Pre-reformation scholars in Scotland in the XVIth century: their writings and their public services: with a bibliography and a list of graduates from 1500 to 1560

About the Book

The Church in Scotland, generations before the Reformation, has usually been portrayed as the blackest spot in Christendom. People sat in darkness, while spiritual and intellectual stupor gripped the Church. However, it should be borne in mind that no evidence has been presented to support this, and Mr. T. Brewer warns a student of this period of history that he will misunderstand it if he begins his investigation by viewing the Reformation as a creation of light to illuminate the previous period of darkness... Books in English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh Literature contain the works of English, Irish, Scottish, and Welsh authors. Titles include: Gill's Irish Reciter. A Selection of Gems from Ireland's Modern Literature, The Pocket Library of English Literature: Elizabethan & Jacobean Pamphlets, Lectures on the English comic writers, Three Centuries of Scottish Literature. Vol. I. The Reformation to the Union, Three Centuries of Scottish Literature. Vol. II - the Union to Scott, and The Influence of Gothic Literature on Sir Walter Scott.
