""Henry VIII and the English Monasteries"" is a historical book written by Francis Gasquet. The book is divided into two volumes, and the first volume provides a comprehensive account of the dissolution of the English monasteries during the reign of King Henry VIII. The author explores the political, religious, and economic factors that led to the dissolution, as well as the impact it had on the English church and society.Gasquet begins by tracing the history of monasticism in England, from its origins in the early Christian period to the height of its power in the Middle Ages. He then describes the various attempts to reform the monasteries throughout the centuries, including the efforts of the Cluniacs, the Cistercians, and the Augustinians. Gasquet also examines the role of the monasteries in the English economy, particularly their role in agriculture and the wool trade.The main focus of the book, however, is the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII. Gasquet provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the dissolution, including the king's break with Rome and his establishment of the Church of England. He also describes the various methods used by the king to close down the monasteries, including bribery, intimidation, and violence.Gasquet argues that the dissolution of the monasteries had a profound impact on English society, both in the short and long term. He suggests that the loss of monastic lands and resources led to a decline in the quality of life for many people, particularly the poor. He also argues that the dissolution paved the way for the rise of capitalism and the modern industrial economy.Overall, ""Henry VIII and the English Monasteries"" is a fascinating and informative book that provides a detailed account of a pivotal moment in English history.
