It is striking how these early accounts of conviction and courage still shape our understanding of history.

A powerful reminder of what people have endured for their beliefs.

This week in my news #Substack essay, I write about John Foxe. It's been a long time since I've written on this subject so this is very much a re-introduction! open.substack.com/pub/historyc... #history #johnfoxe #martyrology

John Foxe wrote the Acts and Monuments in the Elizabethan era, depicting the Protestants who had died for their faith and rearranging history into a more suitable narrative for the new religion.

John Foxe offered his readings various ways to 'read' his Book of Martyrs, even when they were unable to actually read themselves. Find out more in this examination of Zollinger's article on the subject open.substack.com/pub/historyc... #history #16thcentury #johnfoxe #bookhistory

In this essay I travel back 20 years to notes that I took on an article about strategies employed by John Foxe to support different levels of literacy in his readers.
