Description: "Devout northern lay women and men, Puritan earls, godly preachers, heretics, family members, northern bishops and archbishops, priests and monks - all these feature in this collection of original essays on medieval and early modern ecclesiastical life and thought in the north of England.

The book is partly about people, whether northern inhabitants, or those who were associated with the north, but operated within a wider context: Archbishop Thomas Arundel, for example, whose career is radically reinterpreted, Thomas Larkman, vicar of Tavistock, and Henry Darley, MP. Other subjects explored range over grammar schools and early printed books, episcopal jurisdiction and administration, and the interpretation of archives, especially wills."--BOOK JACKET.
