The Voices of Morebath: Reformation and Rebellion in an English Village
- Publisher : Yale University Press
- Illustrations : col + b/w illus
Description:
Between 1530 and 1580, England was transformed from a devoutly Catholic nation into a Protestant one. This acclaimed history brings that revolution to life through the remarkable records of Morebath, a small Devon village whose priest, Sir Christopher Trychay, chronicled his parish through decades of upheaval. His vivid accounts reveal the hopes, fears, and struggles of ordinary villagers as they endured the English Reformation, rebellion, and the loss of their old faith. A rare and intimate portrait of rural life in an age of profound change.
