Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an edited volume consisting of two tracts written by Henry Brinklow, a sixteenth-century London mercer, sometime Grey Friar, and a prominent figure in the English Reformation. The Tracts provide a fascinating insight into the social and religious landscape of the Tudor era. Religious and political turmoil was rife in England during Brinklow's lifetime, and as an outspoken critic of the Catholic Church, his writings offer a unique perspective on the period. The first tract, 'The Complaint to the Parliament of England', is a passionate denunciation of the abuses within the Church, and a plea for the establishment of a reformed Protestant faith. Brinklow's call for the redistribution of Church property to help the poor and fund schools reflects his commitment to social justice as well as religious reform. The second tract, 'The Lamentation of a Christian against the City of London', focuses on the moral and spiritual decline of London, which Brinklow saw as a microcosm of the wider problems afflicting English society. Through a series of vivid and often scathing attacks on the greed, corruption, and hypocrisy of Londoners, Brinklow exposes the gap between the city's professed Christianity and its actual behavior. This book presents a powerful and thought-provoking account of the religious and social challenges faced by England during the Reformation. Brinklow's writings remain essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of this tumultuous period in English history.
