| Summary | The purpose of this study is to examine the development of a Protestant liturgy in England during the mid-sixteenth century, through an analysis of the eucharistic controversy and the theories that surfaced from it. The sacrament of the Lord's Supper was the corner stone of the Christian Church, and it was through the controversy over the Supper that Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury, devised his synthesis for the Church of England. In an effort to demonstrate the diverse theories and issues in the debate. Chapter One explores the four basio ideas about the eucharist that were circulating in the sixteenth century. The debate in England had a much different character than the discussion on the Continent, therefore. Chapter Two discusses the English controversy as it developed between Protestants and Catholics. The third chapter illustrates the ideas of two of the men purposely invited to England by Cranmer to assist with his reforming* efforts, Martin Bucer and Peter Martyr. Chapter Four concludes the study by looking at the theological ideas of the Archbishop, and how these ideas, being similar to those of the Continental reformers, were incorporated into the official liturgy of the Church of England. |
