As Charles III is crowned King of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, and Defender of the Faith, this timely book explores the Christian symbolism of the coronation and the unique significance of the Christian monarchy in the history of the British Isles.
God Save the King delves into the theme of sacred kingship, its origins in primal religion, its central role in both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible, and its representation in modern popular culture. The book also analyzes the particular relationship between sovereign and church in the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, the monarchs' traditional roles as protector of Protestantism and Defender of the Faith, and how these are being reinterpreted in the context of a multi-faith and multi-cultural Britain.
With the inclusion of fascinating details of sacred engagements in the annual royal calendar and little-known rituals, this book represents a celebration and exploration of sacred monarchy as it has been understood and practiced over the centuries and its continuing relevance today. This is an indispensable and essential guide to the history, structure, and symbolism of the coronation service, including lively anecdotes about things that have gone wrong in past ceremonies. It will provide the perfect companion for all who wish to understand the significance and symbolism of what will happen on 6 May.
