Opis

This reader examines the effects of the Reformation on English society and asks such question as: how widespead was the appeal of Protestantism in England?; how did local communities react to the swings of official policy?; and how much continuity remained with the Catholic past? The contributions in the book identify, and in different and sometimes contradictory ways, attempt to resolve these and other questions. It is structured in three sections that combine a thematic focus with an overall sense of chronological development, exploring the English Reformation in terms of its origins, implementation, and outcomes.
