Michael Tunnicliffe
The Reformation in England took a very strange path.
The dynastic requirements of Henry VIII rather than any theological imperative drove the initial break with Rome.
The subsequent policies of his three children by three different marriages made for a turbulent century in both Church and State.
This course examines the twists and turns of religion in England from 1485-1603
