll the reactionary extremism of' the Restoration years. In this respect the appointlllent frolll I H44 of' a series of' politically moderate archbishops helped. Once again, the years I H,IH-S I marked a turning-point. The panic induced hy the ./unc Days in Paris, and more generally the (~a rs provoked hy t he massive radicalisat ion of considerable scct ions of' the working class, the peasantry and the lower middle class during these years, led to ;1 llIajor crisis of conscience on the part of'thl' wealthy bourgeoisie. In particular they took advantage of the great expaJlsion of' Catholic secondary education (illlowing the Falloux law to p]'()vide their children with the religious schooling which c thc), had 1]('\'(']' received themsclves. )(, As in so many other religious revivals of' the ninetccnth century, it was women who led the way; but their hushands. and lllore especially their sons, f(lllowed. When in lH(iO an elderly merchant who had remained a bithf'ul disciple of' Voltaire, came to write his spiritual testament, he expressed regret at the new spiritual climate in the city, and anxiety that when he was dying SOIlU'Olle might send lilr a priest. In the laller part of the century. an inl]lortant minority or the bOl1rgeoisie (usually drawn from lowe}" down t he scale or wealt h and status) remained t rue to t he older lihtTal ;1I1d ant i-clerical t radit ions. But by I H~)2 t he religious situation seemed to have changcd so Elr that when a Parisian preacher ClnlC to deliver some Lcnt sermons he declared himself 'ovcrwhelmed' by the sight ofa congregation orseHTalthousand, or whom t wo-fin.hs were men. The new religious atmosphere was reflected in domestic piety (ElIllilics gathering to chant the Ave Maria together), in consen'atlve politics (onen inextricably bound up with Catholic 1~lith), alld ill active support filr charities or all kinds. Chaline comments that 'this world, otherWIse so hard in matters of business, and so concerned ahout its OWIl interests. cOlild show an astonishing gcnerosity, sacrificing large amounts timc and money'. I Ie cites the example or the banker, Paul Le Picard. a k;lding llll'mIJer of the St Vincent de Paul Society, regarded as a saint hy SOllle, and hy most as a hit mad.c,i In (;erlllany the relat ionship hetween polit ical and religious loyaltics was less de;lI'-cut than in France. but it was nonetheless
or
important. In Berlin in t he later part or the nineteent h ccntll ry, lill' instance, a major ElCtor in the city's irreligious atmosphere was the [;lcl that most or the popuiation were supporters or the Social Democrats or the Len. Liberals, and saw the Protestant church as a st ronghold or conservat ism. Conversely. t hose groups that werc closest to the church, such as aristocrats. the military, state officials c and the lower middle class, tended to be politically conscrvative. ,:-; Church-going in Berlin had been in decline since at least the later eighteenth ccntury, so the growth or liberal and socialist politics cannot he seen as a major cause or the decline. On the other hand, this can he argued with much more plausibility ill Saxony or some west (;erlllall industrial districts, where the level or religious practice was still relatively high around the middle orthe nineteenth century. For instance, in t he I H20s and I H;)()s the vVuppertal was st ill noted as a stronghold or Protestant revivalislll, with Pietist textile employers like the Engels EU11ily and equally devout weavers. Friedrich Engels, who was horn in Barmen in I H20. complained that whcn he was growing up the only interests or the workers werc religion and drillk. By thc I HSOs, howcver, while the interest ill drink remained very much alivc. there were li-cquent comments on the decline 0(' working-class religion. Clergymell blamed the hurgeolling urban leisure world, with its theatres, conG'l'ts. dancing halls and hrothels, as well as 1ll1lllCrOUS pubs. i\ more rundamental EHtor secms to have heen the increasingly tense relations lwtween employers and workers, which made it difficult to bring lllcmhers or difkrent classes together in the same church. In the I H20s and 1H;)(ls it secms that patriarchal relations betweell merchants and weavcrs had st ill heen a reality. lilt he I H'lOs relat ions were deteriorating, especially in those hranches of the textile industry where dOlllestic production was gwing way to workshop and EIClory. III fv/ay I H4~), while Pietist merchants rcmained among the most loyal subjects or the Pruss ian lllonarchy, many workers took part in all insurrection which controlled the town or Elberkld fill' a wcek.:)~) In I HSS and I HS7 there were major st rikes. The 'old Wuppertal traditons' survived to some cxtent amollg locally horn domestic textile workers, but they becamc increasillgly marginal in the I H(iOs and I H70s with immigration from other parts or (;erman)" and t he beginnings or socialist propaganda. The history or a working-class parish later recalled that 'At that tillle there was no sectIon of society in which it was harder to declare yourselr a Christian.

