English Reformations : Religion, Politics, and Society under the Tudors, Paperback / softback Book

English Reformations : Religion, Politics, and Society under the Tudors Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

English Reformations takes a refreshing new approach to the study of the Reformation in England.

Christopher Haigh's lively and readable study disproves any facile assumption that the triumph of Protestantism was inevitable, and goes beyond the surface of official political policy to explore the religious views and practices of ordinary English people.

With the benefit of hindsight, other historians have traced the course of the Reformation as a series of events inescapably culminating in the creation of the English Protestant establishment.

Dr Haigh sets out to recreate the sixteenth century as a time of excitement and insecurity, with each new policy or ruler causing the reversal of earlier religious changes.

This is a scholarly and stimulating book, which challenges traditional ideas about the Reformation and offers a powerful and convincing alternative analysis.
