The Reformation of the Decalogue tells two important but previously
untold stories: of how the English Reformation transformed the
meaning of the Ten Commandments, and of the ways in which the Ten
Commandments helped to shape the English Reformation itself.
Adopting a thematic structure, it contributes new insights to the
history of the English Reformation, covering topics such as
monarchy and law, sin and salvation, and Puritanism and popular
religion. It includes, for the first time, a comprehensive analysis
of surviving Elizabethan and Early Stuart 'commandment boards' in
parish churches, and presents a series of ten case studies on the
Commandments themselves, exploring their shifting meanings and
significance in the hands of Protestant reformers. Willis combines
history, theology, art history and musicology, alongside literary
and cultural studies, to explore this surprisingly neglected but
significant topic in a work that refines our understanding of
British history from the 1480s to 1625.
