Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the challenges faced by a community of English Protestant exiles who sought refuge in Frankfurt, Germany during the reign of Queen Mary I (1553-1558). Amidst the broader context of the English Reformation and the religious turmoil of the 16th century, the narrative focuses on the specific conflicts that arose within the Frankfurt congregation regarding the appropriate form of worship and church governance. The author presents a detailed account of the debates and disagreements, particularly concerning the use of the Book of Common Prayer and its associated ceremonies. The text explores the contrasting viewpoints of those who favored a strict adherence to the English prayer book and those who advocated for a more reformed order of service, drawing upon the practices of other Protestant churches in Europe. Central to the narrative is the involvement of prominent figures such as John Knox, William Whittingham, and John Calvin, whose theological perspectives and leadership roles significantly influenced the course of events. The book offers valuable insights into the complexities of religious identity, the challenges of maintaining unity within a diverse community, and the enduring legacy of the English Reformation.
