Throughout history, Lollardy has been viewed as a precursor to the Protestant Reformation. There has been a long ongoing debate among scholars trying to identify the extent of Lollard beliefs among the English. Attempting to identify who was a Lollard has often led historians to look at the trial records of those accused of being Lollards. One aspect overlooked in these studies is the role civic authorities, like the mayor of a town, played in the heresy trials of suspected Lollards.

    False Oaths The Silent Alliance between Church and Heretics in England, c.1400-c.1530 Sarah Raskin Submitted in partial fulFillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Sarah Raskin All rights reserved ABSTRACT False Oaths: The Silent Alliance between Church and Heretics in England, c. 1400-1530 Sarah Raskin This dissertation re-examines trials for heresy in England from 1382, which saw the First major action directed at the WyclifFite heresy in Oxford, and the early Reformation period, with an emphasis on abjurations, the oaths renouncing heretical beliefs that suspects were required to swear after their interrogations were concluded. It draws a direct link between the customs that developed around the ceremony of abjuration and the exceptionally low rate of execution for “relapsed” and “obstinate” heretics in England, compared to other major European anti-heresy campaigns of the period. Several cases are analyzed in which heretics who should have been executed, according to the letter and intention of canon law on the subject, were permitted to abjure, sometimes repeatedly. Other cases ended in execution despite intense efforts by the presiding bishop to obtain a similarly law-bending abjuration. All these cases are situated in the context of the constitutions governing heresy trials as well as a survey of the theology and cultural standing of oaths within both WyclifFism and the broader Late Medieval and Early Modern world. This dissertation traces how Lollard heretics gradually accepted the necessity of false abjuration as one of a number of measures to preserve their lives and their movement, and how early adopters using coded writing carefully persuaded their co-religionists of this necessity.

  • Dawn of the Reformation Vol 1
    THE DAWN OF THE REFORMATION BY HERBERT B. WORKMAN, MA. VOL. I THE AGE OF WYCLIF London: CHARLES H. KELLY 2, CASTLE ST., CITY RD.; AND 26, PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C. 1901 OCR and formatting by William H. Gross www.onthewing.org Nov 2016 Page breaks have been adjusted for readability (widow/orphan) PREFACE I HAVE entitled this little work The Dawn of the Reformation. My purpose is to trace the various influences and forces both within and without the Church, which produced the great revolution of the sixteenth century. At what hour" dawn" begins is always a matter of dispute, and depends largely on local circumstances. But one thing is certain. A new day has begun long before the average worker has commenced his toil. So with the Reformation. The study of its causes cannot commence with Erasmus or Savonarola; its methods and results were to some extent settled for it in the century before Luther or Cranmer. My narrow limits have compelled me to omit many things of interest, and to compress into a few lines others which demanded as many pages. viii PREFACE I have constantly realised that to write a small history is more difficult than to write one of larger margins. In what I have included, as well as in what I have omitted, the understanding of the Reformation and its causes has alone had weight. If it be objected that I have given a disproportionate space to Wyclif, or made him bulk larger than he did in his own day, I must plead that his life has scarcely received the attention it deserves.

  • Linguam Ad Loquendum: Writing a Vernacular Identity in Medieval And
    LINGUAM AD LOQUENDUM: WRITING A VERNACULAR IDENTITY IN LATE MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN ENGLAND Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Erin Kathleen Wagner, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Richard Firth Green, Advisor Karen Winstead Ethan Knapp Hannibal Hamlin Copyright by Erin Kathleen Wagner 2015 ABSTRACT The status of the English language in late medieval England is a complicated one. Even though used relatively comfortably by secular authors, like Chaucer and Gower, religious writers were constrained by the oversight of the church and its uneasiness concerning vernacular theological discourse. The purpose of this dissertation is to look more closely at the treatment of the English language across normal genre boundaries, bringing together texts of more secular authors like Chaucer and those of theological writers like Reginald Pecock. In doing so, this project highlights a universal concern with the issue of vernacular identity. The problem of English and what it could be used for was a high-profile one, affecting not only what language writers used, but also the topics they raised. While examining the presentation of the vernacular in my chosen texts, I argue that even texts traditionally considered to be confident in their use of English, like The Canterbury Tales, are preoccupied with the subject of unrestricted speech and the nature of the English language. ii Dedicated to my mother and father, Philip and Deborah Wagner iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without a network of academic, familial, and collegial support.

The Art Of The Question In Late Medieval England Abstract This project uncovers the unwritten rules of the interrogative which acted as arbiters of power in religious discourse between 1300 and 1450. The central claim of the project is that scenes of question-asking dramatize the convergence of conflicting cultural and intellectual investments, as lay people leverage questions to negotiate social position, spiritual authority, and access to knowledge. Viewed as intersections between lay education and clerical learnedness, questions show how late medieval authors incorporated contemporary social concerns about the development of an educated laity. Despite the role of the interrogative in both communicating the laity’s aspirations for religious knowledge and reifying social barriers that denied them such access, there has been no extended study published on questions in Middle English literature. Individual chapters approach questioning through the clerical resources harnessed to address the laity’s demand for religious knowledge, including rhetoric, grammatical thought, and techniques of scholastic disputation. Each chapter examines a genre which represents an intersection between lay education and clerical learnedness: devotional guides such as those by Richard Rolle, Lollard tracts, lyrics, sermons, and elementary textbooks.

