Beskrivning

John Fisher was a figure of European stature during the Tudor age. His many roles included those of bishop, humanist, theologian, cardinal, and ultimately martyr. This study places him in the context of 16th-century Christendom, focusing not just on his resistance to Henry VIII, but also on his active engagement with the Renaissance and Reformation.
