Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cambridge University Transactions During the Puritan Controversies of the 16th and 17th Centuries, Vol. 1 of 2
The documents contained in the present volumes belong to a period of great importance in the history of the Uni versity of Cambridge; and they relate to almost every part of its internal government and external privileges. They commence with the University Statutes of 1570 intended to check the rising power of Puritanism, - and they terminate with the Act of Uniformity of 1662, and the diary of the Rev. Dr. Worthington, who was ejected, in 1660 from the Mastership of Jesus College, Cambridge.
