6. Returning exiled Protestants = Liz compared to ‘English Deborah’ (Old Testament
heroine) protecting godly from evils/superstitions of Catholicism. The religious
settlement established the relationship between the Crown + Church + doctrine,
others believed represented starting point for spiritual renewal, true Church, the
English as God’s elect nation (Cecil + Leicester):
● 1562 An Apology of the CofE - Exiled Bishop of Salisbury argued Church
returning to true position, abandoned by Rome

‘half-reformed’ unsuccessful in all clarification = features of practice,
structure, services, clerical dress. Queen not supportive
, Society
1. Changes:
● Nobility peaceable, less concerned with defence = prestige through building
projects to accommodate Queen on progresses (Earl of Pembroke’s Burghley House,
Wilton)
● Increase in gentry (Knights of the shire, figures of national importance (Sir Hatton)
to modest landowners, esquires + JPs) + wealth
● Gap between rich + poor widened = consumer society amongst landed, mercantile,
professional classes, landed income increased, poor vulnerable to
enclosure/decrease real wages
2. Continuity:
● Aristocratic domination = highest peerage title a Duke (Somerset, Northumberland,
Suffolk, Norfolk all dies as traitors = Liz not make more titles after 1572)
● Majority lived in countryside
● Only large city London 150,000, few other cities with excess of 5000 = magnet for
migrants from other parts of country
3. Poor Laws:
● 1563 Statute of Artificers = poor relief (compulsory labour, minimum 1 yr period hire
of workmen in which they couldn’t be dismissed without good cause, JPs set
maximum wage rates) for the maintenance of order, elite saw threatened by
subsistence crisis 1590s (deaths from starvation)

should be whipped. 1572 added branding. 1597 1st time offenders whipped, repeat
offenders executed
● 1572 Vagabonds Act - penalties against vagrants. JPs register poor in parish + raise

refusal sent to house of correction
● 1598 Act for the Relief of the Poor - 4 overseers to supervise administration of relief.
Secure apprenticeships for children, employment for adults, build hospitals for
ols/sick. Funds raised by compulsory rate by parish members (series of bad harvests
= corn price up 80% = riots)
