Royal Priesthood in the English Reformation assesses the
understandings of the Christian doctrine of royal priesthood, long
considered one of the three major Reformation teachings, as held by
an array of royal, clerical, and popular theologians during the
English Reformation. Historians and theologians often present the
doctrine according to more recent debates rather than the
contextual understandings manifested by the historical figures
under consideration. Beginning with a radical reevaluation of John
Wyclif and an incisive survey of late medieval accounts, the book
challenges the predominant presentation of the doctrine of royal
priesthood as primarily individualistic and anticlerical, in the
process clarifying these other concepts. It also demonstrates that
the late medieval period located more religious authority within
the monarchy than is typically appreciated. After the revolutionary
use of the doctrine by Martin Luther in early modern Germany, it
was wielded variously between and within diverse English royal,
clerical, and lay factions under Henry VIII and Edward VI, yet the
Old and New Testament passages behind the doctrine were definitely
construed in a monarchical direction. With Thomas Cranmer, the
English evangelical presentation of the universal priesthood
largely received its enduring official shape, but challenges came
from within the English magisterium as well as from both radical
and conservative religious thinkers. Under the sacred Tudor queens,
who subtly and successfully maintained their own sacred authority,
the various doctrinal positions hardened into a range of early
modern forms with surprising permutations.
