  • More about The Royal Supremacy in the Elizabethan Church

This book explores the theoretical extent of royal supremacy in the Elizabethan church and investigates the limits of Queen Elizabeth I's authority in the localities, based on documents ranging from Acts of Supremacy to letters of individual gentlemen.

Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 236 pages

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


Originally published in 1969, this comprehensive book delves into the theoretical boundaries of royal supremacy within the Elizabethan church and assesses its practical effectiveness. The first section explores the responses of Catholics, moderate Protestants, both clerical and lay, to the appointment of a lay head of the English church. The second section examines the extent of Queen Elizabeth I's authority. The collection of documents, spanning from formal Acts of Supremacy and Uniformity to personal letters written by gentlemen guiding their local congregations, sheds light on the gap between theory and practice. Unlike any previous book in this field, this work endeavors to precisely determine the limits of Queen Elizabeth I's powers in localities, offering a unique perspective on the subject.
