Straying at the edges: Lollardy and iconoclasm on the Hampshire-Surrey border, 1433-40
This article brings to light Lollard activity at the Hampshire-Surrey border from 1433 to 1440 that culminated in a failed insurrection, with iconoclastic violence at its core. Based primarily on unpublished legal and administrative records of the English crown, it argues that such sources should be consulted more regularly to fill gaps in episcopal heresy proceedings. The latter are largely lacking for the mid fifteenth century, creating the fal…
The History of Clerical Taxation in England and Wales, 1173–1663: The Findings of the E 179 Project
This article marks the completion of an online database catalogue of the records of taxation of the medieval and early modern clergy of England and Wales in the ‘E 179’ clerical series at The National Archives. It has two parts: an overview of the history of clerical taxation based upon the database's register of tax grants and an analytical guide to the contents of the series, with references to all key documents. The intention is to stimulate r…
Who Was Walter Brut
OF all the early Lollard preachers who risked life and limb to spread Wycliffite doctrine, the most interesting, it can be argued, was Walter Brut. He was remarkable in a number of ways. Firstly, he was the only known early Lollard of Welsh descent. Secondly, he was a layman, and a highly literate one at that, although he does not appear to have practised a profession that necessitated the sort of education that he had evidently acquired; specifi…
Lollardy and Social Status in East Anglia
The Detection of Heresy in Late Medieval England
ONLY a few scholarly articles among the considerable body of secondary literature published on the Lollard or Wycliffite heresy in the last fifty years have focused on the detection and prosecution of this heretical sect; most students of Lollardy have studied either the Lollards themselves or their writings. This monograph, based upon the author's recent doctoral thesis, is thus the first to examine systematically the detection of late medieval …
The arrest of William Thorpe in Shrewsbury and the anti-Lollard statute of 1406
This article publishes a Public Record Office document giving new insight into the arrest and trial of the Lollard chaplain William Thorpe, for which the only previously known source was the narrative account written by Thorpe himself. It reveals also that Thorpe was detained under authority of the 1406 anti-Lollard statute. Drawing on various archival sources, the article examines both the circumstances of Thorpe's arrest and the 1406 legislatio…
Parliamentary and Prerogative Taxation in the Reign of Edward IV
Heresy and Factionalism at Merton College in the Early Fifteenth Century
In his biography of Archbishop William Courtenay published in 1966, Joseph Dahmus wrote that ‘until documented evidence to the contrary is provided, one may assume that the connection between Wycliffitism at Oxford and Lollardy was hardly more than accidental. Although the work of Anne Hudson and Michael Wilks has since shown that the link was anything but accidental, Dahmus’ scepticism is I am grateful to the participants in the three seminars a…
