1. Introduction: Reformation, Life-Writing and the Commemorative Impulse: The Power of the Individual- David J. Crankshaw and George W. C. Gross -- 2. 1535 in 1935: Catholic Saints and English Identity: The Canonization of Thomas More and John Fisher- William Sheils -- 3. Thomas Cranmer's Reputation Reconsidered- Ashley Null -- 4. 'Agents of the Reformation': Margaret Cranmer, Anne Hooper and Elizabeth Coverdale- Rachel Basch -- 5. Anne Askew- Susan Wabuda -- 6. 'A Man of Stomach': Matthew Parker's Reputation- David J. Crankshaw -- 7. John Whitgift Redivivus: Reconsidering the Reputation of Elizabeth's Last Archbishop of Canterbury- Felicity Heal -- 8. Anthony Munday: Eloquent Equivocator or Contemptible Turncoat?- Elizabeth Evenden-Kenyon -- 9. Polemic, Memory and Emotion: John Gerard and the Writing of the Counter-Reformation in England- Peter Lake and Michael Questier -- 10. Rehabilitating Robert Persons: Then and Now- Victor Houliston.

This book highlights the pivotal roles of individuals in England's complex sixteenth-century reformations. While many historians study broad themes, such as religious moderation, this volume is centred on the perspective that great changes are instigated not by themes, or 'isms', but rather by people - a point recently underlined in the 2017 quincentenary commemorations of Martin Luther's protest in Germany. That sovereigns from Henry VIII to Elizabeth I largely drove religious policy in Tudor England is well known. Instead, the essays collected in this volume, inspired by the quincentenary and based upon original research, take a novel approach, emphasizing the agency of some of their most interesting subjects: Protestant and Roman Catholic, clerical and lay, men and women. With an introduction that establishes why the commemorative impulse was so powerful in this period and explores how reputations were constructed, perpetuated and manipulated, the authors of the nine succeeding chapters examine the reputations of three archbishops of Canterbury (Thomas Cranmer, Matthew Parker and John Whitgift), three pioneering bishops' wives (Elizabeth Coverdale, Margaret Cranmer and Anne Hooper), two Roman Catholic martyrs (John Fisher and Thomas More), one evangelical martyr other than Cranmer (Anne Askew), two Jesuits (John Gerard and Robert Persons) and one author whose confessional identity remains contested (Anthony Munday) Partly biographical, though mainly historiographical, these essays offer refreshing new perspectives on why the selected figures are famed (or should be famed) and discuss what their reformation reputations tell us today.
