Having obtained a first class degree in mathematics from Wadham
College, Oxford, Walter Waddingham Shirley (1828 66) taught
mathematics there before turning his attention to ecclesiastical
history. Shirley earned a reputation amongst his contemporaries as
an objective researcher with a clear writing style, and he was
considered one of the ablest of the new Oxford historians. The
Fasciculi, first published in 1858, is a collection of documents
relating to John Wycliffe and his followers. The earliest texts
reproduced in this volume are three partial determinations against
Wycliffe dating from the fourteenth century. The latest document
dates from the trial in 1428 of the Lollard William White. Shirley
successfully proved in his introduction that the documents,
originally attributed to the Carmelite friar Thomas Netter of
Walden, were compiled after Netter's death. Shirley also argued
that Wycliffe was originally a constitutional rather than a
theological reformer, which provoked criticism from reviewers.
