Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the history of the Reformatio Legum Ecclesiasticarum, an ambitious but ultimately unsuccessful attempt to reform ecclesiastical laws. The author traces the Reformation's origins to the reign of Henry VIII, when Parliament empowered a commission of 32 to revise canon law, with a focus on divorce. Amid the religious and political turmoil of the 16th century, the commission's work was influenced by prominent figures like Archbishop Cranmer and the foreign Protestant reformer Peter Martyr. Despite being incomplete at Henry's death, the Reformatio was revived under Edward VI and finally published in 1571, albeit without royal assent. It proposed sweeping changes to divorce laws, allowing it in cases beyond adultery, but encountered resistance from both the Crown and the Church of England. The author explores the Reformatio's significance in the broader context of religious and legal reforms in Tudor England, shedding light on the complex interplay between church and state in shaping societal norms during a transformative period.
