Drawing upon extensive manuscript research, it focuses on the reign of Mary I (1553-1558), when the official return to Roman Catholicism was accompanied by the prosecution of Protestants for heresy, and the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), when the state religion again shifted to Protestantism. I argue that the cognitive dissonance created by these seesaw changes of official doctrine necessitated a society in which religious mutability became standard operating procedure. For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief. -
Beyond the Bosphorus: the Holy Land in English Reformation Literature, 1516-1596
BEYOND THE BOSPHORUS: THE HOLY LAND IN ENGLISH REFORMATION LITERATURE, 1516-1596 Jerrod Nathan Rosenbaum A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature. Chapel Hill 2019 Approved by: Jessica Wolfe Patrick O’Neill Mary Floyd-Wilson Reid Barbour Megan Matchinske ©2019 Jerrod Nathan Rosenbaum ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Jerrod Rosenbaum: Beyond the Bosphorus: The Holy Land in English Reformation Literature, 1516-1596 (Under the direction of Jessica Wolfe) This dissertation examines the concept of the Holy Land, for purposes of Reformation polemics and apologetics, in sixteenth-century English Literature. The dissertation focuses on two central texts that are indicative of two distinct historical moments of the Protestant Reformation in England. Thomas More's Utopia was first published in Latin at Louvain in 1516, roughly one year before the publication of Martin Luther's Ninety-Five Theses signaled the commencement of the Reformation on the Continent and roughly a decade before the Henrician Reformation in England. As a humanist text, Utopia contains themes pertinent to internal Church reform, while simultaneously warning polemicists and ecclesiastics to leave off their paltry squabbles over non-essential religious matters, lest the unity of the Church catholic be imperiled. More's engagement with the Holy Land is influenced by contemporary researches into the languages of that region, most notably the search for the original and perfect language spoken before the episode at Babel. As the confusion of tongues at Babel functions etiologically to account for the origin of all ideological conflict, it was thought that the rediscovery of the prima lingua might resolve all conflict. -

For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief. Although early modern theologians and polemicists widely declared religious conformists to be shameless apostates, when we examine specific cases in context it becomes apparent that most individuals found ways to positively rationalize and justify their respective actions. This fraught history continued to have long-term effects on England’s religious, political, and intellectual culture. -

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -

Preface One of the best ways to acquaint oneself with an unfamiliar (or even suppos- edly familiar) view is to allow its advocates to speak for themselves. This book by Johannes Maccovius (1588-1644) does just that; it presents a new critical Latin edition and an English translation of his seminal work on theological and philosophical distinctions. During most of the seventeenth century it was used as a classroom book at Reformed universities and academies from England to Transylvania. -
Celebrating the 400Th Anniversary of the King James Bible
CHRISTIAN Issue 100 HISTORY Celebrating the 400th anniversary of the King James Bible Read how the pet project of an intellectual king became, against all odds, the most beloved English book Did you know? Three KJV myths First, the KJV was not translated personally by King James I, though he did pride himself on his biblical scholarship and “as a young man and a good Protestant Scot had made his own metrical versions of thirty of the Psalms, and of the Book of Revelation.” And he doubtless appreciated the effusive two-page dedication that appeared in the front of every printed copy of the Bible. Second, although the British have since the early 1800s called the KJV “the Authorized Version,” the KJV was never authorized. The term “Authorized Version” is more aptly used of the Great Bible of 1539, prepared by Myles Coverdale, which Henry VIII in 1541 and 1547 (and Elizabeth I in 1559) commanded to be read in churches, under threat of penalty for those omitting to do so. No such proclamations from either king or bishops prescribed the use of the King James Version. Third, and also contrary to popular belief, “this version was not universally loved from the moment it appeared. Far from it. As a publication in the seventeenth century it was undoubtedly successful: it was heavily used, and it rapidly saw off its chief rival, the three Geneva Bibles. But for its first 150 years, the KJV received a barrage of criticism.” (See “No overnight success,” p. 22.) Source: David Daniell, The Bible in English: Its History and Influence (2003) The “funny” version? “The prose style of the King James Version lends itself well to parody. -
The Translators of the Bible Into English
The Bible The Translators of The Bible Into English Introduction This paper is a summarization of those noble saints, many who were “faithful unto death” (Rev. 2:10) in translating the Scriptures into English. They were godly men who spent many tedious hours, ofttimes with quill and ink, diligently seeking the best word for the significance of that which was in the material available to them. It was not easy work for they did not have computers and the many tools we have today, neither did they have brightly lit rooms but ofttimes worked in low light situations in the evenings. It was in many ways a thankless task by the leading religious authorities. They certainly did not do it for monetary gain, rather, there were times when they lost their employment because of it, and some were put to death. Neither was it for the egotistical glorification of their own name being associated with it, indeed John Rogers did not use his own name. That which drove such men was the desire for the glorification of God through the common people having the Holy Scriptures in their own language. The ancient scriptures were written in three languages. Most of the Old Testament was written in Hebrew with a few passages in Aramaic. The New Testament was written principally in Greek with some words of the Lord in Aramaic. Marcion of Sinope was perhaps the earliest of Gnostic teachings in that he believed and taught that Jesus was the Saviour but not the God of Israel. He rejected the entire Hebrew scriptures. -

MAJOR KING JAMES BIBLE TRANSLATORS Class Session 7B A
MAJOR KING JAMES BIBLE TRANSLATORS Class Session 7b A. Dr. Lancelot Andrews. 1. He was the president and director of the Westminster group that translated twelve books, altogether (Genesis to 2 Kings). The task of Company One. 2. He studied most of the modern languages and devoted himself chiefly to the Oriental languages, being educated at the University of Cambridge. 3. His manual for his private devotions was prepared by himself and written wholly in the Greek language. 4. "In his funeral sermon by Dr. Buckeridge, Bishop of Rochester, it is said that Dr. Andrews was conversant with FIFTEEN LANGUAGES. Certainly, he was a respected and superior translator." I don't know any of these modern translators of the ASV, NASV, NEV, NIV, Living Letters, or paraphrases who are conversant with as many as fifteen (15) languages. B. Dr. William Bedwell was also in Company One, the Westminster Group translating Genesis through 2 Kings from Hebrew into English. 1. He had the reputation as being "an eminent Oriental scholar." 2. His fame for Arabic learning was so great that scholars sought him out for assistance. Another stated concerning him: "The honor of being the first who considerably promoted and revived the study of the Arabic language and literature in Europe." 3. In Antwerp, Germany, in 1612, he published in quarto an Edition of the Epistles of St. John in Arabic with a Latin version. I don't know anything about Arabic, but to have an edition of 1, 2, 3 John with Latin and Arabic would take a tremendously skilled and capable scholar.
