Bag om Martin Marprelate
Martin Marprelate: The Epistle, September-November, 1588 (1880) is a book that compiles a series of anonymous pamphlets written by Martin Marprelate, a pseudonym used by a group of English Puritans during the late 16th century. The pamphlets were written in response to the Church of England's strict adherence to traditional practices and its persecution of Puritanism. The book contains the September-November 1588 edition of The Epistle, which is a collection of satirical and critical letters addressed to various members of the Church hierarchy, including bishops and the Queen herself. The letters criticize the Church's practices, such as the use of vestments and the Book of Common Prayer, and call for a more simplified and pure form of worship. The book provides insight into the religious and political tensions of the time and the efforts of Puritans to reform the Church.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
