Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book, a collection of historical documents, focuses on the life and acts of Bishop John Aylmer. It covers his rise from Archdeacon of Lincoln to Bishop of London during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. As an active and bold man, he purged the cathedral church of Lincoln of unclean birds and enforced the spiritual and ecclesiastical jurisdiction. Despite being one of the Queen's Justices of the Peace, Aylmer was not initially favored for the bishopric because of his stance against the splendor and wealth of bishops, a view he maintained throughout his career. However, he became a key participant in the religious controversies of his time, countering the arguments of the Catholic priest Nicholas Sander and opposing Puritan ideas, which he considered equally disruptive to his vision of religious order. This book offers insight into Aylmer's role in shaping the religious landscape of Elizabethan England and his efforts to maintain a middle ground between Papists and Puritans, both of whom sought to undermine the established church. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
