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 Church and Puritans were
increasingly persecuted. Volume 3 of his works covers the final 3 tractates in
his ecclesiological conflict with Puritan Thomas Cartwright, as well as
selected sermons and letters compiled by the Parker Society.
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.
