  • OPENING of the ROPER VAULT in St. Dunstan's Canterbury and Thoughts on the Burial of William and Margaret Roper
    OPENING OF THE ROPER VAULT in St. Dunstan's Canterbury and thoughts on the burial of William and Margaret Roper. by Hugh O. Albin From Saturday 15 July until Wednesday 26 July 1978, the vault of the Roper family remained open in St. Dunstan's Church, Canterbury, for the purpose of making a complete record of its contents. This first archaeological survey ever made was arranged by me to mark the 500th anniversary of the birth of Sir Thomas More. The work was carried out by members of the Canterbury Archaeological Trust under their director Tim Tatton-Brown in conjunction with the church architect Peter Marsh, whose Dutch assistant, Henk Strik made detailed drawings of the Chapel and vault, as well as a complete photographic record. The archaeological report tells us that the present Roper chantry chapel attached to the south-east side of St. Dunstan's Church is almost entirely the building that was erected circa 1524. Of the first chapel, built in 1402, there probably remain only the three arches, one on the west and two on the north, which join the chapel to the main church building. The pilgrim looking at the outside of the Roper Chapel should notice that it is made of fine red bricks with Caen stone quoins and window surrounds. The windows are all typical of the early 16th century. The bricks are large (6.5 x 12 x 25 cms) and each laid entirely in an English bond. Red brickwork of this type does not occur commonly in Canterbury until the late 15th century.

  • The Family and Descendants of Sir Thomas More
    The Family and Descendants of Sir Thomas More Grandparents: William More and Johanna Joye: William was a Citizen and Baker of London. He died in 1469. Johanna (d.1470) was the daughter of John Joye, a Citizen and Brewer of London and his wife Johanna, daughter of John Leycester, a Chancery Clerk. Due to the seizure of family documents by Henry VIII following Thomas More‟s execution his ancestry cannot be traced back further than this. He referred to himself as “a Londoner born, of no noble family, but of honest stock”. [Note: It has sometimes been claimed that Sir John More, Thomas More‟s father, said that his ancestors came from Ireland. However, what he actually said was that his ancestors “either came out of the Mores of Ireland, or they came out of us”. No records of any Irish links have been discovered.] Parents: Sir John More (c.1451-1530) and Agnes Graunger (d.1499): John and Agnes were married in the church of St Giles without Cripplegate, London, on 24th April 1474. Agnes was the daughter of Thomas Graunger, an Alderman of London and a Merchant of the Staple of Calais. Agnes was John More‟s first wife, and the mother of all his children. Agnes died in 1499 and was buried in the Church of St. Michael Bassishaw, London. After her death John More married again three times. His second wife was Joan Marshall (the widow of John Marshall) who died in 1505. His third wife was Joan Bowes (the widow of Thomas Bowes) who died in 1520.

  • Sir Thomas More (1478-1535)
    The following text was originally published in Prospects: the quarterly review of comparative education (Paris, UNESCO: International Bureau of Education), vol. XXIV, no. 1/2, 1994, p. 185–202 ©UNESCO:International Bureau of Education, 2000 This document may be reproduced free of charge as long as acknowledgement is made of the source SIR THOMAS MORE (1478-1535) Keith Watson1 Sir Thomas More, or more accurately Saint Thomas More, since he was beatified by the Roman Catholic Church in 1886 and canonized as a saint in 1935, has been variously described as ‘the most attractive figure of the early sixteenth century’,2 ‘the voice of conscience’ of the early English Reformation3 and ‘one of the three greatest figures of the English Renaissance’.4 He was a scholar, lawyer, theologian, statesman and eventual martyr, whose influence was less on the development of the Reformation in England as upon creating a particular genre of futuristic and idealistic writing about society. His most famous book, Utopia, has come to be accepted as an everyday term in the English language and ‘utopian’ is often used to refer to an idea or concept that is idealistic and highly desirable, but which at the same time is completely impracticable and unrealistic. In terms of political science, both liberals and socialists lay claim to Thomas More as a founder of some of their ideas. There has even been a room in the Kremlin devoted to Thomas More because of his apparent espousal of communism as a political ideal.5 He was born into a period of intense political and social turmoil in English history as the House of York was overthrown by Henry Tudor in 1485 and as a new, ruthless dynasty was established, a dynasty that was to have a profound influence not only on the future shape of Church/State relations, and consequently on the development of parliamentary democracy in England and Wales, but above all on the future development of the Reformation in England.

Le De tristitia, tedio, pauore, et oratione Christi ante captionem eius, texte d’une grande intensité dévotionnelle et émotionnelle, n’en est pas moins marqué par les traits d’esprit et l’humour ironique caractéristiques de More. L’œuvre est traduite en anglais quelque temps après le décès de More par sa petite-fille, Mary Roper, mais c’est seulement en 1557, après le mariage de cette dernière à James Basset, et alors qu’elle tient l’office de dame de compagnie (« lady of the privy chamber ») de la reine Marie Tudor, que la traduction est publiée. On la retrouve en effet dans l’édition des English Works de More par William Rastell (1557), qui présente Mary Basset comme une femme « tout à fait experte en latin et en anglais ». Bien que les notices biographiques et les ouvrages de référence sur l’écriture féminine anglaise à la Renaissance fassent mention de cette œuvre — quoique parfois de manière erronée —, ainsi que des passages tirés de l’Histoire de l’Église d’Eusèbe que Basset avait précédemment traduits en latin et en anglais, ces textes n’ont jamais été étudiés. Afin de remédier à cette situation, cet article offre dans un premier temps une analyse détaillée de l’œuvre remarquable que représente Of the sorowe, werinesse, feare, and prayer of Christ before hys taking.

