This book cannot be expected to please everybody, and it makes no attempt to conciliate those who prefer sentiment to truth, or who allow their reading of historical events to be distorted by present-day controversies, whether ecclesiastical or political. In that respect it tries to live up to the dictum of Samuel Butler that 'he excels most who hits the golden mean most exactly in the middle'.

  • Thomas Wolsey's Epistle and Gospel Lectionaries
    THOMAS WOLSEY’S EPISTLE AND GOSPEL LECTIONARIES: UNANSWERED QUESTIONS AND NEW HYPOTHESES1 By James P. Carley Illustrations of the manuscripts discussed in this article can be found in the colour plate section. The history of Thomas, Cardinal Wolsey’s epistle lectionary (Oxford, Christ Church, MS. lat. 101; henceforth ChCh 101) and gospel lectionary (Oxford, Magdalen College, MS. lat. 223; henceforth Magd. 223), perhaps the two finest surviving examples of his cult of magnificence in its final phase, continues to be elusive in spite of all the scholarship devoted to them.2 Much remains unclear about the context of their production, about their intended destination, about where they were stored after Wolsey’s fall, about why they were not destroyed during the Edwardian purges of 1 I first undertook research on these manuscripts when I was preparing a study of The Libraries of King Henry VIII (London, 2000). Subsequently I spoke on them in the Cambridge Seminar on Christianity and the Book, and they became the focus of the fifth in a series of lectures I gave to the English Faculty at the University of Oxford in 2006. Frustrated by the seeming contradictory information they yielded, I put them aside until the autumn of 2014 when my friend Martyn Percy became Dean of Christ Church, Oxford, at which point I became determined to assemble my scattered thoughts as a tribute to him. I am grateful to various people for their assistance over the years: Steve Gunn, Christine Ferdinand, Mirjam Foot, Margaret Goehring, Elizabeth Morrison, Cristina Neagu, Nicholas Pickwoad, Glenn Richardson, David Rundle, David Skinner and James Willoughby.

    Manchester Medieval Sources Series series advisers Rosemary Horrox and Simon MacLean This series aims to meet a growing need amongst students and teachers of medieval history for translations of key sources that are directly usable in students’ own work. It provides texts central to medieval studies courses and focuses upon the diverse cultural and social as well as political conditions that affected the functioning of all levels of medieval society. The basic premise of the series is that translations must be accom- panied by sufficient introductory and explanatory material and each volume therefore includes a comprehensive guide to the sources’ interpretation, including discussion of critical linguistic problems and an assessment of the most recent research on the topics being covered. also available in the series Andrew Brown and Graeme Small Court and civic society in the Burgundian Low Countries c. 1420-1520 John H.

Each entry includes material on his birth, parentage, education and career, marriage and immediate family, and death. This survey is based on those entries.

  • Challenging Times for Stephen Gardiner, Bishop of Winchester by Andrew Payne
    Challenging Times for Stephen Gardiner, Bishop of Winchester by Andrew Payne Fig 1 Stephen Gardiner (c.1483-1550), Bishop of Winchester by English School from Hardwick Hall © National Trust Images Introduction The 1530s were, arguably, the most turbulent of the whole Tudor period. Stephen Gardiner was bishop of Winchester from 1531. Here, by looking at his actions and writings during this period (and also in the 1550s), I hope to reveal something of the character of Winchester’s last great Catholic bishop. To do this I have examined The Letters and State Papers of the Reign of Henry VIII [1], published in 28 volumes, the Letters of Stephen Gardiner [2], first published in 1933, and Hall’s Chronicle, first published in 1548 [3]. I have also drawn on numerous secondary sources which are identified within the text. Gardiner does not receive a good press. The Dictionary of National Biography [4] refers to his “reputation for double dealing which he bore throughout his career”. Shakespeare, in his play Henry VIII, written some fifty years after Gardiner’s death, has Henry VIII accusing Gardiner of flattery and of having, “a cruel nature, and a bloody ...” T. M. Parker in his authoritative work on the English reformation [5 p.17] calls him “timid, intriguing and 1 borné” (narrow-minded). Hutchinson [6. p.225] calls him “devious, scheming and odious”. Was he really that bad? Gardiner was consecrated Bishop of Winchester in 1531. When Anne Boleyn was crowned Queen of England in 1533, Gardiner escorted her into Westminster Hall. In 1534 he wrote an influential work that asserted that the Pope had no jurisdiction over Henry VIII.

  • The Prelude to the Reformation
    THE PRELUDE TO THE REFORMATION RICH_-\RD FOX, BISHOP OF \VINCHES:fEI<. STUDIES IN CHURCH HISTORY THE PRELUDE TO THE REFORMATION A STUDY OF ENGLISH CHURCH LIFE FROM THE AGE OF WYCLIFFE TO THE BREACH WITH ROME BY R. 'S. ARROWSMITH, M.A. R!:.CTO.R OF SEALE, SURREY WITH TWO PORTRAITS LONDON SOCIETY FOR PROMOTING CHRISTIAN KNOWLEDGE N.&:W YORK AND TORONTO: THlt MACMILLAN CO .. Printed in Gnat Britain. PREFACE N the following pages an attempt is made to give, from I reliable contemporary documents~ some account of English Church life in the century and a half which preceded the breach with Rome. My treatment of the period lays no claim to being in any way adequate or exhaustive. Exigencies of space have precluded any treatment of the Friars, or of the survival and influence of Lollardy, or of the relation between the Renaissance and the Reformation. Each of these subjects demands (and deserves) a separate monograph. The present work is simply a sketch of certain aspects of Church life, and in no sense a formal history. What is termed the Reformation was no sudden Movement forced upon the Church by an obscure student in Germany, or by an autocratic sovereign in England, but was the result of causes which had long been at work, and which made reformation, in some form or another and sooner or later, inevitable. The Movement can, therefore, only be · understood by reference to the events which long preceded it, and to the life, work and general conditions-intellectual, social, political and religious-of the Church in the 15th and first quarter of the 16th centuries.
