Law and Conscience: Catholicism in Early Modern England, 1570-1625

By Stefania Tutino

Examining Catholic elaboration on the relationship between state and Church in late Elizabethan and Jacobean England, this book casts light on the ways in which a distinctive religious minority was able to adapt itself within a singular political context. In so doing it contributes to the significant question of how different religious affiliations could (or might) be integrated within one national reality, and how political allegiance and religious belief began to be perceived as two different identities within one context.
