Reformation ParliamentReformation Parliament• In 1529, Parliament convened for what would be a

seven year session.– Legislation passed that eventually put the clergy under the

authority of the king.– In January 1531, the king was made officially the head of the

church in England.– 1532, published official grievances against the church.– 1534, ended all payments to Rome and gave Henry sole

jurisdiction over ecclesiastical appointments.– The same year, the Act of Supremacy declared Henry “the

only supreme head of the Church of England.”

accompanied their rejection of the Medieval tendency to degrade women as temptresses or exalt them as virgins. Instead, they praised women as mothers and housewives.

as men did.– However, wives remained subject to their

husbands.
