The Revolt of the Netherlands has long been familiar to
English-speaking readers, but the Reformation there has remained
largely a closed book. The Reformation in the Low Countries
developed along very different lines from German Lutheranism. While
the decentralised character of political authority ensured the
survival of religious dissent, a prolonged persecution of heresy
postponed the formation of public Protestant churches until after
1572. Conflicting interests and beliefs, as well as the war and
political struggle, shaped the final religious outcome. Local
considerations and individual responses played their part alongside
the decisions of rulers, whether Philip II and his lieutenant, the
duke of Alva, or William the Silent. Alastair Duke's work is of
central importance to a proper understanding of both Reformation
and Revolt.
