WHAT DOES NONCONFORMISM MEAN IN ENGLISH?

nonconformism

Nonconformist

Nonconformist was a term used in England and Wales after the Act of Uniformity 1662 to refer to a Protestant Christian who did not "conform" to the governance and usages of the established Church of England. English Dissenters who violated the Act of Uniformity 1559 may retrospectively be considered Nonconformists, typically by practising or advocating radical, sometimes separatist, dissent with respect to the established state church. By the late 19th-century the term included Reformed Christians, Baptists and Methodists, among other groups. Historically, Nonconformists were restricted from many spheres of public life.
