The Old World and the New. 520 8 $a Shortly before Easter, 1540 saw the end of almost a millennium of monastic life in England. Until then religious houses had acted as a focus for education, literary, and artistic expression and even the creation of regional and national identity. Their closure, carried out in just four years between 1536 and 1540, caused a dislocation of people and a disruption of life not seen in England since the Norman Conquest. Drawing on the records of national and regional archives as well as archaeological remains, James Clark explores the little-known lives of the last men and women who lived in England's monasteries before the Reformation. Clark challenges received wisdom, showing that buildings were not immediately demolished and Henry VIII's subjects were so attached to the religious houses that they kept fixtures and fittings as souvenirs. This rich, vivid history brings back into focus the prominent place of abbeys, priories, and friaries in the lives of the English people. 650 0 $a Monasticism and religious orders $z England $x History $y 16th century. 650 0 $a Monasteries $z England $x History $y 16th century. 651 0 $a England $x Church history $y 16th century. 650 7 $a Monasteries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01025070 650 7 $a Monasticism and religious orders. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01025128 651 7 $a England. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01219920 648 7 $a 1500-1599 $2 fast 655 7 $a Church history. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411629 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011516.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20220730010125.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1ADB773478F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
