Description

This text is part of a three-volume set which aims to provide the most complete and scholarly study of the Reformation to date. Based on original sources and specialized secondary literature, it is intended to give a detailed and balanced assessment of the era. This concluding volume considers the re-emergence of Protestantism in Elizabeth I's reign, focusing on the repressive penal acts and regulations of 1559 and the fate of those of both religious persuasions who refused to conform. The author describes the fortunes of "The Second Conversion of England" throughout the monarch's 45-year reign, and analyzes the relative success of those who sought to resist the systematic repression of Catholicism in Britain. This persecution reveals the true nature of the "new freedom of conscience". Volume I covers the period up to the schism under Henry VIII and the heresy of the Royal Supremacy. It examines the domestic and foreign policy problems endemic in England in 1517 and considers the numerous individual revolutions transforming daily life. Volume II describes the turbulent history of the Church of England as reorganized by Henry VIII, and analyzes the impact that this had on both government and the nation. It examines the reigns of Edward VI and Mary I, and offers a critique of the "Book of Martyrs".
