  • Deprived Cathedral Clergy and English Catholicism, 1553-1574’ (Mphil Thesis, Cambridge, 2015)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo 1 THE ORIGINS OF RECUSANCY IN ELIZABETHAN ENGLAND RECONSIDERED FREDERICK E. SMITH Clare College, University of Cambridge ABSTRACT. Most historians now acknowledge that Catholic recusancy existed in small pockets throughout 1560s and early 1570s England thanks to the sporadic efforts of a handful of former Marian priests. However, it is widely agreed that the influx of continentally trained seminarians and missionaries from abroad after 1574 was responsible for transforming the ‘curious and confused’ activities of these Marian clergymen into a fully fledged, intellectually justified campaign in favour of non-conformity. This article challenges this consensus through investigation of a neglected group of clerics – the cathedral clergy of Mary I’s reign. Drawing on insights emerging from recent research into the nature of Mary’s church, it demonstrates how these clerics became key agents in the so-called ‘invention of the Counter-Reformation’ in Marian England. It suggests that this ‘upbringing’ gave these priests the determination and skills to become leaders of a co-ordinated campaign in favour of principled non-conformity following Elizabeth’s accession. Far from lacking the zeal of their seminary and missionary counterparts, this study sees the former cathedral clergy imitating the practices of their adversaries and anticipating the strategies of the later English mission in order to promote recusancy throughout England from as early as 1560. On 24 June 1559, less than a year after the state-sponsored restoration of English Catholicism came to an abrupt end with the death of Mary Tudor, Elizabeth I’s government passed ‘An act for the uniformity of common prayer and divine service’.

    1275. HISTORY OF THE TRUBEE FAMILY, BY HARRIET TRUBEE GARLICK. BRIDGEPORT, CONN.: PUBLISHED BY THE MARIGOLD PRINTING COMPANY. 1894. AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF MY BELOVED GRANDFATHER SAMUEL COi\fFORT TRUBEE. HARRIET TRUBEE GARLICK. INTRODUCTION. REALIZING the fact, that unless the members of a family are sufficiently interested in their past record to preserve it in writing, it will be forgotten and lost by the passing away of generation after generation, I have written, for the benefit of ourselves and descendants, a history of our family, commencing with· our Hebrew ancestor Andris Trubee, of Holland. The Jews of that land came from Spain; where, for many years, they had occupied the highest positions in lit­ erature, art and wealth. In order to_ escape persecution many of the Jews, outwardly, embraced Catholicism, but secretly worshiped the '' God of Israel." King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella resolved to confis­ cate the property of their Jewish population for the bene­ fit of the Church and State; therefore they issued a man­ ifesto expelling all Hebrews within their realm. Noble­ men and peasants were treated with the same severity, and soon beautiful homes and halls of learning, were vacated for the crowded vessel, and a refuge in a strange land ; penniless, and with only a few articles of clothing, many of this abused people reached Holland, where their indus­ trious habits soon enabled them to acquire, again, a com­ petency. Andris Trubee descended from these Spanish refugees. CONTENTS. HISTORICAL. INTRODUCTION. PAGE.
