Abstract
In this milestone I wanted to gain knowledge about the history of the English Reformation, and how my ancestor, John Tillotson, fit into the historical event. I had learned briefly about the Reformation in high school, but this project gave me the chance to go much deeper. I have had an interest in John Tillotson for some time, but never had the chance to study him in the depth I have here in London. My main takeaway from this project is the knowledge I have gained about the English Reformation, and how John Tillotson continued to shape Catholic-Protestant history in the time following.
Introduction
I suggest you save this section for last. Describe the essence of this project. Cover what the project is and who cares in the first two sentences. Then cover what others have done like it, how your project is different. Discuss the extent to which your strategy for completing this project was new to you, or an extension of previous HUA experiences.
As you continue to think about your project milestones, reread the "Goals" narrative on defining project milestones from the HU2900 syllabus. Remember: the idea is to have equip your milestone with a really solid background and then some sort of "thing that you do". You'll need to add in some narrative to describe why you did the "thing that you did", which you'd probably want to do anyway. You can make it easy for your advisors to give you a high grade by ensuring that your project milestone work reflects careful, considerate, and comprehensive thought and effort in terms of your background review, and insightful, cumulative, and methodical approaches toward the creative components of your project milestone deliverables.
PLEASE NOTE: this milestone template has only a few sections as examples, but your actual milestone should have many relevant sections and subsections. Please start to block out and complete those sections asking yourself "who, what, when, where, and why".
Remember, as you move toward your creative deliverable, you're going to want/need a solid background that supports your case, so you want it to paint a clear and thorough picture of what's going on, so that you can easily dissect your creative component and say "This thing I did is rooted in this aspect of my background research".
Section 1: Background
The English Reformation
Overview
The English Reformation refers to the time period and course of events that caused England to break away from the "Catholic Church" and form the Anglican "Church of England". This change was driven and contested starting with Henry VIII, and continued to be driven by later English monarchs. This was also coupled with a desire of the English people for reform because of the corrupt state of the Catholic Church at the time.[1] This time period and the aftermath can be characterized by both high Catholic-Protestant tension and violence. The following is a brief history of the English Reformation to provide context for John Tillotson's life as a preacher in post reformation England.
Origins with Henry VIII of England (English Reformation)
When Martin Luther dispatched his 95 thesis in Germany during 1517 Henry VIII, the English Monarch at the time, refuted the anti-catholic doctrine.[2] In the year 1521 Henry VIII published a work, in conjunction with Thomas More, titled "Assertio Septem Sacramentorum" (Defense of the Seven Sacraments) refuting Luther's teaching.[3] In this work Henry VIII defended transubstantiation, the real presence of Christ in the sacrament of the Eucharist, as well as masses for the dead. The secondary motive for creating this work was also to promote himself in England as well as abroad.[4] Henry VIII would later be awarded the title "Defender of the Faith" by Pope Leo X.[5] At this point it would seem impossible that Henry VIII would later become the most influential person in leading England into the reformation, but that is exactly what would transpire.
At this time religious unrest had already begun to take hold in England as many believed the Catholic Church to have corrupt flaws.[6][7] Later Henry VIII's wife, Catherine of Aragon, was unable to produce a male heir to the throne, and this began to trouble the king greatly.[8] The king came to believe that God was purposely not giving him a son in accordance with the Bible [9] in the book of Leviticus 20:21 it says "If a man marries his brother's wife it is an act of impurity; he has dishonored his brother. They will be childless." Catherine had previously been married to Henry VIII's brother and for this reason Henry believed he was childless, and that he needed to seek a papal annulment from Pope Clement VII.[10] However due to the Sacking of Rome Clement was unable to comply with Henry's request.[11] At this time Henry had also developed an interest in having Anne Boleyn replace Catherine as his queen.[12] This desire for an heir eventually led Henry to take matters into his own hands by convincing Parliament to create the Church of England during the years from 1534-1539, officially separating England from the Catholic Church.[13] Henry VIII a man once praised by the Pope for his devotion had now severed England's ties to the papacy.
Edward VI of England (Protestant Reformation)
Despite all the trouble Henry VIII went through Anne Boleyn would also not be the one to produce Henry's heir.[14] His third wife Jane Seymour would produce his heir Edward VI.[15] Henry VIII would die in January 1547 leaving his young son Edward to take up his throne at the age on 9.[16] Unlike his father's rule which had started the reformation as a result of political circumstance Edward would continue the English Reformation in a Protestant manner ridding the church of many Catholic practices. In 1552 the word mass was removed and communion wafers were no longer distributed in religious services.[17] This distinctive change to a Protestant Church of England caused a great deal of civil unrest due to rebellions during Edward's short reign.[18] On July 6th, 1553 when Edward after being ill for some time died at the age of 15.[19] Before his death Edward attempted to stop the throne from passing to his Catholic half sister Mary by bestowing it upon another relative Jane Grey.
