Fundamentally revising our understanding of the nature and
intellectual contours of early English Protestantism, Karl Gunther
argues that sixteenth-century English evangelicals were calling for
reforms and envisioning godly life in ways that were far more
radical than have hitherto been appreciated. Typically such ideas
have been seen as later historical developments, associated
especially with radical Puritanism, but Gunther's work draws
attention to their development in the earliest decades of the
English Reformation. Along the way, the book offers new
interpretations of central episodes in this period of England's
history, such as the 'Troubles at Frankfurt' under Mary and the
Elizabethan vestments controversy. By shedding new light on early
English Protestantism, the book ultimately casts the later
development of Puritanism in a new light, enabling us to re-situate
it in a history of radical Protestant thought that reaches back to
the beginnings of the English Reformation itself.