Thomas More A Man for Our Timet WILLIAM KINSELLA* In any talk on Thomas More, the question naturally arises as to what not to include-for any comprehensive discussion of More would require not hours or even days but rather weeks. Most of us are aware of how very full a life Thomas More lived-a life of letters, of learning, of profes- sional duties, of statesmanship, of domestic activity, and not least, of sanctity. In fact, it requires quite a full life to study and appreciate all the ground he seems to have covered. This short discussion is therefore, nec- essarily, sketchy, and must fail to survey many aspects of More's life and works. Such items as I have chosen are designed to give a general, rather than complete, view of this man who has so rightly been dubbed a man for all seasons. When we learn that More at a certain stage of his life allowed himself but two hours of sleep out of every twenty-four, we marvel at his routine and output: how he could possibly have been able to find even two hours for rest? One of his biographers, Stapleton, tells us that he was helped considerably in the maintenance of his routine by wearing a hair shirt and sleeping on planks, with a log for a pillow.

  • Catholicism, Kinship and the Public Memory of Sir Thomas More
    Jnl of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. , No. , July . # Cambridge University Press DOI: .\S Printed in the United Kingdom Catholicism, Kinship and the Public Memory of Sir Thomas More by MICHAEL QUESTIER Historians are now particularly aware that kinship had political and social resonances in the early modern period. Historians of English Catholicism in this same period have always stressed that a web of family networks helped to sustain the English Catholic community within its harsh post- Reformation environment. But how exactly did this happen, particularly when Catholicism in England was so diverse, and when Catholics were often deeply divided over key political and religious issues? In this essay I examine how these relationships worked for one significant kinship group, a set of people descended from or related to the Henrician Lord Chancellor, Sir Thomas More, and thus how they affected Catholicism’s political and ecclesial expressions of itself. I argue that in doing this, we can begin not only to reveal how far religious continuity depended on or was influenced by kinship, but also to describe some of the ways in which post-Reformation Catholicism was defined and perceived. here has long been a consensus that post-Reformation Catholicism in England was something which was nurtured and sustained by Tand within Catholic families. The flame of the faith, we are told, was kept alive, during the harsh times of persecution, by those Romish families which point blank refused to conform to the religion of the Church of England. In several of them we find a continuous tradition of resistance to the introduction of Protestant ideas into the English Church from the time of the first reform measures during the reign of Henry .

About five years since I had the pleasure of recommending this delightful piece of genuine biography to the attention of those who are gra- tified by authentic pictures of ancient manners and ancient virtues. The very limited impression then published was received in the most flatter- ing manner, and copies have now for some time ranked among the number of scarce books. More than one literary journal of eminence gave its approving voice, and recommended the repro- duction of this biographical gem in a form which would give it more extensive circulation. I have at length listened to the suggestion, and my good fortune has enabled me very much to amend the text by the collation of two manuscript copies. One of these, in the handwriting of Roper's age, has come into my possession since the former edition was printed; for the collation of the other I am indebted to the polite attention a 2 : vi editor's preface. of Sir William Strickland, Baronet, of Boynton, in Yorkshire ; who was kind enough to furnish me with it : a favour conveyed in the most agree- able manner, as it came unsolicited, and which I have much pleasure in gratefully acknow- ledging *.

  • The Roper Gateway, St. Dunstan's Street, Canterbury

DUNSTAN'S STREET, CANTERBURY TERENCE PAUL SMITH INTRODUCTION When John Roper died in April 1524 he left property in 'Candlewicke Street' ( = Cannon Street), London, and lands in northern Kent which fall into three groups: a western group in Eltham (Well Hall), Bexley, Charlton, Chislehurst, Greenwich, Kidbrook, Lee, Motting- ham, and Woolwich; a central group - south-east of Sittingbourne - in Doddington, Kingston, Lynsted, and Norton; and an eastern group in Canterbury (St. Dunstan's and St. Stephen's, Hackington), Blean, Heme, Reculver, Swalecliffe (Chesterfield), and Whitstable.1 Of these, the most important were those at Eltham Well Hall, which formed the family home, and Place House, St. Dunstan's, Canter- bury, where the nearby church contains the family chantry chapel.2 Place House in the extra-mural parish of St. Dunstan's at Canter- bury lay somewhat east of the parish church on the opposite side of St. Dunstan's Street.3 Nothing remains of it apart from the brick entrance gateway, now set between eighteenth- and nineteenth- century buildings, fronting onto the pavement.4 John Roper's will mentions the 'pryncypall place, with the barnes, stables, courtlages, 1 Anon., 'Archbishop Warham's Letters', Arch.
