Description

Explore the complex lives of the Tudor bishops in this detailed historical study by Cambridge University Press. This book examines how these religious leaders functioned as temporal lords, wielding immense power through both spiritual authority and the management of vast estates. Dr. Heal provides a deep look into the economic realities of the era, investigating the true extent of episcopal wealth and how these revenues were utilized. By drawing on extensive research from various dioceses and specific prelates, the text offers a clear picture of the financial landscape in Tudor England. Readers will learn about the precarious nature of this wealth. While the bishops held significant resources, they faced constant economic instability because the crown maintained control over their financial destinies, particularly following the break with Rome. This study is an essential resource for those interested in the social and economic structures of Great Britain during the Tudor period.
