2. FLIP LEARNING The work due in for today is: TASK:
Finish notes on opposition to religion (clergy, court and country)   
‘Opposition to the Reformation of the Church in England failed in the years 1530 to 1547 because it lacked leadership.’  Assess the validity of this view.  
1.Create a criteria 
2.Make a list of OTHER reasons that opposition failed in  

3. Resistance within the Court
THOMAS MORE
ARAGONESE FACTION
Most high profile opponent (had been Chancellor after Wolsey 1529).
He fell from favour for refusing to support Henry’s divorce.
He was sent to the Tower of London for refusing to accept the succession act of He refused to explain why he would not take the oath (we think it was because it would involve going against the Pope’s authority).
A trial by Thomas Cromwell sealed his fate. Richard Rich gave evidence that More had been heard in prison saying he did not accept Henry as head of the Church. Slender proof of treason but enough to order his execution.
More had used passive resistance, but was too famous to avoid persecution.
Before 1534, those who opposed the attack on the Church expressed their concerns by being sympathetic to Catherine of Aragon (Aragonese faction).
Individuals involved: Henry Courtenay; Lord Darcy and Hussey; Sir Henry Guilford.
From 1532 the presence of Anne Boleyn and Thomas Cromwell largely silenced this group.
They remained hopefully that Mary (Catherine’s daughter) would be recognised as heir. Her exclusion from the succession pushed Darcey and Hussey into supporting the Pilgrimage of Grace. They were executed for treason.
Courtenay was not involved in the rebellion but was executed for being linked to Reginald Pole.

4. Resistance within the Clergy
Elizabeth Barton, Nun of Kent
Monastic Resistance
Subject to visions since her teens, following an illness that was apparently cured by a vision of the Virgin Mary.
Acquired local fame, and in 1528 her visions had begun to focus on the King’s marriage. She warned of disastrous consequences if he abandoned Catherine of Aragon.
By 1530 Bocking had developed Elizabeth’s warnings into a wider campaign against the church, humanism and the Great Matter. He encouraged pilgrims and publishing books describing her visions.
Rumours were circulated. Letters were sent to More and Fisher; links established with Courtenay and Hussey and Carthusian monks in London. (orchestrated)
Cromwell acted, the nun and her mentors were arrested in After a public humiliation at St. Pauls Cross, Elizabeth confessed her visions were false. They were killed under an Act of Attainder.
Strongest clerical resistance came from monastic orders.
The Cistercian and Benedictines were not widely active (owned rural monasteries which had been dissolved).
There were many examples of individual monks who preached against the divorce.
The Carthusian order, remained closer to the strict ideals of monasticism they refused to accept the divorce and in 1534 resisted government pressure to agree to a declaration against the authority of the Pope.
The government forced the monks to submit, arresting the most reluctant. 18 were executed.

5. Resistance within the Country
Religious causes
Secular (non-religious) causes)
Why it failed
Dissolution of monasteries
Fear for parish churches and traditional religious practice
Economic grievances (resentment of taxation)
Crown’s attempt to impose the Duke of Suffolk upon Lincolnshire as a magnate sparked the rebellion
Courtly conspiracy promoted by councillors who supported Catherine of Aragon.
Tenant grievances (Pennines and Cumberland)
Geographically widespread
Lincolnshire rebellion collapsed quickly when faced with the forced of the Duke of Suffolk.
Then the northern rebels occupied York and Hull and captured Pontefract castle. This caused great alarm to the King and his ministers.
The King sent an army north under Duke of Norfolk, encountering the rebels near Doncaster. The Duke was outnumbered…
Norfolk therefore negotiated and issued a pardon and promise that dissolved monasteries would be restored and free parliament established. The King never intended to meet these promises…
When the rebellion renewed in Cumberland and East Riding (1537), Henry went back on his word
Duke of Norfolk supressed the rebellion, declared martial law and hanged 74 rebels.

The Eucharist and the belief of transubstantiation remained.
Although still mainly in Latin, thanks to Cranmer, some elements were now in English in 1545.

Many of the processions and events of this Church remained.
