	CRANMER - LoveToKnow Article on CRANMER (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)

		Cranmer stood by the dying bed of Edward as he had stood by that of his father, and he there suffered himself to be persuaded to take a step against his own convictions.

	BBC - History - Thomas Cranmer (1489 - 1556)
		Thomas Cranmer, considered by many to be the creator of the English Reformed Church as we know it today, entered the ministry for a simple reason: his father only had enough land to give his eldest son, so Thomas and his younger brother - as poor members of the gentry - joined the clergy.
		Cranmer was given a fellowship at Jesus College, Cambridge in 1510, which he lost when he married the daughter of a local tavern-keeper.

		Cranmer may well have been prepared to die; but he saw that he had God’s work to do in England and he was not going to needlessly remove himself from that task.
		Cranmer was truly a Protestant Reformer, in belief and in action, even though he was not a politician and many of his endeavours took years to bear fruit in the political arena.

		The question of how Cranmer was able to maintain a wife before clerical marriage was legalized is resolved by MacCulloch on the grounds that Thomas Thirlby, who led an inquiry into the practice, "was, after all, one of his old Cambridge friends" (251).
		The young Cranmer's idea of consulting theologians to decide the legality of the king's divorce may have first brought him to Henry's attention, but it was, in fact, "a humanist commonplace" (46).
		Cranmer had himself abandoned "moderate Catholic humanism" in 1537, in response to the violence of the pilgrimage of grace (179).

	Hugh Latimer, Nicholas Ridley, & Thomas Cranmer
		Thomas Cranmer was Archbishop of Canterbury in the days of Henry, and defended the position that Henry's marriage to Katharine of Aragon (Spain) was null and void.
		When Edward came to the throne, Cranmer was foremost in translating the worship of the Church into English (his friends and enemies agree that he was an extraordinarily gifted translator) and securing the use of the new forms of worship.
		As long as the monarch was ordering things that Cranmer thought good, it was easy for Cranmer to believe that the king was sent by God's providence to guide the people in the path of true religion, and that disobedience to the king was disobedience to God.

		Cranmer's purpose in his Second Communion service was not to improve or restore to purity the historic Latin liturgy in English form.
		Cranmer was the master, or rather the creator, of English liturgical style, because he had apprehended the nature of worship.
		To serve the purposes of worship he brought the resources of the scholar: appreciation of the fine compositions of liturgical Latin; knowledge of the rules of rhythm and clausula; facility and felicity in translation; a feeling for the meaning of words.

	Anglican Theological Review: Thomas Cranmer, A Life
		This biographer's Cranmer is not only more sympathetically presented, his genuine consistencies and passions, hesitations and confusions are developed, warts and all, so that by the end of this study we are reintroduced to a surprisingly more complex and theologically committed Cranmer.
		For example, Cranmer was distinctly not a member of the White Horse Tavern group of Cambridge reformers; instead, he was throughout the 1520s a conventional, biblical humanist and orthodox Catholic.
		MacCulloch amplifies the scope and danger of the so-called "Prebendaries Plot" against Cranmer during the early 1540s, proving this complex and detailed scheme was craftily coordinated by Gardiner to convince the King that Cranmer was indeed the greatest heretic in Kent.

		MacCulloch reconstructs the crises which Cranmer negotiated, from his compromising association with three of Henry's divorces, the plot by religious conservatives to oust him, his role in the attempt to establish Lady Jane Grey as Queen, to the vengeance of the Catholic Mary Tudor.
		In gaol after Mary's accession, Cranmer nearly succumbed to recant his life's achievements, but was able to turn the very day of his death at the stake into a dramatic demonstration of his Protestant faith.
		Cranmer's beliefs were distinct, certain, and in some respects quite different from what I had thought.
