In surveying the authorised doctrinal works of the English church through the Reformation period, the progress of eschatological thinking is traced from the earliest days of change to the solidification of the formularies which remain binding across the worldwide Anglican Church today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFresh observations are made on some well-known texts such as the \u003cem\u003eBooks of Common Prayer, Articles of Religion\u003c\/em\u003e and official Tudor homilies, and these are complemented by commentary on surprisingly understudied documents of the period including primers, catechisms, and the paratexts of the early printed English Bibles. The result is a fascinating study of the English reformers’ navigation past both Roman Catholic and radical anabaptist beliefs, and it shows that their arrival at a relatively barren destination was due in part to a complete switch in theological priorities and in part to a fear of the implications of formally adopting some of the highly contested views.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eEstablishment Eschatology\u003c\/em\u003e will prove to be an important resource for students and scholars of England’s early modern religious and cultural history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54237108765016,"sku":"9781032305387","price":179.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781032305387.jpg?v=1769068852","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/establishment-eschatology-in-england-s-reformation","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