that, 111 particular, the miners' strike of I H9H marked a turningpoinl.liti But evell in south \Vales, lllorc recent research suggests that t he decline or working-class part icipalion in t he chapels was more long drawn out and gradual, and thaI relationships Iwt\Veen the chapels and the growing fe)1'Ccs or Labour and socialislll were many-slded.1i? In England it would he very l1Iuch harder to arguc thaI political evcnts played a major rolc in thc decline or churchgoing during the period rrom thc later IHHOs until the First World \Var. In most parts of urhan and industrial England the level of working-class religious involvement \Vas already considerably lower thall ill south Wales, so that the nUllllwr or those whose churchgoing hahits were likely to he challenged hy political radicalisatioll was smaller. Equally important was the 11lghly pluralistic character of English urhan religion, and the very varied response of the English clll1rche.<; to the advances of the labour movement 111 this period. There was certainly an important secularist strand in English lahour and socialist organisations, hut even in London, ortCIl regarded as the st1'Onghoid of working-class secularism, it was Elr fl'om being the only strand. In many parts or the country, the Nonconfe)rmist strand was very importanl. And in certain localities, such as Liverpool. Manchester and the East End of London, Roman Catholics or .Ie\\'s played a major role. If Anglicans tended to be seriollsly llllder-represcntcd, t here were major individual cxccptions to the ruic, including most notably (;corge Lanshury, [i)]- l1lany years the leading Lahour figure in the East End of London, later cditor of the nllil)' I/I'mld, and [inall), leader or the Lahour Party. There wcre also a nllmher or locally influcntial socialist Anglican fiS cl ergy men. While direct rciatiollships between the rise or Labour politics and the decline in church-going were limited, it can lllore plausibly he argued t hat changes in class rclat ionships, which might be SUI1lmarIsed as 'the decline of paternalism' did have an important role. I;') During the period fl'om the I H!iOs to the I HHOs large paternalist employers had exercised a dominant inllucnce on lire in many p,lrts oi'inc\usti'ial England. Olien they were men deeply im'olved in the lives of' the comlllunities where they made their mone)" sitting on the town council, belonging to a local church, patl'Onising cricket clubs and garden shows, and cultivating personal relationships with their workf()rce. By a cOlllbination or carrots, sticks, and sOllletimes personal charisma, they were olien ahle to havc considerahle inllu('nee on the political and religious hehaviour of their work[im:e. By

the 1H90s all this was beginning to change. Where the older generat ion of employers had lived dose to t 1](' works and prided t hel1lselves on knowing by name most of (he people who worked therc, the younger generation were buying country houses, adopting the style of' lik of' the wealthier gentry, and detaching- themselves as Illllch as possible fj'Olll the urban smoke. The trend towards more impersonal and 'rational' styles or lllanagement was in any case inevitable as l;u11il), firms were increasingly tra11s[i)rmed into limited liahility companies with their orIices in London. Meanwhile, especially alter the highly publicised strikes in the later I HHOs and early I H90s, trade union organisat ion was spreading to previously unorganiscd sect ions of the Iahou l' [()rce, and the Social Democrat ic Fednalion (I HH'I) and Independent I,abour Part y (I H~):)) were popularising t he socialist crit ique of capitalism. A more Independent-minded work[())'Ce was not necessarily less religious - indeed a striking katurc of the British socialist Jllovement is the EIC! that so many of its pioneers came fl-OI1l a strongly religious background and delivered their socialist message in a language shaped by religion. But the working class or the early twentieth century was much less willing (0 ()lIow the religious or political lead given hy their employers. Britain to some extent developed a Labour sub-culture of the kind which developed llluch more [illly III (;ermany and France. 70 Besides political parties and trade unions, it incillded the co-ops and the "Vomen's Cooperative (;uild, and also Lahollr Churches and Socialist Sllnday Schools. I lowcver, by cOlllparison with, fe)r instance. (;ermany, the British labour sllb-culture was more limited in scale and less exclusive. The Lahour Churchcs (which were [;lding by 191 II) and the Socialist Sunday Schools ofkred onl' option fi)r (hose who had rejected the churches and wanted a [()rlllal alternative. But there was plcnty of scope fe)r socialists either to remain religiously nClltral or to retain links with onc or tile chllrches.
The Role of the State The third and [(HIrth of' the Elctors impinging on changes in religious pract icc betweell I H'( H and I~) 1·(, namely Ihe growing power of the state and the increaslllg influence of the towns on the cOllntryside, will he considered together, since in France the chicI' example or the latter was the increasing presence of the state
I \lK ill the coulltryside, especially alit,], I KK(). In all threc countries the later ninetecnth and early twentieth centllrics saw a decline in Ilrban/rural dirii:rcllccs, ;IS improved commllnicatlons generally, and newspapers and political organisatiolls in particlllar, rendered rural areas illcreasillgly open to urban inlltlt'llcCS. III many cases thc reslllt was that rllral religious practice declined, moving closer to urhall levels. III (;crlllany, wherc a series orexcelicnt stlldics or local Protestalltism \\"cre Ilndertaken in thc early twentieth celltllry, the general cOllclusion \\"as that all bllt the most remote villages had come Ilnder extellsi\"(' urball inl1uences, and that these were gcn(Tally associated With a decline or religious practice." The process has becn studied ill considerable detail in the rural areas illlmediately to the cast or (;iittingen, in what was the kingdom or II:lnm'tT, until its ;lIlncxation by Prussia ill I K()(). This was all arca or abm'C a\'Cr;lgc levels or religious practice, with the great majority or Ill(' pop,t1atloll receivillg communioll at least ollce ill the year 'lIl11 ahout F)'1r attending church Oil an average Sunday at the elHI of' the nilletcenth celltllry. Ilowc\Tr, the Illunher both or comillullicants and or chllrch-goers was declining, and the hard-to-please orthodox Lutheran clergy who predominated in HallO\'('r \\'Cre not imprcssed with the general ll'\'cI of' picty.

