Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of the Archbishops of Canterbury: From St. Augustine to Juxon The Life of Archbishop Juxon has been added in this volume, to the Life of Archbishop Laud, because I have been desirous of bringing to a conclusion that portion of our history which I have designated as the Reformation Period. In the many volumes I have been permitted to write, I have traced the biographies of our primates from Augustine to Lanfranc, and from Lanfranc to Warham. The Reformation movement commenced in the primacy of Warham, and ceased in the primacy of Juxon, - since which time we have remained stationary. Neither Warham nor Juxon took an active part in the Reformation, but it was carried on under their auspices. In Sheldon the aged Juxon found a representative ready to suggest and to act, and to Sheldon we may look as our great reformer. In Warham´s time the demand for a reformation of the Church, as in former volumes we have seen, universally prevailed; and in England there was a master mind, which in conjunction with the determined will and powerful intellect of the king, might have effected great things for the national Church. But Cardinal Wolsey, powerful as a statesman, was wanting in moral weight of character, and sacrificed an immortal fame to vulgar ambition and self-interest.
