The Reformation and the Towns in England: Politics and Political Culture, C. 1540-1640

by Robert Tittler

Book Overview

This is an important new analysis of the secular impact of the Reformation on English towns. It shows how the transfer of property, coupled with new statutory responsibilities and the destruction of a doctrine-based political culture, enabled many towns to extend their holdings and increase their institutional authority.
