Annotated Bibliography

Holmes, G: Britain after the Glorious Revolution 1689-1714. Macmillian and Co LTD, 1969. Print.
Much of the excitement of history lies not in the narrative of events, but in the process of discussion. This book is wholly concerned with problems. Problems such as corruption took place in the 16th century.
This book covers more than the corruption in the English church but every event that could lead up to this event. It defies the post-revolution and landmarks that are known to the artificial.
Roberts, J.M: The New Oxford History of England. Penry Williams, 1995. Print.
In the 16th century England sheep outnumbered humans by two or three to one. French and English heralds the Frenchman declared that while France is a world of people; a great part of England is a waste desert and savage ground.
The purpose of this book is to give a brief pictorial account of England, Wales, and Ireland in 1547 in which might have started a war with England. This can help with my research because it basically gives me events to look at before the corruption in church.
Jones, J. R.: The Revolution of 1688 in England. George J. McLeod, 1972. Print.
Superficially the Revolution of 1688 can be seen as perhaps the most rapidly executed of all revolutions. The Restoration of the monarchy and the old order in 1660 had been hopefully intended to obliterate the divisions, enmities, and aberrations such as a corruption in the church caused by the Civil War.
The book is resourceful because it basically comments what might have caused a corruption in the church. It also details the studies of historians in the 16th century that could have been involved.
Rex, Richard: Henry VIII and The English Reformation. Richard Rex, 1993. Print.
This book seeks to present Henry’s Reformation in an analytical fashion, presenting in logical order its leading ideas and main features. There seems to be an inherent risk in this

    The short yet significant reign of Edward bought with it a series of severe changes to England and all those within it, many of them taking a religious nature. As the once unquestionable authority of the church became challenged by both critics and affiliates alike, England witnessed an almost inevitable reformation. However, the impact on the majority was not necessarily beneficial- as Duffy wrote, the Reformation bought with it an ‘assault on traditional religion’, leaving many men that ‘breathed easier for the accession of a Catholic queen’.…

    The Catholic Church of the 16th century was perceived as being corrupt and unpopular due to its social hierarchy within its society of ordained men, and their abuse of power to take advantage of the laypeople and their strong faith to extort money out of them for their own greedy purposes. The sources A, B, C and D all depict this corruption in one form or another.…

    During the first half of the 16th century, the Roman Catholic Church was one of, if not the, most important and involved institutions in the lives of the citizens of Europe. As with any powerful institution, corrupt practices evolved, as the Church’s monopoly on paths to Heaven meant people could not criticise it without fear of excommunication and/or damnation. Nevertheless, certain individuals emerged who would lead to the establishment of new churches that could compete with the Church for religious adherents. The momentous challenge first occurred when a young religious man by the name of Martin Luther witnessed the selling of indulgences, which according to the Church, if bought, would act as a sort of Fast Pass to Heaven for the buyer.…

    Historians have debated the powers of the king and parliament for centuries, and the events that molded the power balance between the two institutions. This power balance had been changed to a large extent by the end of the seventeenth century from what it had been at the beginning; as power and control slipped out of the monarchy’s grasp and into parliament’s hands. For could James the 1st have ever imagined that in a few years time his son would be beheaded on the charge of treason, and the monarchy itself would be abolished? Could William the 3rd have contemplated having the power to command a standing army, and conducting a foreign policy independent of Parliament? No one can deny the political changes of this era, however, what can be argued is what form this change took; an evolution or a revolution?…

    This was a program of study that aimed to replace the scholastic emphasis on logic and metaphysics with the study of language, literature, rhetoric, history, and ethics” (Coffin et al, 375). On the other hand, the rise of town, growth of capitalism and birth of democracy had contributed variously from the middle age for the reformation process. Similarly, the fragmentation of Germany into 300 states also facilitated to make voices against the corruption of the church without fearing about the central powerful government. Now, they could print the Protestant books and distribute to the public, which was very significant at that time. Likewise, Pope Leo X was desperate for money to complete the magnificent St. Peter’s cathedral in Rome, which contributed to justify the common people about the nature of the church and motivate them for the process of reformation.…

    Instability remained a common theme throughout English history, especially in the years of 1400-1600. The King's reign of England would usually determine the stability of the realm. When wars broke out, taxes were increased and society became unstable. Those who appeased the King were placed above others, while those who dissatisfied him would meet the blade. That was well understood by the people in the realm of England. Sir Thomas More was an Englishman whom personified the instability of the time. Sir Thomas More was a popular scholar and statesman who towards the latter part of his life became a martyr for his beliefs. The following paper will explore the life and ideas of Sir Thomas…