  • Pastors and Pilgrims: Augustinian Reform in The
    PASTORS AND PILGRIMS: AUGUSTINIAN REFORM IN THE LATE MEDIEVAL ENGLISH CHURCH by JONATHAN FOGGIN (Under the Direction of Cynthia Turner Camp ) ABSTRACT This study examines currents of reform in the late medieval English church. One of its primary arguments is that “reform” is a concept fundamental to the Christian faith, and the notion of a single, monolithic “Reformation” obscures and distorts other movements of renewal in the history of the church. A related assertion is that “the Reformation” exhibits characteristics more closely connected to revolution than reform. In the early-fifteenth century, the most successful attempts at reform arose out of the renewed appreciation of Augustine that took place in the previous century. While the culturally Protestant English academy has traditionally understood Augustinianism to be synonymous with the doctrine of predestination, in the later Middle Ages there were numerous other strands of Augustinian thought. Of equal, if not more importance, than the predestinarian strain of Augustinianism, was a theological approach that emphasized the cura animarum and the pilgrimage of life. This “pastoral Augustinianism” eschews the revolutionary tendencies that animate predestinarian modes of thought, such as Wycliffism and much of early modern Protestantism, and instead sees religious renewal as something patient of (in the Christian sense of the word) terrestrial imperfection. It is this emphasis on measured, incremental advancement through the fallen world that is characteristic of true reform. These reformist tendencies can be seen in the writings of William Langland and the faith and practice of the Austin Canons, one of whom, an Oxford theologian named Philip Repingdon, came to exercise great influence within the English church.

    After Wyclif: Lollard Biblical Scholarship and the English Vernacular, c.1380-c.1450 by David W. Lavinsky A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (English Language and Literature) in The University of Michigan 2009 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Karla T. Taylor, Co-Chair Associate Professor Theresa L. Tinkle, Co-Chair Professor Thomas A. Green Professor Michael C. Schoenfeldt © David W. Lavinsky _______________________________________________ 2009 In memory of Anne E. Imbrie ii Acknowledgments Inspired by Mike Schoenfeldt’s work, I came to Michigan intending to write a dissertation on Milton. Mike was an exceedingly generous and energetic mentor from the beginning—and no less so after I changed my focus to late medieval literature. Even in the midst of a deanship and numerous committee assignments he somehow always made time to talk. Our conversations would range from medieval to early modern contexts and back again, a salutary reminder that no student of English religious culture can afford to draw strict periodic boundaries or rest complacently in a single archive. His intellectual companionship over the years has made me a better medievalist. Tom Green brought the full scope of his interdisciplinary background in law and history to bear on this project, encouraging me to ask questions I had not thought to ask and thereby to see familiar material in new and exciting ways. I also thank Tom for inviting me to present early chapters of the dissertation at the Premodern Colloquium, of which he is the longtime organizer. It is through his collegiality and dedicated service to intellectual life at Michigan that I was introduced to a community of graduate students and faculty whose insights have vastly enriched my scholarship.

  • LEICESTERSHIRE LOLLARDS by JAMES CROMPTON'
    LEICESTERSHIRE LOLLARDS by JAMES CROMPTON' Henry Crumpe,2 an Irish Cistercian, in 1382 wanted a word to describe the Oxford associates of John Wyclif. He chose to caU them Lollards, and was as a consequence suspended from all academic exercises and from preaching in the university, on the grounds that he had, thereby, caused a disturbance of the peace,3 Lollard had the force of a dirty word, but it stuck, and was extended in scope and meaning to cover all English heretics. Five years later, in 1387, the bishop of Worcester called the heretics in his diocese Lollards4, disciples of anti-Christ, and followers of Mohamet. The poet John Gowers used the word in 1390. About the same time, or not much later, heretics in Leicester were also so described by Knighton, but he went further, and said that they were the disciples of Wyclif: "sicque a vulgo Wycliff discipuli et Wyclyviani sive Lollardi vocati sunt".6 It is interesting that the word Lollard should have been known at all in England, for it originated in the Low Countries, in a Middle-Dutch word lollaerd, first meaning a mumbler or babbler of prayers. It had, therefore, some of the connotations of the later word Ranter. In its latin form, Lollardi, it was applied as a term of abuse in the early-fourteenth century to the Beguines and Beghards, and this must have been the association aroused when Henry Crumpe first used it in Oxford. The word soon acquired further symbolism. By analogy with the word lolium (tares), Lollards came to be looked upon as those who sowed tares in the Lord's wheatfield.7 This was the emphasis in Chaucer's lines "I smelle a loller in the wynde ..
