The Lollards of the Chiltern Hills: Glimpses of English Dissent in the Middle Ages is a historical book written by William Henry Summers and published in 1906. The book explores the history of the Lollards, a religious movement that emerged in England in the 14th century and challenged the established Catholic Church. The Lollards were known for their beliefs in the importance of reading the Bible in English and the rejection of certain Catholic practices such as the veneration of saints and the use of indulgences. Summers examines the origins of the Lollards, their beliefs, and their impact on English society during the Middle Ages. He focuses on the Chiltern Hills, a region in southern England where the Lollard movement was particularly strong. The book also provides insights into the political and social context of the time, including the role of the English monarchy and the influence of the Church.Overall, The Lollards of the Chiltern Hills offers a fascinating glimpse into a lesser-known aspect of English history and provides valuable insights into the development of religious dissent in the Middle Ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
