Ane Satyre of the Thrie Estaitis in production -- Adrienne Scullion -- A book for Lollards and Protestants: Murdoch Nisbets -- New Testament -- Martin Holt Dotterweich -- Throughout the twentieth century, Scottish literary studies was dominated by a critical consensus that critiqued contemporary antiCatholicism by advancing a re-reading of the Reformation. This consensus understood that Scotlands rich medieval culture had been replaced with an anti-aesthetic tyranny of life and letters. As a result, Scottish literature has consistently been defined in opposition to the Calvinism to which it frequently returns. Yet, as the essays in this collection show, such a consensus appears increasingly untenable in light both of recent research and a more detailed survey of Scottish literature. -- This collection launches a full-scale reconsideration of the series of relationships between literature and reformation in early modern Scotland. Previous scholarship in this area has tended to dismiss the literary value of the writing of the period - largely as a reaction to its regular theological interests. Instead the essays in this volume reinforce recent work that challenges the received scholarly consensus by taking these interests seriously. This volume agues for the importance of this religiously orientated writing, through the adoption of a series of interdisciplinary approaches. Arranged chronologically, the collection concentrates on major authors and texts while engaging with a number of contemporary critical issues and so highlighting, for example, writing by women in the period. It addresses the concerns of historians and theologians who have routinely accepted the established reading of this period of literary history in Scotland and offers a radically new interpretation of the complex relationships between literature and religious reform in early modern Scotland. -- The Most Hated Man in England -- Make or mar -- Daily Round, Common Task -- A Bloody Season -- Shaking the Throne -- In a Glass Darkly -- A Merry Widower Thwarted -- Reformation and Retribution -- The Distant Sound of Conflict -- The Royal Neck in the Yoke -- No Armour Against Fate -- A Traitors Cry for Mercy -- Thomas Cromwell was an infamous figure in the court of Henry VIII. The son of a brewer, Cromwell rose from obscurity to become the Earl of Essex, Vice-Regent and High Chamber- lain of England, Keeper of the Privy Seal, and Chancellor of the Exchequer. He maneuvered his way to the top through intrigue, bribery, and sheer force of personality. -- Cromwell pursued Henrys interests with single-minded energy and no little subtlety. Tasked with engineering the judicial murder of Anne Boleyn when she had worn out her welcome in the royal chamber, he tortured her servants and relations to extract condemning information, then organized a show trial of Stalinist efficiency. -- Cromwell also orchestrated the greatest act of privatization in English history: the seizure of the monasteries. Their enormous wealth was used not only to enrich the crown, but also to cement the loyalty of the English nobility. -- Over the course of his career, Cromwell himself amassed a fortune through bribery and theft, and created many enemies along the way. As meteoric as his rise was, his fall was spectacularbeheaded outside the Tower of London, his boiled head was placed on a spike above the London Bridge. -- world of sixteenth-century England vividly to life through the incredible story of one of the most cunning and ruthless men in British history.
