Theology on Tap

At long last, Theology on Tap returns!

On Wednesday, April 26th, Dr. Brent S. Sirota will speak to Theology on Tap on the founding of the Church of the Advent, its inspiration in the scene of American Romanticism, and how the parish contributed to the development of a distinctly American form of Anglo-Catholicism.

Dr. Sirota is associate professor and the Director of Graduate Programs in the Department of History at North Carolina State University. He specializes in the religious and political history of Great Britain and the wider British world in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. He received an MA in Religious Studies in 2001 and a PhD in History in 2007, both from the University of Chicago. Dr. Sirota has written a number of articles and book chapters on the history and politics of the Church of England in the decades before and after the Glorious Revolution of 1688-1689. His first book, The Christian Monitors: The Church of England and the Age of Benevolence, 1680-1730 was published by Yale University Press in 2014. It was awarded the John Ben Snow Prize by the North American Conference on British Studies. In 2019, The Hanoverian Succession in Great Britain and its Empire, a collection of essays he co-edited with Allan I. Macinnes, was published by Boydell Press.
