Lollardy and Orthodox Religion in Pre-Reformation England

"In this detailed account of the relationship between Lollard heresy and orthodox religion before the English Reformation, Robert Lutton examines the pious practises and dispositions of families and individuals in relation to the orthodox institutions of parish, chapel and gild, and the beliefs and activities of Wycliffite heretics." "This study contends that in certain parts of England by the early sixteenth century piety was subject to dramatic changes which in a number of important ways anticipated the Reformation."--Jacket.
