Reviews

'Mary C. Erler's elegant examination of monastic reading and writing during the Dissolution revolves around six case studies representing different facets of religious life in early Tudor England. By drawing attention to their reading and especially their writing in the midst and aftermath of the Dissolution, Erler offers a more rounded picture of the regular clergy - as active participants in the English Reformation.' Martin Heale, American Historical Review
