Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The text (in verse) appears to come from the mouths of the bishops, as "Cheap-Jacks" when selling goods, with references to "Doctor Story": "Our Bishops should change caps with Doctor Story". It also refers to the Lord "Keeper" Finch, "Wren" Bishop of Ely, vestments, caps, beads, a crucifix, lawn sleeves, the archbishop's silk gown, crosier, mitres, caps "rotund and square", embroidered rochets etc.; likewise to altars, crosses, "Hymnes", the Host, "dum Priests", singing boys, "antick Cringers", High Altars, mass books, "bells baptized"; then to "the Cathedra, once St. Peters Chaire": "The candid Serplesse and the Wedding Ringes / Pictures for Bibles and such pretty thinges / Heres the late Canons! and the new found Oath / To sell Et cetera I am very loath / You formerly have heard by true Relation / These were the toyes wee made i' th' Convocation / Oath ex Officio, here if you will buy / Or High Commission, take it presently / Here's Ember weekes with their chapt Jack-a-Lent / To help you at a pinch when all is spent / Here's Holy Dayes to sport the time away / Or Booke of Pastimes for the Sabbath Day / Heres Deanes and Prebends, and the filthy Nest / Of Pursevants, Promoters, and the rest / Chancelours, Officialls, Surrogates, and all / The lofty Courtiers of Commission Hall / Come Clergy Chapmen, to your Hierarchie / Heers exc'lent Ware, as good as ere you see / Jure Divino, that's become our Doome / Wee'l sel't for Wharfage to the Court of Room / Burialls and Churchings, we have wondrous store / Upon my word, they all come from the Whore / Then next to him a fiery fat guts fell / Brought six and twenty Bishopricks to sell". Bishop after bishop offers the like articles, including candles that would "scare the Devill". A messenger runs through the crowd, and shouts to the bishops to make haste for Rome, because the House of Commons had voted them "down" and the hangman was coming.

Download or read book Shadow and Substance written by Jay Zysk and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2017-09-30 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shadow and Substance is the first book to present a sustained examination of the relationship between Eucharistic controversy and English drama across the Reformation divide. In this compelling interdisciplinary study, Jay Zysk contends that the Eucharist is not just a devotional object or doctrinal crux, it also shapes a way of thinking about physical embodiment and textual interpretation in theological and dramatic contexts. Regardless of one’s specific religious identity, to speak of the Eucharist during that time was to speak of dynamic interactions between body and sign. In crossing periodic boundaries and revising familiar historical narratives, Shadow and Substance challenges the idea that the Protestant Reformation brings about a decisive shift from the flesh to the word, the theological to the poetic, and the sacred to the secular. The book also adds to studies of English drama and Reformation history by providing an account of how Eucharistic discourse informs understandings of semiotic representation in broader cultural domains. This bold study offers fresh, imaginative readings of theology, sermons, devotional books, and dramatic texts from a range of historical, literary, and religious perspectives. Each of the book’s chapters creates a dialogue between different strands of Eucharistic theology and different varieties of English drama. Spanning England’s long reformation, these plays—some religious in subject matter, others far more secular—reimagine semiotic struggles that stem from the controversies over Christ’s body at a time when these very concepts were undergoing significant rethinking in both religious and literary contexts. Shadow and Substance will have a wide appeal, especially to those interested in medieval and early modern drama and performance, literary theory, Reformation history, and literature and religion.
