In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, a new-found love of spontaneity transformed Christian worship and revolutionised the Enlightenment's 'culture of sensibility'. This book tells the story of how and why spontaneity came to be so revered. It shows that the rise of spontaneity was intimately connected to the forces of commerce and science.
