Albert J. Loomie began the study of the political implications of
Spain's concern about English Catholicism during the latter part of
the reign of Queen Elizabeth. This led him to probe one over-riding
issue within that problem: the relationship of the activities of
the English Catholic exiles to the political objectives of Kings
Philip II and Philip III. In the documents of the Estado collection
at Simancas, the archive of St. Alban's in Valladolid, the letters
and reports in the Jesuit archives in Rome, and the State Papers,
Foreign of the Public Record Office he found considerable new
evidence. The basic research was presented in a doctoral
dissertation at London University in 1957 entitled Spain and the
English Catholic Exiles, 1580-1604. Since then Loomie has prepared
an extensive revision of that original study. He has attempted here
to explore the principal ways in which Spain tried to assist the
exiles during the Anglo-Spanish war, and the complexity of the
problems that its policy raised, but did not always solve.
