What would a ‘crisis in religion’ look like during the reigns of Edward and Mary?

6. Edward and Mary: Foreign Policy Mid-Tudor Crisis argument
So far we have looked at the reasons Whitney Jones gives for there being a Mid-Tudor Crisis in government and foreign policy. Now we will look at the reasons he gives for there being a Mid-Tudor crisis in relation to religion.
The turmoil of the English Reformation continued unabated in this period as England vacillated between the moderate reformism of Somerset, the radicalism of Northumberland, and the arid conservatism of Mary.
The religious upheaval destabilised the roots of society and contributed to the rebellions witnessed in this period.

7. Edward and Mary: Government
Revisionist argument
The religious and economic strife of the period had deeper roots than traditionalists have suggested, and are in no way particular to this period.

12. Religion under Somerset
Somerset = sympathetic to Protestantism but is sensitive and aware of the potential implications of radical religious change.
Exiled Protestants returned to England from Europe and settled on the East Coast
The Reform faction were in control of the Government, but English Bishops were split on whether to support further change
Relaxation of censorship led to an increase in the number of pamphlets and writing against Catholicism
At first, the government adopted a logical policy. A full scale enquiry into the state of the Church of England was launched.
Measures were introduced to undo the 6 Articles of Religion
Rules introduced that provided for services and Bibles to be in English
Parliament 1547: Enact religious change, but did little more than underline what was already happening.
The Chantries Act: abolished Chantries
WAR WITH SCOTLAND ENDED
1549 Act of Uniformity: English as language of worship; congregation get body and blood; services along familiar lines and priests dressed and behaved as always.
1549 Book of Common Prayer: Arch Bishop Cranmer ‘master of vagueness’
Crisis – government poses danger to the monarch?
Write answers on the board – factionalism, weak leadership (Lord Protectors for Edward)

13. Religion under Northumberland
Protestant reformers continued to flood into England. Some were Calvinist.
Northumberland was keen to support people with radical views. Opportunist or sealing his position?
Conservatives lost their prominent positions e.g. Gardiner
January 1552 Parliament:
Treason Act; Act of Uniformity
Book of Common Prayer
1553 alters replaced with communion table
attack on the wealth of the church
Crisis – government poses danger to the monarch?
Write answers on the board – factionalism, weak leadership (Lord Protectors for Edward)

14. Humanism under Edward
There is no agreement on what people in England thought in relation to religion.
Landowners tend to prefer Protestantism
London had enthusiasm for Protestantism
For many others it was acceptance rather than enthusiasm
Uneducated did not like the disappearance of familiar ceremonies
However, humanism was having a strong influence amongst the educated elite
Had been flowering at Cambridge University
Some of Erasmus’ work was translated into English
Originally, humanism had not been ‘Catholic’ or ‘Protestant’, but by Edward’s reign some humanists were conservative in their theology. However, younger people were not and humanist ideas soon became linked with Protestantism.
Humanism became linked with education
Edward’s tutor (Richard Cox) was a humanist, Elizabeth’s tutors were also humanist
Humanists were also keen to spread their knowledge
This led to an explosion in printing – metrical psalms (psalms translated into English poetry and set to hymn tunes)
Clergy published theological books e.g. Sermon of the Plough
Crisis – government poses danger to the monarch?
Write answers on the board – factionalism, weak leadership (Lord Protectors for Edward)

15. Religion under Mary
Aim of Mary was to reinstate Catholicism (brought up as a Catholic)
Parliament 1553
First Act of Repealed reversed religious change to when Edward became King
Parliament 1554
Pole is back (Papal legate and will become Arch Bishop of Cantebury)
Second Act of Repeal – reversed religion to 1529
Feb 1555 – Heresy Act which led to the death of roughly 300 Protestants
Those who would not renounce their faith were burnt at the stake
Cranmer was burnt at the stake, but so were ordinary people
Cranmer’s death was significant because he had been the guidance force behind the introduction of Protestantism
Mary did not want him executed but had no choice – Cranmer recanted but stood by his Protestantism
Mary saw the burning as necessary to cleanse the country of Protestant heresy
Her advisors were less convinced…
Those burnt became heroes and was used by Protestant’s who has fled as propaganda
However, it is careful not to exaggerate the effects of the burnings e.g. little evidence of strong reactions beyond London.

17. Source Extract Plan TASK: Underline the key arguments in this extract
There is obviously something to be said for the view that the years 1536 to 1558 were a period of crisis for the people of England. These years saw unprecedented rapid changes in religion, arguably the two areas which affected most intimately the lives of ordinary Englishmen. Historians are now emphasising the profound psychological shocks which these upheavals must have meant for hundreds of thousands of men and women who had been accustomed to much less volatile conditions. It is doubtful, on the other hand, if the Tudor State was ever in quite such serious difficulties as the word ‘crisis’ implies. It was occupied successively by a sick and rapidly aging bully, a boy who was too young to rule and a woman with limited political abilities. In these circumstances what is significant and remarkable is not the weakness of government but its relative strength.
