Description

Explore the profound shifts in sixteenth-century English society with Beliefs and the Dead in Reformation England. Published by Oxford University Press, this work serves as the first comprehensive study of how the Reformation impacted the status of the departed. Protestant reformers introduced a revolutionary doctrine by rejecting the concept of purgatory, insisting there was no middle place between heaven and hell where the living could assist souls through prayer. This change was not merely a theological debate; it fundamentally altered how people lived, how the Church operated, and how society was organized. This book provides deep insight into the ambivalent attitudes and social transformations triggered by these religious shifts during a period of massive cultural change.
