This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mediæval England From the English Settlement to the Reformation The preference now generally shown for the plan of teaching History in periods is proof of a desire to Study the subject systematically and thoroughly. This series of Histories is intended to facilitate and encourage that method. The Periods of English History adopted are those of the Oxford and Cambridge Local Examinations, and of other schemes of the same kind, namely: - I. Medieval England, from the English Settlement to the Dawn of the Reformation: 449-1509. II. England of the Reformation and the Revolution: 1509-1688. III. Modern England and Great Britain, from the Revolution to the last Reform Acts: 1688-1885. The prominent feature in the plan of the series is the importance attached to the development of the Constitution. Thus, the First Volume deals with Feudal Monarchy (Supremacy of the Crown), the Second with Absolute Monarchy (The Crown versus the Parliament), the Third with Limited Monarchy (Supremacy of the Parliament). The same principle is worked out in detail in each volume. At the close of each reign there is a summary of the constitutional changes effected in the course of it, with an indication of its general tendency from a constitutional point of view ; while in important reigns - such as those of Edward I. and Edward III. - the leading statutes are analysed. A very full Summary of constitutional points is given at the close of the volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

  • Author : Arthur Geoffrey Dickens
  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 1991
  • ISBN : 9780271007984
  • Pages : 461 pages

Download or read book The English Reformation written by Arthur Geoffrey Dickens and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a new edition of the classic study of the religious changes that transformed England in the sixteenth century. Henry VIII officially brought the Protestant Reformation to England in the 1530s when he severed the English Church from the Papacy. But the seeds of the movement, according to A.G.Dickens, were planted much earlier. The English Reformation, first published in 1964, follows the movement from its late medieval origins through the settlement of Elizabeth I in 1559 and the rise of Puritanism.

Book The English Reformation Revised

Download or read book The English Reformation Revised written by Christopher Haigh and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1987-05-29 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty years ago, historians thought they understood the Reformation in England. Professor A. G. Dickens's elegant The English Reformation was then new, and highly influential: it seemed to show how national policy and developing reformist allegiance interacted to produce an acceptable and successful Protestant Reformation. But, since then, the evidence of the statute book, of Protestant propagandists and of heresy trials has come to seem less convincing, Neglected documents, especially the records of diocesan administration and parish life, have been explored, new questions have been asked - and many of the answers have been surprising. Some of the old certainties have been demolished, and many of the assumptions of the old interpretation of the Reformation have been undermined, in a wide-ranging process of revision. But the fruits of the new 'revisionism' are still buried in technical academic journals, difficult for students and teachers to find and to use. There is no up-to-date textbook, no comprehensive new survey, to challenge the orthodoxies enshrined in older works. This volume seeks to fulfill two crucial needs for students of Tudor England. First, it brings together some of the most readable of the recent innovative essays and articles into a single book. Second, it seeks to show how a new 'revisionist' interpretation of the English Reformation can be constructed, and examines its strengths and weaknesses. In short, it is an alternative to a new textbook survey - until someone has time (and courage) to write one. The new Introduction sets out the framework for a new understanding of the Reformation, and shows how already published work can be fitted into it. The nine essays (one printed here for the first time) provide detailed studies of particular problems in Reformation history, and general surveys of the progress of religious change. The new Conclusion tries to plug some of the remaining gaps, and suggests how the Reformation came to divide the English nation. It is a deliberately controversial collection, to be used alongside existing textbooks and to promote rethinking and debate.

Book The Later Reformation in England 1547 1603

Download or read book The Later Reformation in England 1547 1603 written by Diarmaid MacCulloch and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an introduction to the latest research on the English Reformation from Edward VI's accession to the death of Elizabeth I. It highlights the difference between the official Reformation - what those in power wanted to happen - and the actual impact on clergy and people throughout the nation, including those Catholics and Protestants whom the official Elizabethan settlement ultimately failed to satisfy or include. It describes the growth of barriers between a world of literate, articulate religion and patterns of illiterate belief and magical practice; it assesses the ambiguities, the failures and the achievements of late Tudor religious structures.

Download or read book Heretics and Believers written by Peter Marshall and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sumptuously written people’s history and a major retelling and reinterpretation of the story of the English Reformation Centuries on, what the Reformation was and what it accomplished remain deeply contentious. Peter Marshall’s sweeping new history—the first major overview for general readers in a generation—argues that sixteenth-century England was a society neither desperate for nor allergic to change, but one open to ideas of “reform” in various competing guises. King Henry VIII wanted an orderly, uniform Reformation, but his actions opened a Pandora’s Box from which pluralism and diversity flowed and rooted themselves in English life. With sensitivity to individual experience as well as masterfully synthesizing historical and institutional developments, Marshall frames the perceptions and actions of people great and small, from monarchs and bishops to ordinary families and ecclesiastics, against a backdrop of profound change that altered the meanings of “religion” itself. This engaging history reveals what was really at stake in the overthrow of Catholic culture and the reshaping of the English Church.
