Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholics and Treason takes the narratives generated by the contemporary law of treason as it applied to Roman Catholics, during and after the Reformation of the Church in the sixteenth century, and uses them to explore the Catholic community's writing of its own history. Prosecutions of Catholics under the existing law and via new legislation produced a great deal of documentation which tells us much about contemporary politics that we could not garner from any other source. The intention here is to locate the narratives of persecution inside the context of the 'mainstream' history of the period from which, for the most part, they have been routinely excluded but out of which they partly emerged. In that respect, this is the history of the post-Reformation Church and State with the politics (of violence) put back. This volume takes as its starting point the magnum opus of Bishop Richard Challoner, his Memoirs of Missionary Priests, and it works backwards from that book into the period that Challoner describes. Historian Michael Questier seeks to reassemble as far as possible the historical jigsaw puzzle on which Challoner laboured but which he could not complete, thinking about the implications for our view of the post-Reformation and of the way in which Challoner and others described the Catholic experience of in/tolerance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Draws from the practices of the first three centuries of the Catholic Church to provide a plan to restore the sacraments and governance of the Church to lay people's hands. [Marren] contends that the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church have disqualified themselves as leaders of the Church by their total lack of communication with the laity, their outrages against children, their failure to admit guilt or do penance for those crimes, and their arrogance in electing themselves to the posts they hold without consulting the laity. Their writ has expired. Instead of elections, which tend to divide people into warring camps, this book recommends consensus decision making, which draws on ancient Christian tradition to discern the Church's leaders. What's in this book? Church history and theology from a lay viewpoint; the first practical handbook for lay reform of the Church; a return to early Church custom before priesthood began; mass and the sacraments restored to lay celebrations; lay people returned to full membership in the Church; the groundwork laid for the popular election of bishops; the mass made widely available in the Third World; women brought to the table now as mass presiders; celibacy eliminated as a requirement for mass presiders; Vatican II's promises fulfilled for the people of God; for lay people, a long-sought control over hierarchy; [and] an indispensable "toolkit" for committed Catholics"--

CHAPTER X Letters of John Colville--James intrigues with the Catholic Powers--The " Wisbech Stirs'"--Recriminations against the Jesuit faction--The murder plot of Squire and Rolls--Father Walpole's connection with it--The desire of the Archduke for peace with England--Successes of the Irish rebels--Discontent of Essex--His government in Ireland--The march through Munster--His parley with Tyrone--His disobedience and return to England--His arrest. The jangling policies and factions in Elizabeth's court, and the threatening state of affairs in Ireland in the summer and autumn of 1598, brought additional hopes and energy to the two schools of Catholics, who, in their different ways, were striving to undo the work of the Reformation on the death of the Queen. John Colville1 was writing almost weekly alarming letters from his retreat in France to Essex, telling of the coming and going of Papist envoys to James. Robert Bruce, the ex-Spanish agent, was in Scotland, with George Ker, Father Gordon the Jesuit, and a number of French Catholics of the Guise faction, who, according to the reports furnished by Colville, were arranging for armed aid to be sent to James to establish him as Catholic King of England. There is no doubt that James was now, as ever, quite ready to coquet with the Catholic party, and that he was, as we have seen, in close sympathetic correspondence with Tyrone; but the movements of the Catholics towards him at this juncture--with the exception of the embassy from the Archduke, of which the real object is revealed in the consulta quoted in the last chapter--may be confidently traced to the French and Italian, or anti-Spanish, influence, which saw in his conversion and succession the only safeguard against the Spanish...

Download or read book Faith and Treason written by Antonia Fraser and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In England, November 5 is Guy Fawkes Day, when fireworks displays commemorate the shocking moment in 1605 when government authorities uncovered a secret plan to blow up the House of Parliament--and King James I along with it. A group of English Catholics, seeking to unseat the king and reintroduce Catholicism as the state religion, daringly placed thirty-six barrels of gunpowder in a cellar under the Palace of Westminster. Their aim was to ignite the gunpowder at the opening of the Parliamentary session. Though the charismatic Catholic, Robert Catesby, was the group's leader, it was the devout Guy Fawkes who emerged as its most famous member, as he was the one who was captured and who revealed under torture the names of his fellow plotters. In the aftermath of their arrests, conditions grew worse for English Catholics, as legal penalties against them were stiffened and public sentiment became rabidly intolerant. In a narrative that reads like a gripping detective story, Antonia Fraser has untangled the web of religion, politics, and personalities that surrounded that fateful night of November 5. And, in examining the lengths to which individuals will go for their faith, she finds in this long-ago event a reflection of the religion-inspired terrorism that has produced gunpowder plots of our own time.
