Fisher of men
a life of John Fisher, 1469-1535
by Maria Dowling
"John Fisher was central to the issues and dilemmas of the renaissance and the reformation in Tudor England. Active as a humanist, preacher, bishop, educationalist and controversial theologian, Fisher demonstrated the rich life of the pre-reformation church as well as its problems in confronting the 'blind and disordered desire' of Henry VIII. For Fisher, as for Thomas More, this resulted in execution on Tower Hill."--BOOK JACKET.
"This study focuses on Fisher's wide-ranging pastoral, scholarly, literary and political activity, which makes him a key figure in European religious and cultural history."--BOOK JACKET.
