Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the Dissolution of the Monasteries under King Henry VIII and Thomas Cromwell by providing a county-specific analysis of the event in Staffordshire, which is not often the focus of such analysis. This case study provides the reader with a more granular understanding of the Dissolution and dispels some of the myths, misconceptions, and generalisations which often arise from more sweeping histories. The book investigates the financial and material effects of the Dissolution and delves into the lives of the monks and nuns who were involved, providing insights into the social conditions of the time and the factors contributing to the religious and political shifts that shaped the Reformation. Through a series of detailed case studies, the author sheds light on how local communities were affected and how they adapted to the changes, offering new perspectives on the impact of the Dissolution on both a micro and macro level. The book demonstrates that closures were not always unpopular or controversial and were often supported by local communities who were keen to acquire the wealth of the monasteries, emphasizing the importance of local context in understanding the events of this period. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
