What reading level is The Church of England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, after the example set by Calvin in the case of Servetus.
Even in Henry's days the leaven had been working in England. Cranmer was peculi- arly susceptible to foreign influences. Loyal as he was to his master's ideal, his mental explanation of the system was first almost Lutheran, and then almost Zwinglian. He had THE REFORMATION 127 all the admiration of the younger men for the adventurous theology of the Continent, and as soon as the King was dead he was busily welcoming its representatives ...to Eng- land. They came from all quarters, from Italy and Poland as well as from Germany, and were of all shades of doctrine. Bucer, a Lutheran who was almost Zwinglian, became Regius Professor of Divinity at Cambridge, and Peter Martyr, an Italian of like views, received the same office at Oxford ; both had been friars. Bucer soon died, but Peter Martyr lived to fly from England at Mary's accession, and to exercise a strong influence over the English exiles in Germany. These and the other visitors under Edward found English thinkers in a receptive mood, with little respect for the old theology and little confidence in themselves.