But li'o1ll the I K7()s onwards Illore spccilically urhan inlluenccs entered into their cOlllplaints, From IK7~ onwards the rrequency o['Sllnday dances was a regular theme in their reports, Froln I KK·' they were cOlllpbining about irreligious newsp;qlCrs, ;l11d in I KKK the), were noting the practice or going ['rom village to village on Sundays, seeking out I hose where dances wcre being' held.

isolat ion was the secular school. Roger TI!abault in an account 0[' his nat iw' village or Mazihes-en-( ;;'\t ine showed how this Illight COl1le about. In Mazit~res the church was still a very powcrf'ulli)rcc at midcent ury, but by t he I KK()s it was declining in"t he Elce or what Thahault descrihes as 'a new religion', the Elith in progress. The new era began ahout I K()() with Ihe inCJ'easing involvemcnt 0[' the popu lat ion in prod uet ion l()!' t he market and consequent 11' grcater access to new ideas, and it progressed rurt her in t he I K7()s wit h the polit ieisat ion of' t he village hy a st rongly ant i-clerical bourgeois landowner who sun:csslidly challenged t he aut horit y of' the seignell r, replacing the latter as 1I1ayor. But the culmination or this phase was the arrival of' a passionately republican school-teacher, who lilled the younger generation wit.h a helidin the possibility ol'a hetter lik, and who succcsslitlly warded ofT a challenge f'ro1l1 t he priest - when the lattn ref'used absolution to those parents who sent their child ren to t he secular school. most ignored the t h real. Apart I'ro1l1 republican politics, patriotism and belief in education, the new Elith in progress was also associatcd with a more rationalistic 11lentality, rellected in the practice or birth control and the declining in[]uence of' 11lagic. 7:; The state's interventions in religious matters cOllld, however, be counter-productive. I shall return to this the1l1e in the latter part or the chapter.
The End of England's Victorian Era As suggcsted earlier, intellect ual and cult lIral changes arc unlike'" to haw' been a major f;lctor in the decline 01' chllrch-going in France and (;ennan), during t he second hall' or the nineteent h ccntmy, but they Illay havc had a role in England.

A 11lodest drop in attendance at churches of'the Church or England and the major Nonconfi)l"Jllist deno1l1inations was largely compensated I()r by the growt h of' attendance in S011le more plebeian Nonconli)J'lnist deno1l1inations, which suggests that attendance Illay have been growing in this periocI in the working d'ISS. Fmm the late I KKOs to the First \:Vorld War, there was a suhstantial drop in church attcndance and a smaller drop in church

membership.71 The higgest drop or allcndance was in the middle alld upper classes. Figures fc)r LOlldon showed that although wealthier areas still had the highest level or attendance, the gap was narrowing. I n I HHG-H7. the wealt hiest dist ricts had an average rate of" attendallce Oll the census Sunday of" :\(j.:) per cent alld the poorest had all average or 20.2 per cent. By I !)02-:) t he averages were 2().:) per cent fi)r the wealthiest districts asnd I H.!i per 7c cent fill' the ]lOOl"CSI. , Anglican congregations were shrinking bstest, though the Nonconfi)]"lllists also slIrkred significant losses. while trends in Roman Catholic attendance arc less clear. The reasons fill' this decline continue to be hotly disputed by historialls alld no consensus has yet becn reached. SOllle or thc f:lctors which especially a{kcted members or the workillg class have already hecn mentioned. The decline or middle and upper class church-goillg can hest he seen as resulting rrom a comhinat lOll of iilctors. inclwlillg the intellectual and cultural. as well as the social. ;\1ll0Ilg t hcst' were the growt h or religious doubt. part Iy hccuasc of n('w sciellt ific dcveloplllents. hut more especially because of" changes in l1Ioral susceptibilities. which made l1Iany aspects or existing Christian orthodoxy harder to accept; the growing preoccupation with Ieisurc, and the associated reaction against 'puritan' taboos and restrictions; and the decline or the social paternalislll of which religious illstitlltions alld ideology had ofien heen an integral parI. Victorian social clites had rrequently gone to church as;\ social duty, lIlorc or less independently of whatcver religious convictions they had. By the carly twentieth century. the church no longer seellled so inl]lortallt to the functioning or society; landowners alI(I indust.rialists wen: less willing to accept that society and Its needs had any chillls on their tillle or money. and a less dcfi.Tcntial working class was in any case not so inclined to fi)lIow whatever lead t.heir 'masters' tried to give. The change was Ileatly sUllInwd up by an Anglican writer in I!)J I, comparing The Old Squire' with The New Squire'. The fi)rlllc!" 'does not ask whether he needs the cOlllii)rts or religion. he is sure that society needs religion, and ir society needs religion he, ;IS one or the first in the social organisation, must he there at his post', The latter lived in the country because it was a pleasant place to live. and he meant to enjo), it; it was IlO COllcerll or his whether the children went to school or their -r parents went to church.

