Description:"I have an ear for other preachers," said John Cheke, "but I have a heart for Latimer." A warm religious fervor, social conscience, eloquence, and homely humor have established for Latimer a place in the history of Tudor England shared by no other preacher. It is especially fitting that a selection from the sermons of the most popular preacher of the English Reformation should be included in the Folger Shakespeare Library's series of Tudor and Stuart documents. The only edition of the sermons now in print, this volume contains a chronological table of Latimer's life and an introduction which provides a study of his life, including his reformist ideas and the steps which led to his martyrdom in 1555 at the hands of Catholic Mary Tudor. The editor, Allan G. Chester, has modernized spelling and punctuation, but not capitalization. He has retained obsolete and archaic word forms for flavor and linguistic interest. For all but one of the sermons, the basic text is that of the Folger copy of the earliest printed edition. The collected editions of 1562 (STC 15277) and 1571-1572 (STC 15284) provide the texts of the last three sermons in the volume. The other sermons had all been printed earlier. ALLAN G. CHESTER, Felix E. Schelling Professor of English Literature at the University of Pennsylvania, is the author of 'Hugh Latimer, Apostle to the English' and co-author of 'George Joyce: A Chapter in the History of the English Bible'. Dr. Chester also has edited 'The Bible: Selections from the Old and New Testaments' and ' Shakespeare's Henry IV, part II.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
