The reigns of Edward VI and Mary: Key Words

Questão	Responda
Martin Luther	Luther led the protest movement in Germany that started what we know as the Reformation. He criticised the practices of the Catholic Church and argued for some changes in religious belief.
John Calvin	Protestant reformer who developed more extreme ideas than Luther, in particular about some being predestined by God to be saved. Calvin also moved further away from the Catholic view of the Eucharist than Luther had done. The bread and wine were symbols but spirit of Christ was still present. Followers in Scotland were Presbyterians.
Counter reformation	An offensive against Protestantism, taken by the Catholic Church centred on Rome. Started with the Council of Trent which first met in 1545. Catholic doctrines were restated in order to provide clear arguments against Protestant doctrines. Jesuits and the Inquisition were trained to convert people back to Catholicism.
Metrical psalms	Psalms translated into English poetry and set to hymn tunes.
Book of rates	All goods leaving the country were taxed and the income passed to the Crown as part of ordinary revenues. The Book of Rates (1558) set out the level of tax on a wide range of products but had not been updated since the beginning of Henry VIII's reign. Updating rates was to treble Crown income from custom duties but provoked hostility from the merchant community because the cloth market had just collapsed.
