This prizewinning account of the preReformation church recreates lay peoples experience of religion in fifteenthcentury England. Eamon Duffy shows that late medieval Catholicism was neither decadent nor decayed, but was a strong and vigorous tradition, and that the Reformation represented a violent rupture from a popular and theologically respectable religious system. For this edition, Duffy has written a new Preface reflecting on recent developments in our understanding of the period.From reviews of the first edition:A magnificent scholarly achievement [and] a compelling read.Patricia Morrison, Financial TimesDeeply imaginative, movingly written, and splendidly illustrated. . . . Duffys analysis . . . carries conviction.Maurice Keen, New York Review of BooksThis book will afford enjoyment and enlightenment to layman and specialist alike.Peter Heath, Times Literary Supplement[An] astonishing and magnificent piece of work.Edward T. Oakes, Commonweal
