Christian Culture & Society in Later Catholic England (Brill, 2025) Brand NEW

Too many histories of England view the Church of the late Middle Ages through the lens of the 16th Century Reformation. It thus appears to be a decaying institution in crisis. This cutting edge collection of scholarly essays by 22 specialists in English Medieval history challenges this viewpoint. Delving into an array of institutional, social, cultural and political aspects of pre-Reformation English Catholicism, this volume seeks to understand late Medieval Christianity in England on its own terms. The scholarship is highly specialized, impeccable, and reflects the most recent cutting edge research. This beautifully produced volume is a new examination copy in mint condition! It retails at more than twice my list price! Smoke free home. See all photos carefully to judge condition.
