A Separate Peace chapter 13 vocab
The Act of Supremacy in 1543 made an abundance of people irate, this anger resulted in the Pilgrimage of Grace taking place. There were many people that opposed this movement and many that favored it. The Oath of Honorable Men (doc.1) shows a goal of the Pilgrimage of Grace. It states how you cannot enter the pilgrimage for worldly gain but only for your love of God. It also states, and to expel evil counselors which was a clear goal of The Pilgrimage of Faith. The best way to figure the cause of a movement is to read and understand its oath. A letter written to the king by Robert Aske (doc 5) shows the grievance they want addressed. One of these demands are for the supreme head of the church to be the pope. This is an issue with the King because the pope would not grant him a divorce, therefore the pope cannot be head of the church. By understanding this document we know the problems that Robert Aske had with the king. When King Henry VIII became head of The Church of England, catholic churches started losing land and were Robbed, spoiled, and shorn Of cattle and corn. (doc 4) This was explained by catholic monks. Later in this document it says how they were shorn of their houses and lands. This shows how hostile the king was towards the catholic church after they did not allow him to get a divorce. King Henry VIII was taxing anybody and anything he could according to Robert Aske. Any monies earned from abbey lands are now going to the king. Sea walls, dikes, bridges, and high walls that were once maintained by the monasteries for the good of the Commonwealth are now left untended. (doc. 11) These two quotes show the problems and how corrupt England was under King Henry VIII. Even though he taxed everything, he still couldnt maintain simple things like sea walls, dikes, bridges, and high walls. This is yet another reason why the people rebelled. Richard Mcrisson, writes hired by Thomas Cronwell (doc 7) did not agree with the normal people that rebelled.

    DBQ PILGRIMAGE OF GRACE

    The "Oath of Honorable Men" the participants must take says, "You shall not enter into our Pilgrimage of Grace for worldly gain. Do so for the love of God, for the Holy Catholic Church militant....(Doc. 1)." This oath shows that the members of the Pilgrimage must only protest for the Catholic Church, not for their own gain. The members must do this through their love for God. At the time protestants and catholics had very different views and religion was a source of tension, even though both groups are Christians. In a petition presented to the King's Council, written by Robert Aske in December of 1536, many things are asked of the Council. "To have the supreme head of the Church be the Pope in Rome as before (Doc. 5)." Henry VII had become the head of the Church by the Act of Supremacy in 1534. The demonstrations and protests of the Pilgrimage of Grace were in part reactions to this act. The Pope had been the face of the Church for past centuries. Now, the King, a protestant political figure head, was also the leader of the Church. This was a major concern of the Catholics who started these armed demonstrations. After the petition, a random pamphlet attributed to…

    Henrician Reformation Turning Point

    It is important however to remember that the pope had never had much direct political power in England. He had no army and no proper tax base therefore he could not invade except through an alliance with secular allies. Indeed he blocked Henry 's dispensation to divorce Catherine of Aragon, but a king who was less worried about his soul and his wife’s nephew, the emperor, invading would probably just have ignored his commands. The king had also always had lots of power over the church. Political partnerships between kings, their bishops and abbots had always been a feature of the church, and this war true throughout the period 1485-1529. Henry VII enjoyed a very close relationship with the church through Cardinal John Morton, who was not only Archbishop of Canterbury but enjoyed secular power too as Lord Chancellor. Bishop Richard Foxe was also important to Henry Tudor and these senior figures of the clergy helped Henry develop his tax policies, while at the same time, Benefit of Clergy and other privileges of the church were untouched by the king. This close relationship between church and crown continued for the first twenty years of Henry CIII’s reign, as demonstrated by his long reliance and trust for Cardinal…

But the enactment of the Supremacy act in 1534 by the King made him the head of the church in England, many men feared that this Protestant Reformation would lead to the destruction of England and sought to restore the pope as the head of the church in England.

    Pilgrimage of Grace

    When Martin Luther posted the 95 theses in 1517, he had changed the entire path of European politics and religion. He sparked a thought in the region that in many cases, converted people’s basic Christian beliefs. At the time, the Roman Catholic Church was the most powerful Institution. However, there were many corruptions and problematic doctrines, which Luther opposed. Though most commoners became followers because of faith, political leaders sometimes became protestant for other reasons. One important figure that was influenced by this protestant reformation was King Henry VIII of England. A monarch, he had a great desire to have a son that would be his heir, the next king. Unfortunately, his first wife was only able to birth one daughter. By then Henry VIII had formed a relationship with another woman. This one promised him a son. However, the Catholic Church forbade divorce and Henry VIII was Catholic at the time. To resolve this issue, England separated from the church and began the Anglican Church, a church headed by Henry VIII himself. The Act of Supremacy in 1534 officially began England’s Protestant Reformation. With this new power of the state over the church, the head of the King’s Council, Thomas Cromwell, carried out new government policies which included new taxes, increased power of the monarchy in Northern England, dissolution of Roman Catholic monasteries, and confiscation of the lands that belong to the Church. Enraged, commoners and nobles alike began marching and protesting in what was known collectively as the Pilgrimage of Grace. These individuals that numbered in the tens of thousands, marched for political and religious reasons, while the opposition also claimed political and religious reasons for the protests to stop.…

    Pilgrimage of Grace

    The Pilgrimage of Grace started because many people were dissatisfied with King Henry VIII's actions. The King's decisions to form a new religion sparked a controversy with the devout Catholics, but others were angry, not necessarily with the religion aspect, but just with the mannerisms of the King. For example, the King's decision to make a new religion without a Pope was not revered by some men because they strongly disagreed with heresy. Other people believe that the King was being unfair when he took away their land for his own benefit and profited from it. Some people believe that the King made inexcusable decisions on his behalf, while others believe the King was justified in his decisions.…

    The Investiture Conflict

    The Investiture Conflict

    The beginning of the Investiture Conflict was due to eleventh-century papacy's attack on the clerical abuses of simony, clerical marriage, and lay investiture. According to canon law, bishops were supposed to be elected by the clergy of the diocese, but in practice, anointed kings who claimed themselves to be God’s vicars, appointed bishops and invested them with the symbols of their spiritual and temporal authority, which made power of the popes been challenged. To promote the idea of papal monarchy, reformers seized the opportunity to take the papacy by force while the king, Henry IV, was still a child and could not react. When Henry IV reached adulthood, he continued to appoint his own bishops, while be busy putting down rebellions at the same time. In 1075, after Henry IV won a resounding military victory over the Saxon rebellions, as a position of strength, he resumed his campaign to restore royal authority. As a result, Dictatus Papae appeared in the register of Gregory’s letters, which used to emphasize the power of the pope, and to threaten king Henry’s misbehavior. This attack on the kingship was a challenge to the social order and a threat to the authority of every ruler in Western Christendom. (Bennett, pg. 208) Henry IV reacted to this declaration by sending Gregory VII a letter in which he withdrew his imperial support of Gregory as pope. In the letter, Henry thought that the kingship is “granted by God” but not received from Gregory. Gregory could not interfere his appointment of bishops and abbots. He also quoted what true pope Saint Peter exclaims “Fear God, honor the king” to refute what Gregory said to him. Letters had been passed back and forth between emperor and pope. By the end of 1076 both the emperor and the pope had declared each other excommunicated and deposed from office. After Henry was excommunicated, German princes were happy to hear of it. They used the…