The lIlargin was only narrow in Bavaria (excluding the Palatinate) where it was G,I pCI' cent and (j 1 pCI' cent, and in Hesse where it was DI pCI' cent and 'IHpcr C(,IIt. Somewhat more detailed ligures or Cat holic Easter comlllllllicants are available li)r I ~)~LL when t.he national average was 57 cOllllllllnicants le)r ('very 100 Catholics. Since about a qllarter or the population wen' children too YOllng to he eligible, this wOllld sllgg('SI that as lIlany as three-quarters or Catholics aged 14 and on'!' were doing their Easter duties. II' aCCllrate, this is a remarkable ligllre, The llIaxinH;1ll ligllres tcnded to be ill heavily Catholic rural regions, with intermediate 1c\'(~ls in towns and indllstrial regions, like the Rllbr, where the presence of' (;atholics and Protestants ill Elirly equai nllmbers had lelstered the development ora strollg grollp-consciollsness and all extensive Cat holic sllbcult ure. SOllie Cat holic cit.ies like Cologne had below average-ligures, and the lowest rates were leHind In
Protestant cities and industrial zones, where the Catholic COll1llHIlIity had been eroded hy high rates of' mixed marriages and where the relative weakness of' the Catholic subculture meant that Catholics were susceptible to the pressures of' a mainly socialist or Protestant environment. In cities like Cologne or Munich where a Ill~~jor part or t he bourgeoisie was Cat holic, somet hing or the sall1e working-class alienation frolll the church which was leHlI1d in IIIOSt Protestant areas had taken place, but the Catholic Church in Cologne or Munich retained a much larger working-class Ic)J]owing th;~n did the Protestant Church in, say, Hamburg or Beriin. HI ; It is impossible to say with any degree of' certainty how these generally high levels or Catholic practice in the I D20s compared with the situation lin.y or a hllndred years earlier. However, research by Jonat.han Sperber on the Rhineland and West.phalia suggests that the period between about I H50 and I HHO was a time of' rising religious practice, alier a relatively low period in t.he lirst hall' or the century. Evidence lelr this includes an increase in the proportion or wills containing bequests lelr religious purposes, a rise in the number or people taking part in pilgrimages, and l1Iore bvourablc coml1lents by priests, in their reports to their bishops, on church at tendance and observance or Cat holic moralit y. H7 The solidest evi(\cnce concerns wills. The main statistical stlldy or Catholic piety during t he period 1700-1 H40 shows t hat in t he -West phalian an;t Rhineland cities of' Cologne, Aachen and Miinst.er there was a decline in the use or religious languages in wills, and that there were also other possible signs or st'cularisation, such as a decline in the proportion or books within private libraries which were on religious subjects. HH But a comparison between two lllainly rural districts or Westphalia and the Rhineland shows a clear though unspectacular increase in the proportion orwills including religious bequests or IIsing religious language between the periods I HO I-,l~) and 1H50-72. However, Sperber's chronology has been contested by ./iirgen Henes, using cOllllllunicant statistics li'olll Mainz, as well as !l1ore i!l1I)ITssionist ic evidence li'om Col

Whell Catholics and Protestants lived in dose proximity there was a sense ordillC:Tcnce, and onen tension. winch could easily escalate into minor violence. loo In towns like Allgsbllrg. with a longstanding system or 'parity' between the Eliths.

reflected t he sense 0[' exclusion and marglllalisat ion t hat hot h Catholics and Social Democrats experienced in Imperial (;ermany - though it did nothing to bring thelll any closer together, In [~Ict the Catholic and Social Delilocratic sllb-cultures or the later nineteenth and early twentieth centuries had many important points or comlllon, in spite or their mut lIal antag'onism. The maior di[ference perhaps was that the Catholics were more succcssiid at appealing to women. while the Sonal Democrats appealed nllicil morc strongly to men. Catholics and socialists shared a strongly dualistic pen:eption or the world,lol which providcd a rationale [()r the attempt to provide specifically Catholic or Social Ikmocratic organisations to meet their mcmbers' every need: a militant style. expressed in mass rallies, Illarchcs through the streets. ,md suitably aggressive sermons or spceches: and a rich symbolism and iconography, including' a heavy usc or [lag's and banners, and a tcndency [<)1' cuits to develop aroulld their heroes, martyrs and leaders. Ill:. The leaders themselves had importallt points in COllllllon, in spite orobviollS di[krellces. \Vlwre thc Protestant pastor tended to he sct apart ['rom the mass or his parishioners hy the Elct that. he was a mCllllwr or the cducated bOllrgeoisie, Catholic priests alld socialist leaders typically Glille rrom a lowcr llliddle class or upper workillg class background. They seldolll came hum extreille poverty, bllt typically they were 10calll1en, speaking the local dialect and not too Ell' reilloved socially [i'olll their [()llowers. This certainly docs not Illean that the rebt ionship was problcm-[i'ee. Some degree or tension is inherellt in the relationship Iwtwccn clergy and laity. and the authoritariall style or leadership widel\' adopted by Catholic priests or the second hair or the nineteenth centllry was gllaranteed to hring' abollt periodic cOllrlict both with indi\'iduals and with grollps within the parish, But, as Blaschke shows. the pricst was widely regarded as the sYlllhol or the Catholic comlllllllity. and also as the acceptable EKe or alit hority - a [()]'lllidable [ig'uI'C in some ways, but onc who was trusted ill a sellSC that, i()r instance, a state orticial or a lawyer was nOL I01 ; The ways in which this potential closeness to the people was pllt into practice varied greatly. Blaschke qllotes accollnts or Bavarian peasants and Rhineland workers going to the parish priest to seek advice or cond()rt. Anderson stresses thc role ortl1(' priest as conkssor, and suggests that illtransigent preachers might be milch ll10re llnderstanding in dcaling with individual cases, She also notes examples or priests who were popular becallse or their ability to socialise with their parishioners. 1111

