St. John Fisher: Humanist, Reformer, Martyr

Meer over het boek

Focusing on John Fisher's significant yet overlooked role during the Tudor period, this work highlights his holiness and contributions as a bishop, preacher, and theologian. Unlike his contemporary, Thomas More, Fisher's legacy has been largely forgotten despite his influence, including the establishment of a seminary system at St. John's College, Cambridge. E.E. Reynolds utilizes newly available primary sources and historical documentation to present a comprehensive and factual portrait of Fisher, positioning him as a crucial figure in the era's religious struggles.
