"Parish Priests and Their People in the Middle Ages in England" by Edward Lewes Cutts is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the relationship between parish priests and their congregations during the Medieval period, from the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons to the Reformation. It delves into topics ranging from the organization of the Church to the lives and roles of the clergy and laity, shedding light on their customs and practices in a time of significant religious transition. The opening of the book sets the stage by describing the primitive state of England at the time of the Anglo-Saxon settlement, detailing the landscape that was largely uncultivated with sparse beginnings of civilization. Cutts introduces the heathen practices of the time, explaining how the arrival of Christianity began to reshape societal structures through the conversion of kings and the establishment of parochial organization. The chapter offers a glimpse into the social and religious customs of the Anglo-Saxon people, illustrating the significant shifts in belief and practice that would follow as the new faith took root in the culture.