Ev('l' on the look-out I(H' nuanccs or I;\nguage or manner that might betray a lack or Lutheranism, she objects to her ncphew \Vole/elllar using the word 'conkss' (bl'irhil'll) because it is '(;at holic', Aunt AdellH'id is a comic portrait ora pious Lutheran aristocrat or the Illost rigid kind. But she only takes to the level or absurdity a sensit ivit y to con I'cssionally-i nlluenced di Ifen'nces t hat is COllllllon to most ortl1l' characters in Fontallc's novels.

When Adelheid's brother, Dubslav von Stechlin, is on his death-bed, he decides not to sec a doctor at all whcn he finds that the old doctOl' with whol1l he is Ellniliar is not availahle: the old man's place has be('n takcn by a yOllng .Jewish doctor, who 'smacks or Social Democracy', holds his cane in a strangc way and wcars a red tic.

In England ;\l'Ound t he middle or the nineteent h ccnt IIry t here would have been somc people, but IlOt vcry many, who rerllsed to claim an)' or these lilrInS or ident it y. And most or those wOllld have claimed some explicitly non-rcligious identity, sllch as that or Positivist, Secularist or Socialist (meaning, in the 11)40s, a lilllower or Robert Owen). In France there were certainly some who would have called themselves Positivists, Socialists or Vo\tairians, but the great majority would have identilied themselves as Catholics, exceptlill' the smallnumhers orl'rotestants and .Jews. In (;e1'l11an), it was dif'licult to disclaim any kind of' religious label. Every citizcn was regarded b), the statc as a mcmber or the religious communit), into which the), had been horn, and of'licial doculllent.s or many kinds recorded this arliliation. 'Ii'anskrs to another religious cOlllmunity had to be liJrlnally registered at the relevant government of'lice, and could be subject to state restrict ions. U nt il the 1H70s It,ll' states allowed lilr t he possibility or a person having no religion at all. When in 11)7;) the option or being wit hout relio'ious al'iiliation (I!olIfi~ssi()l/sI()s) became available in Prush , sia, that choice had to be liJrlnall), registered.The second hall' or the nineteenth ccntury saw two important developments. The lirst was t he emergence or a signilicant minorit), or those whose identIty was cmphatically secular, and who had consciously rejected their Catholic, Protestant or .Jewish inheritance. The second was the increasing importance or nationalism and or membership or political parties as shapers or identity. These two develop111ents to S0111e extent overlapped, since lllcnlhership orthc various socialist parties olien conkrred a strong sense or identity and, at least in Germany and France, and to a lesser extent in England, this identity tended to be strongly secular. Membership ol'the English Secular Socicties, or oCthe Freethought organisations In France and (;cr111any, could also provide the basis lilr a nell' idcntity, which was c111phasised by the introduction or secular rites or passage. These new secular identities developed furthest in France, and by the later nineteenth ccntury the divide bet ween (:at holic and 1(1 ii' was t he deepest in French socict y, eclipsing in 1110St rcgions or the cOllntry older divisions such as <)

Each conllllllnity had its ntltur,t1 herocs, and an awareness or its collective achievements. Dirkrenccs in ethos, encompassing dif'/<'Tcnt political loyalties or moral valucs also playcd a role.:; (:hristcl Kiihle-Ilczingcr has studied rclations hetween Protestants and (:atilolics in Wi'lrllcmllCrg rrom I HO:l, when the homogeneollsly Llltheran state first acqUired a nllmtTOIlS Catholic population, lip to the I !)70s.

The I'rotest;lIlt Church was still seen by thclll as little more than an adjunct or the statc - it could IH.'Vcr inspire thc kind of'af'/<.:ction which they kit f()r their 'Mother' Church. Protestantism was also eqllated with sccubrisation and moral decline, and Protestants wcrc accuscd or IllolH)polising positions or power <[lid usillg thcm to oppress Catholics.'
Schools clearly had an important role, sincc so ll111ch nillctcellthc('ntury schooling was org;lIlised Oil a denonlillational basis, and the inclllcat ion of' conksslollal cOllsciollslless was oncn one or the school's major objcctives.

C'xtraordillary resentment and hitt('rJlcss with which anti-clerical militallts regarded the church thus arose partly li'om a sense or the effrontcry or the clergy the\' arc doomed, so why won't they admit it? Bllt it also arose li'OIlI a realistic appraisal or the great influence which Catholicislll still had. The ten thousand pilgrillls who were to he hlown lip with the chllrch were one illustration or this. No other institutioll or organisation could bring together sllch hllge crowds inclllding hot h wOl1len and men, yOllng and old, and drawn rrom all social classes. The cult or the Sacred lIeart evoked the tendcl'lless and COlli passion Or./CSIIS, and also his vllinerahility.

In its cOlllhinat ion or splendollr alld mystery, the hasilica had an elllotional pow(']' that it shared With lIIan), other Catholic churcheshringing a link with the distant past, access to the di\'ine, and a bond with hundreds of kllow-worshlppers,IN In England the most signilicant cleavage in the electorate was that betweC'n Anglican and Nonconf()rmist.

