Hi Everyone, Back from a business trip and some part time research of a family member of the Carmelite Church came across this. Anyone got a long memory to tell me what LOLLARDY is? I don't want to catch it - just an explanation. <John Beverley, priest, condemned for lollardy and hanged, > <drawn and quartered at St. Gile's Field, London in 1414. > Regards Shona http://www.cave-kids.com

Lollardy- `Lollard' was a name given to anyone associated with heresy in late medieval England. From the 1380s the church authorities gradually defined more tightly what counted as correct belief (orthodoxy). Heresy (or heterodoxy) was holding beliefs or participating in practices that contravened the teaching of the church. hope this helps a bit Donna ----- Original Message ----- From: "cave-kids" <shona@cave-kids.com> To: <ENG-EAST-ANGLIA-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, August 06, 2001 12:53 PM Subject: [EEA] Interpretation > Hi Everyone, > Back from a business trip and some part time research of a > family member of the Carmelite Church came across this. > Anyone got a long memory to tell me what LOLLARDY is? > I don't want to catch it - just an explanation.
