Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a collection of Puritan manuscripts from the Elizabethan era that provides a unique insight into the religious and political debates of the time. The manuscripts include drafts of proposed laws, petitions to the Queen, and personal accounts of the persecution faced by Puritan ministers. While the Puritan movement is often associated with later periods of English history, this book shows that it had deep roots in the Elizabethan era. The Puritans sought to reform the Church of England, which they saw as too closely tied to the Catholic Church. They argued for a more democratic and participatory form of church government, and for a greater emphasis on personal piety and Bible study. The manuscripts in this book reveal the depth and complexity of the Puritan movement. They show that the Puritans were not a monolithic group, but rather a diverse coalition of individuals with different views on many issues. However, they were united in their opposition to the established church and their desire for a more radical reformation of English society. This book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of the Puritan movement or the Elizabethan era. It provides a unique and valuable glimpse into the minds and hearts of the people who shaped this important period of English history.