Bllt, as elsewhere in Ellmpc, socialism grew Ollt or liheralism, and inherited important aspects orils cultural baggage. In France the Socialists inherited and maintained with varying degrees or cnthusiasm t.he anti-clerical traditions or Frcnch republicanism, and in Britain, the Independent Labour Party was strongly in{luenced by the background orProtestant Dissent li'om which so man)' or its members had come. In Britain sOl1le problems amse fi'om the f;tct that in appealing to the various religious minorities the Liberals brought together groups which were actually vcry different and in some repects scarcely compatihle, including Roman Catholics alld Secularists, as well as Protestant Disscnters.":! Similarly ill France the republican cause brought together atheists, deists, and devout Protestants and ./ews, But since all agreed on hal1lmcring the Catholics, thc !;lCt that thcy did so frolll very din(~rent standpoints seldolll caused major pmhkms, In any case It olien helped that French anti-clericals were inclined to philo-Protestantislll,c,:1 Religious ident it ies were llIost intcllse and least pmblelllat ic wherc thcy were intertwined with ethnicity, as they were f(lI' Irish Catholics, East European./ews or Welsh Nonconf()rmists.

Religion and Nationalism The growing importance orllatiollalisln and imperialism in the later nineteenth and early twcntieth century also potclltially diminished t he importance' or religious or conressional bctors: llat ionalism could providc a hridge across the variolls conlt'ssional divides, uniting heliever and unill'licvcr, (:atholic and Protestant: equally, Ii)r the most. I('rvcnt natiollalists, there was a tendency I(lr nationalism to take Oil thc character or a nl'W Elith, replacing oldn I(ll'llls. The latter tendellcy developed rurthest in (;erlnan)", where some nationalists, regarding Christianity ,IS an cmharrassment andJudaism as all abomination, harked hack to the old 'Ii..'utonic gods. Anothcr currcnt or thOllght drew UpOll racialist idcas to give a 'scicll t i lic' hasis t () t he com pet it ion bet wcen peoples, and reject eel ( :h rist i,ll1 it\' a lid Judaism as Iacklllg all)' such scicnt i lic IiHlndat iOll. "s
However, these tendencies should not he overstated. Many I()rlllS or Ilat ionalism contained a st l'Ong religious ingredient, and rival versions or nationalism were orten an aspect or religious conflict. The association Iwtwccn Protestantism and lirst English, and later Brit ish. nat ional ident it y was or very long stand ing. The Rel(Jrlllation, the Spanish ;\rmada, the (;lorious Revolution, the wars ,lgainst Louis XIVand Napoleon were all central events III a national history which was recognised hy Anglican and Dissenter alike, and in which the central thcme was the hattlc I()]' English Protestant rreedom against I()rcign Catholic despotism admittedly, by the time or Napocoll, France had come to he associated in English Protestant minds even more with irreligion than with Catholicism. But 11 was ,I central tenet ornillcteenth-century English Protestantism that Catholicism and irreligion tended to go toge! her as dilfercnt sides or the samc coin, and t hat hot h wcre associat.ed wit h despot ism, wh ik Protestantism \\"ent together hoth with li-cedOln and with genuine piety. With the union or England and Scotland in 1707 and then or Britain and Ireland in IXOI, religion was clearly a centrall;lctor both in t he acceptance or the linion hy most Scots, \'Velsh and Protestant Irish, and in its rejection hy most Catholic Irish.'i~) Five dclinit ions or Brit ish nat ional ident it y occu r cont inllallv throughout the nineteenth century and into the twcntieth: Britain was Christian, Protestant, prosperous, civilised and rree. or course the ImpOl·tance attached to Ihe various points varied over time and varied as Iwtwcen nlcmiJers or dilferent political parties, social classes or religious cOlnl111111ities. Thus in IX[J7, the leader or Manchcster's Rcl(lrlll Synagoguc, in declaring his conviction that the British nation had a 'Divine mission to carry civilii'.ation, liherty and prosperity to the uttermost hounds or the earth', naturally omitted rererence to Christianity.fio But the most striking point is how lllany people hought the whole package, and how many saw these lin' characteristics as inter-related, with Protestantism acting as the linchpin. Britain was more truly Christian than, I()r instance, FralIn' or Italy, the later Bishop or Durham, IlcllSlcy Henson, claimed in a dehate at the (:hurch Congress in IX~)X. TillS was hecause the liTe and rational Protestant Elith was an:eptahlc to the modern agc, whereas the 'extrcme and perverted sacerdotalism or the ROlllan Catholic Church' had led to 'the great and ever waxing alienation rrolll the Church or the best conscience and intellect or the Latin races' That BrItain also owed her c1vilisat ion, rreedOlll and prosperity to her Protestantism was st rongly ilnplied by .I, E.

