This book is the first in-depth study of the production and use of
Bibles in late medieval and early modern England. Over three and a
half centuries, from the nascent universities and Latin Bibles of
the thirteenth century to the death of Edward VI in 1553, it puts a
new perspective on the advent of moveable type print and religious
reform. Based on the analysis of hundreds of biblical manuscripts
and prints it reveals how scribes, printers, readers, and patrons
have reacted to religious and political turmoil. The material
evidence undermines traditional narratives, revealing, for example,
evidence of Church worship in English prior to the Reformation, or
seeing Henry VIII's Great Bible as a useless book.
