Summary

This is a study of the religious culture of sixteenth-century England, centred around preaching, and is concerned with competing forms of evangelism between humanists of the Roman Catholic Church and emerging forms of Protestantism. It is about 'God's Word' and sixteenth-century spirituality, and explores shifts in political power towards Protestantism.