Tess Ihcn slood creel wilh the inEulI on her arlll heside Ihe basin, the l1ext sister held the Prayer-Book open Iwli)l'C her, as the clerk at chllrch held it 1x-li)lT the parson: and thus the g-irl set ahout baplizing- Ihe child.,.,

She sprinkled the water and Ihere was silence. 'Say "Amel1", children.' The lilly voices piped in obedient response 'Amen!' Tess Dllrbcylicld, a young- Dorset Elrlll-workn has g-ivcn hirth to an illeO"itim<1tc' child. 'I~he child was vcry, frail, and within a week or birth he is dving-. When she realises thaI Ihere is no hope, 'I<:ss is plung-cd inlo' fil;,tlwr despair hy Ihe realisation that he has not been ~

She wants to send fi)r the parson, but her EIther, humiliated by the shame that 'Il..~ss has brought on the household, will have none of it, and when t he parson cloes call. he refuses hllH ent ry. As Tess lies in hed that nig-ht she is terri lied by t.he thoug-ht that her baby will g-o to hell.

Like all villag-e g-irls she was well g-rounded in the Holy Scriptures, alld had dutirully studied the histories of Aholah and Aholihah, and knew the inkrellces to be drawn thercfi'om', But she is determined to save her beloved child li'om such a 1;lte.

Rites of Passage The interpenetration or Christianity and the poplliar culture of' nineteent.h-century Europe was seen nowhere more vividly t.han in Ihe hold which the Christian rites of passag-e exercised on the imaginations or so many people. And, in case Hanly's accounl or 'kss's fears and the way she resolved them mig-ht seem EmcifuL it is wOl'lh noting- the words of a Berlin clerg-yman writing- in Il'\l'\() of his experiences in an impoverished working--dass parish. 'In SUlllnlt'r, the numher or emergency baplisms is brg-e. Death knocks on the door of culpable neg-lig-ence and causes terror. Post-hasle they selld lill' Ihe c!crg-yman. lie musl quickly - hut immediately - make g-ood what laziness has spoiled. They demand vehemenlly that, in spite of olher urgent busll1ess, the emergency baptism should be carried out at once',:.!

In the earlier part orthe century, the intense supernaturalism or much popular culturc provided COlllInon ground with at least the lllore popular hranches or contenlporary religion. such as Methodism; on the other hand. rccreation was one or the areas or most hitter dispute.

H7 AfitT every sport that fdl into one 01' other or these categories had been eliminated, there was not I1lIl(:h lef't. Recreat ion was thus a major site f()]" conflict bet ween religious groups and a signilicant section of'the male population, including many members both or the working' class and the aristocracy. The spread or cricket in the second hall' or the nineteenth century was onc example or a more general spread of' 'rational' I()nns or recreation, which did not normally involve gambling, were not necessarily sited at public houses. did not involve cruelty to animals, and the rules orwhich minimised or strictly regulated body-contact between the players. Beside cricket. the most important examples were I()()tball, rugby, athletics. cycling and boxing. though numerous other I()rllls or sport emerg'cd in t heir modern f()]'m ahout this t Imc, Boxing at first sight seems t he odd man out. bccause violence was or its very essence.

It would be Elr more illulllinating, she suggests, to see it as a f()nll or religion in its own right, and to lilCllS on what it did Include, Major aspects, she suggests, were the 'intermingling or f(llk and orthodox religious idiollls', including both extensivc usc or charllls, f()lk rellledies and spells, and widespread practice or certain church-based ritnals; identilication wilh local religious huildings and personnel; prayer and hymn-sing'ing; and belier in 'practical Christianiti.~I~ j\ vcry similar picturc elllcrges rrom Richard Sykes's rccent study or the Black Country betwecn 1~)I,1 and 1~)(i!J, Sykes took more account than Williams or denominational distinctions (mainly bet wcell Anglicalls and Met hodists) and dist inct ions bet ween those working-class people (relatively IlIlmeHHIS in the Black Country) who contillll<,:d to attend church as adults, and those who largely gave up when they leli Sunday School. But he concluded
that, at least until the 1D!JOs and 19()Os these distinctions were not reflected in widely different beliefs about. the supcrnatllral. Nonchurch-gocrs prayed, sang hymns, wert' churched, insisted on their children heing christened, and regarded Ilelghbourly help as a religious duty.~J:\ In a scene reminiscent or Yorkshire in the I H:Hls, onc or Sykes's inf()J'Jl1ants descrihed the women in Dudley tailoring lilctorics in the I ~r)()s and I ~)40s singing hymns as they workcd. Thc hymns were sometimes mixed with contemporary popular Elvourites - 'But a lot or the timc it used to be mostly hymns because e\'eryhody secmed 10 know more hYlllns.'~ll Both churchgocrs and non-dllln:h-goers carried lucky charms, consulted l(lrtune-tellers and believed in ghosts. Emphasising that the overwhelllling majority or working-class childrcn attended Sunday School at least up to the I ~r)()s, and that church-gocrs and nonchurch-goers alike had access to an orally transmitted culture or f(llktales and 'superstitions', he highlighted the large areas or common belicls and practices shared hy most working-class Ellnilies regardless or their religious aniliation or non-aniliatioll.~F'
Conclusion \;Vhile Williams identilies certain areas or change during the pcriod I HHO-I ~n~), she suggests that these were 'complex and amorphous and cannot simply be identified with "decline" '.% She argues that the hig'gcst changes have COIllC since t he Second World War. Sykes, who cxplored t he extent and causes or t his decline mOlT rully, reached the sanle conclusiOlI.~17 linl(lrtunately, IlO similarly detailed studies havc I)('('n undertaken in othcr parts or western Europe f()J' the period. But the weight or the availahle evidence suggests lhat Willialns is right to put the lIIain stress on continuity, cven though she may hc overstating her case. She elllphasises the role OrWOIlICn in passing on the various I(mns or popular helieI', both 'f(lll;,' and 'church-related' to lhe next gelleration, and the l;lct that man)' men, wit hout contest ing such helids regarded t hem as helonging to the i(.'lIIale spl1<.'re. QH 'livo-thirds orher interviewecs were women, which probahly accentuates the hias orher evidence towards the clements or continuity. Sources or change would seem to include the promot ion or rat ionalisnl and the nllt or science hot h hI' schools and by radical political parties; the availability or technological solutions to problems previously add ressed through religion or magic; and the
declining- authority of' the c1crg-y, tog-ether with diminishing- kno\\,lerlg-c or Christian doctrines, rit.uals and literature. Yet in all these cases, chang-e came only vcry g-radually, and in particular t.he inllucncc of' rationalist modes or thinking- must not be cxag-g-erat.cd. Doctors may have cOllle to be llIuch llIore widely used, but. the Illllllber or pilg-rilllag-es to Lourdes has also increased.

