John
Whitgift, author of the Lambeth Articles, was the last Elizabethan archbishop
of Canterbury. His writings reflect the religious climate of England as the
doctrines of the Reformation took hold across the whole church and Puritans
were increasingly persecuted. Volume 1 of his works covers the first six
tractates in his ecclesiological conflict with Puritan Thomas Cartwright.
John
Whitgift
(1530–1604) was archbishop of Canterbury from 1583 until his death. He tutored
Francis Bacon in classics at Cambridge, attended to Elizabeth I on her
deathbed, and crowned James I.