Mary I of England or "Bloody Mary" (Catholic Restoration)
Edward VI's plan failed and power was transferred to Mary I of England on July 18th, 1553.[20] Mary being a devout Catholic brought it upon herself to undo what her father Henry VIII and her half brother Edward VI had done to transform Christianity in England. Mary either reinstated and appointed bishops back into the Church of England, and appointed Cardinal Reginald Pole as Archbishop of Canterbury who had bee previously exiled.[21] She was conflicted about her role as head of the Church of England because she believed leading the church was a duty that belonged to the Pope in Rome.[22] For this reason Mary made it a priority to reinstate papal authority in the Church of England. This took place in 1554 when Cardinal Pole reversed the excommunication of England and all anti-papal legislation was repealed.[23] Mary gained her name "Bloody Mary" as a result of the sheer number of devout protestants she put to death during her reign. Mary's long term success was dependent on a Catholic heir who would continue her polices after her death. For this reason Mary I married Philip of Spain.[24] However, she would die in 1558 childless leaving no Catholic heir to continue her work.
Elizabeth I of England (Elizabethan Settlement)
After Mary's death her sister Elizabeth I took control of the throne. It was evident from the beginning that Elizabeth would undo all that Mary had done, and make a strong effort to restore England to its Protestant ways. One of the main driving reasons Elizabeth chose to do this was that she, being the daughter of Anne Boelyn was viewed as illegitimate by the Catholic Church.[25] Elizabeth would rule until her death in 1603 with her hallmark legislation being the Elizabethan Settlement.[26] This settlement was comprised of two separate acts passed by Parliament. The first act was "The Act of Supremacy" which once again separated the Church of England from Rome and the Pope. The second act was the "Act of Uniformity" which created the basic framework for the modern protestant Church of England which exists today.[27] The Church of England would continue to evolve over the years, and 27 years later John Tillotson would be born.
Life of John Tillotson
Early Life and Education
John Tillotson was born in a small village Sowerby, Yorkshire during 1630. [28][29] However very little is known about his early childhood other than the fact that his father was a Puritan clothier named Robert Tillotson. The fact that Tillotson grew up under a Puritan father would have distanced him from Catholics at an early age and develop a strong sense of religion. His mother, Mary Tillotson, was known for her great virtue but it was said that she "became unhappy for many years of her life in her loss of understanding".[30] This suggests Mary may have had some kind of mental illness unable to be diagnosed properly at the time. Tillotson was said to have received his early education from his father Robert before attending grammar school.[31] The next commonly acknowledged event in Tillotson's life is his studies at Clare Hall, Cambridge where he would become a fellow and graduate with his bachelors of the arts in 1650.[32] He went on to receive his masters of the arts in 1654.[33]
Early Religious Career
Tillotson was ordained into the Church of England in 1661.[34] He would begin his preaching career at Lincon's Inn in London.[35] Later in 1664 he became a preacher at St. Lawrence Jewry where he would gain notice for his talents giving sermons.[36] In 1661 Tillotson would attend the Savory Conference which was aimed at reconciling the different religious groups in England at the time.[37] This occurred shortly before the act of uniformity united the Church of England in 1662.[38] Tillotson agreed to the act of uniformity, but it is important to note that many of his mentors would refuse.[39] Tillotson would also be married in St. Lawrence Jewry during the year 1664 to Elizabeth French the niece of Oliver Cromwell a man who had been the monarch in England from 1653-1658.[40] In the 1660's Tillotson had developed a great zeal against the Catholic Church in Rome and published a work titled "Rule of Faith" in response to recent works from Rome.[41]
Dean of Canterbury
Tillotson became the Dean of Canterbury by the order of Charles II in 1672.[42] In 1676 John Tillotson's brother, Joshua Tillotson, would die suddenly and Tillotson would dispatch Timothy Bentley to inform his father Robert of his passing.[43] It was at this time that Tillotson published "A Discourse Against Transubstantiation" and "A Discourse Against Purgatory" in 1685.[44] By the year 1689 Tillotson had confidence with English Monarchs William and Mary, and preached directly to them on two occasions including one at Hampton Court Palace.[45] Tillotson was also appointed Clerk of the closet to the king in this time.[46]
Dean of St. Paul's
Appointed by William and Mary, Tillotson became the Dean of St. Paul's Cathedral in 1689.[47] It is important to know however that St. Paul's Cathedral had been destroyed in the "Great Fire of 1666" and the new St. Paul's would not be completed until 1697 three years after Tillotson's death. William Sancroft, Tillotson's predecessor, as Dean of St. Paul's was mainly responsible for beginning the process of the new cathedral's construction as he was Dean during the "Great Fire". However it is unclear as to what extent John Tillotson played a role in the rebuilding process in his two year stint as Dean.
Archbishop of Canterbury
Tillotson became the Archbishop of Canterbury in 1691 appointed by William and Mary after the suspension and deprivation of his predecessor William Sancroft.[48] The reason Sandcroft was deprived as his role was that he refused to acknowledge William and Mary as Monarchs after the "Glorious Revolution" in 1688. Jonh Tillotson would serve in this position leading the Church of England until his death.
Death and Legacy
John Tillotson died on November 18th, 1694 when he suddenly became ill and was aware but having trouble speaking.[49] His funeral was held at St. Lawrence Jewry is now buried in the Church in London. At his funeral it was remarked by English monarch William III that Tillotson "had the brightest thoughts and the most correct style of all our divines, and was esteemed the best preacher of his age."[50] After his death Tillotson's work, mostly sermons, were compiled into three volumes by Ralph Baker.[51] Tillotson's wife sold the sermons for enough wealth to live out her life no longer having John to provide for her.
