- Church and
People:
England
1450-1660
(Blackwell
Classic
Histories of
England): (09 June
1999)This book
provides
readers with
an account of
the rivalry
between the
two kingdoms
of Church and
State between
the years 1450
and 1660.
England
inherited,
from medieval
times, two
systems of
authority: the
Church,
governed by
Pope and
Bishops; and
the State,
ruled by
Monarch and
Lords.
However, from
the late
fourteenth
century
onwards, this
division was
increasingly
challenged by
the laity's
insistence on
their right to
choose not
only between
different
systems of
Church
government but
also between
different
forms of
religious
belief. The
author charts
the rivalry
between clergy
and laity's
and shows how
political and
social
developments
between 1450
and 1660 were
decisively
influenced by
this conflict.
This second
edition
includes
updates
throughout the
text in the

pp.
23-35.There
has been much
recent
examination of
late medieval
lay piety in
order to
understand the
background to
Henry VIII's
reformation,
notably Colin
Richmond's
studies of the
`privatised'
religion of
the English
gentry. Such
work has
largely
over-looked
papal sources
and the
associated
issue of
relations
between
English and
Welsh society
and the
papacy. This
article seeks
to remedy this
neglect by
presenting new
evidence from
the registers
of the papal
penitentiary.
In the late
middle ages
the papal
penitentiary
was the
highest office
in the western
Church
concerned with
matters of
conscience and
the principal
source of
papal
absolutions,
dispensations
and licences.
Petitions
seeking such
favours were
copied in its
registers, and
this article
especially
concerns
petitions from
English and
Welsh gentry
seeking
licences to
have a
portable altar
or to appoint
a personal
confessor
(littere
confessionales
). It also
examines their
requests for
various other
favours that
illustrate
their piety,
notably
regarding
fasting,
chastity and
pilgrimage.
The article
contests
Richmond's
notion of
`privatised'
gentry
religion and
similar
distinctions
between elite
and popular or
personal and
collective
religion. It
appends
translations
of three
significant
documents from
the
penitentiary
registers and
a statistical
table
concerning
requests for
littere
confessionales

God: Women
Prophets in
Late Medieval
and Early
Modern England
(Library of
Medieval
Women): (03 May
2001)Diane
Watt sets
aside the
conventional
hiatus between
the medieval
and early
modern periods
in her study
of women's
prophecy,
following the
female
experience
from medieval
sainthood to
radical
Protestantism.
The English
women prophets
and
visionaries
whose voices
are recovered
here all lived
between the
twelfth and
the
seventeenth
centuries and
claimed,
through the
medium of
trances and
eucharistic
piety, to
speak for God.
They include
Margery Kempe
and the
medieval
visionaries,
Elizabeth
Barton (the
Holy Maid of
Kent), the
Reformation
martyr Anne
Askew and
other godly
women
described in
John Foxe's
Acts and
Monuments, and
Lady Eleanor
Davies as an
example of a
woman prophet
of the Civil
War. The
strategies
women devised
to be heard
and read are
exposed,
showing that
through
prophecy they
were often
able to
intervene in
the religious
and political
discourse of
the their
times: the
role of God's
secretary gave
them the
opportunity to
act and speak
autonomously
and publicly.

580: (11 March
2005)This
prize-winning
account of the
pre-Reformatio
n church
recreates lay
people?s
experience of
religion in
fifteenth-cent
ury England.
Eamon Duffy
shows that
late medieval
Catholicism
was neither
decadent nor
decayed, but
was a strong
and vigorous
tradition, and
that the
Reformation
represented a
violent
rupture from a
popular and
theologically
respectable
religious
system. For
this edition,
Duffy has
written a new
Preface
reflecting on
recent
developments
in our
understanding
of the period.
