Focusing on the movement founded by George Jacob Holyoake, this book presents a fresh perspective on secularization in the nineteenth century. It positions Holyoake's Secularism as a pivotal moment in modernity, challenging traditional views of the secularization thesis. The narrative also explores various secular trends of the era, including Carlyle's 'natural supernaturalism', Carlile's anti-theist science, Lyell's geological principles, Newman's naturalized religion, and Eliot's contributions to secular thought.
