England In The Age Of Wycliffe

""England in the Age of Wycliffe"" is a historical book written by George Macaulay Trevelyan, which explores the social, political, and religious landscape of England during the 14th century. The book focuses on the life and teachings of John Wycliffe, an influential theologian and reformer who challenged the authority of the Catholic Church and paved the way for the Protestant Reformation. Trevelyan provides a detailed account of the political and economic conditions of England during this period, including the Black Death, the Peasants' Revolt, and the Hundred Years' War. He also examines the impact of Wycliffe's teachings on society, particularly his emphasis on the importance of individual interpretation of the Bible and the rejection of papal authority. The book is well-researched and provides a comprehensive overview of the events and ideas that shaped England in the age of Wycliffe. It is an essential read for anyone interested in medieval history, the Reformation, or the development of religious thought in Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
