The Oxford History of Life Writing: Volume 2. Early Modern
The Oxford History of Life-Writing: Volume2. Early Modern explores life-writing in England between 1500 and 1700, and argues that this was a period which saw remarkable innovations in biography, autobiography, and diary-keeping that laid the foundations for our modern life-writing.

The English Reformation banished the saints' lives that dominated the writings of medieval Catholicism,...

He failed ultimately to satisfy the Tudor authorities about the compatibility of his allegiances and paid with his life.
