Two Tudor historians here provide some of the first evidence of the reassessment of this period, a reassessment started by G.R. Elton some 30 years ago. They consider Thomas Cromwell's role in the Reformation; changes in the theory and practice of justice; the functions of the King's Council; the problematic nature of contemporary interpretation of scripture as authority for action; and the intellectual origins and influence of English Humanism.
