Key Topics
- Henry VIII & Reformation: Henry VIII claimed the title Fidei Defensor (1521). His succession crisis and desire for an annulment from Catherine of Aragon led to a split with Rome, influenced by Thomas Cromwell's view of Church/State relations and Thomas Cranmer's theology.
- The Prayer Book: Explores the principle lex orandi, lex credendi (the law of prayer is the law of faith). Vernacular worship evolved from Hilsey's Primer (1539) and the King's Primer (1545, translating the Salisbury "Sarum Use") to Cranmer's Great Litany (1544).
- Anglican Communion: Covers the organization of global Anglican provinces and the distinctive features of the Episcopal Church.