A substantiallllinority or Nonconlilrmist ministers, and a smaller minority or Anglican clergy, had opposed the warY fi While this opposition was primarily due to douhts hoth ahout the justicc or the British causc and ahout the treatment orArrikaner civilians by the British li)}'(:cs, it also rdlected a more generalised critique or militarism and orthe role orlHlsiness interests in profiting rrom war. ThiS critique was li'equcntly heard in the Nonconf(lnnist chapels, and sOl1letimes extended to a more gcneralised p,\cilism, usually justilied by rcf(TCnCe to a mixturc or the New 'I(~stamcnt and radical or socialist politics.:!! It may be that long years or hearing sermons about peace had left man)' people with r,lthcr llIixed kclings ahout the role or the churches in wartillle. They may themselves have relt that they had a duty to light; yet at the same time they saw the incongrllity in a Christian minister justii)'ing killing. This certainly was the position orthc poet Wilfi-ed Owen:!H and or the Liheral politicllI Charles Masterman, who was British Director or Propaganda, yet Idt that the only two Christ.ian leaders or iJodies t.o cnICrgc wit h credit li'OIl! t he war were t he Pope and the Sneiet y or Friends. ~~l In Britain there was a small, hilt nonetheless vocal, opposition to the war, which had two llIajor concentrations or sllpport in the Independel1t LaiJollr Part), and the Society or Friends, as well as more scattered support among liberal intellectuals, socialists generally, and members or non-pacilist churches.:;!)

Bllt in France, t here were also lllallY reports or conversions or unbelievers at the {i·ont.

As Becker writes: remain at the rront, to live in the middle ordeath, the soldiers had need ormultiplc means or assurance.

Thus British soldiers WtTe said to pray befe)]T battlc and to give thanks to Cod afterwards, and French soldiers wOllld write to their parish priest asking (i)]' his prayers. English soldiers 'who never received communion at other times wOllld do so while at the rrolll. - a chaplain cOlllmentcd: 'In SOllle it means everything that we would wish it to lllean; in others it is indllbitably a superstitious [(?cling.

Conclusion The upsurge orreligiolls activity in the early part ortlle war led one French observer to comment that 'the dechristianisation or the peasant soul, even in those villages where the church seelllS to be abandoned, is extremely superficial'.'~ The sallle kind or COnllll('nt could also be made or(;erman), or oran overwhelmingly urbanised England. By 1914 a signi[icallt minority or the populatioll had become converts to a new world-view, h,lsed most commonly on sclcntislll. sOClalislll. or a cOlllhination or the two. But [i)r the milch larger I1lllllber or those whose Iwlids were Illore fluid and eclectic, Christianity generally relllained a significant influcncc on their understanding or the world, and Olle that came to the [illT in tillles or crisis.

As regards the various dilllensions o['seculansatlon discussed earlier, th(~ response to the outbreak or war suggests that religion or various kinds remained deeply embedded ill poplliar culture. lllOSt especially in a Catholic environment. as in France or Bavaria, where processions, pilgrimages.

I (" one 0(" these storics is to be given pride of' place it should be not secularisation, but pluralism. One or the Illost sigllificant turning-points in Europe's religious history was the Illtroductioll or a degree or toleration li'ol1! thc later seventcenth century onwards. As the religious controls werc g-radually lilted, an increasingly wide rangc or possibilities opened up, including- deism, scepticism and atheism, as well as many alternative I(mns or Christial1lty and Judaism. In the eig-htecnth celltury, revealed religion EKed powerful intcllcctllal challcnges. But the secularisation of society only hecame a realistic possihility li'om the 17~)Os onwards, as liberal and radical polit ical movements mobilised wide sect ions or the population to attack the (1II{'/1'1I lip;III1!'.

In the second hall' of the ccntury, west European societies were the scencs or fierce ideological competition. It was not simply a matter or 'religiOUS' versus 'secular', but ofnval {(lUllS orrclig-ion and rival li)rms or secularity, each battling on several rronts. There were several salicnt aspects or this plllralism. In the first place, both radical politics and thc Cllit of science had a very po\\'erhd attraction, at least f<)r certain sections or till' poplliation.
