Scholars and other cultural commentators have often debated the extent and meaning of secular- ization in modern societies. Katerberg takes a different approach by emphasizing that people’s religious commitments have become one of many competing identity choices in consumer cultures. .d evre He describes the life and work of five leaders in the Anglican se Church in Canada and the Episcopal Church in the United States who r sth came of age in the late nineteenth century and served their religious g ir llA communities until the mid-twentieth century. As clergy and educa- .sse tors they hoped to root the faith of modern Anglicans/Episcopalians rP ytisre itnit yp afostr ttrhaed iptiroensesn tto apnrdo vtihdee fau ctuorme.p Telhlienirg astpteirmitputasl ptou raprtoicseu laanted aid heins-- vinU torical basis for Anglican unity and Christian ecumenism often had s'ne contradictory and even sectarian results. e u Q Modernity and the Dilemma of North American Anglican Identities, -lliG 1880–1950 offers historians and scholars of religion and culture in cM .1 North America a comparative perspective and a new way to under- 0 02 stand how a previous generation looked to the past to address the di- © th lemmas of an uncertain present and future. g iryp o C william h. katerberg is associate professor of history at Calvin College, Grand Rapids, Michigan Katerberg, W..
