Religion in Tudor England offers readers the prose and the poetry,
the theology and the spirituality, the prayers and the polemics, of
one of the most important epochs in the making of modern
Christianity. Beginning with King Henry VII, the Tudors' reign
included the break with Rome and the rise of English Protestantism,
a series of religiously inspired revolts, the burnings of nearly
three hundred Protestants for heresy under Queen Mary, the
executions of scores of Catholics for treason under Queen
Elizabeth, and the emergence of the Puritan challenge to the Church
of England. Moreover, the English Reformation coincided with the
English Renaissance, and the foremost religious thinkers of the
age, Catholic as well as Protestant, are also among the greatest of
English prose stylists. The sources in this unique anthology,
accidentals modernized and accompanied by careful notes and
detailed historical, literary, and theological introductions,
immerse readers in this world and allow them to explore
comprehensively - for the first time - what was lost, what was
transformed, and what was preserved in the English Reformation.
