Mr. A.V. Judges: Life and Labour in England from Elizabeth to Anne-V, The Puritan Attitude to Life and the Economic Background

on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

The relationship of 'morals' and 'business in the Puritan attitude to life' is, in effect, the basis of Mr. Judges' talk tonight. The Mediaeval Church had tried to impose upon the people a code of commercial morality based upon a certain interpretation of the Scriptures and the Christian Fathers and upon the economic relationship of man to man as it then existed. But the character of society slowly altered, and there grew up a new morality, exalting, among other things, the dignity of business effort.
