1984512792Folger Books 1984. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. VERY GOOD/Very Good. 278pp. Sewn binding in black cloth. Tips worn. 1' tear to DJ spine. Moderate edgewear to spine. Clean and unmarked copy. 'David Berkowitz's Humanist Scholarship and Public Order published posthumously in the Folger Documents Series is far more than the simple annotated edition suggested by its sub-title. The proliferation of government sponsored treatises in support of political obedience and religious innovation has long been recognized as an integral part of the Henrician Reformation but the tracts themselves seldom emerge from the obscurity of an STC citation or a brief précis in a secondary work. Professor Berkowitz has unearthed two such rare treatises from among collections at the Huntington and Folger libraries. They were written in 1536 by Sir Richard Morison at the request of the government in response to the northern rebellions known as the Pilgrimage of Grace and are presented here in a first modern scholarly edition with a series of introductory essays on Morison's career and on the intellectual and political milieu in which he worked. Following the tracts themselves only fifty-four pages in all are ten 'Related Contemporary Documents': three sets of rebel demands three responses by Henry VIll the report by Lancaster Herald of his visit to the rebel leader Robert Aske the general pardon for the rebels interrogatories addressed to Aske and others with Aske's answers and-curiously -a proclamation providing victual for the royal army sent North in October. A full but slightly outdated bibliographical essay this volume was originally scheduled for 1976 analyzes books and articles dealing with Morison the Pilgrimage and the reign of Henry VIll.'
