Being A Reply To Martin Mar-Prelate, With An Introduction And Notes (1844)

""Pap With A Hatchet: Being A Reply To Martin Mar-Prelate, With An Introduction And Notes"" is a book written by John Lyly and published in 1844. The book is a response to Martin Mar-Prelate, a pseudonym used by a group of Puritan writers who published a series of controversial pamphlets attacking the Church of England in the late 16th century. Lyly's book is written in the form of a dialogue between two characters, Philopur and Philalethes, who debate the issues raised by Mar-Prelate's pamphlets. The title of the book refers to a quote from Mar-Prelate's pamphlets, in which he describes the Anglican Church as ""pap with a hatchet"" - meaning that it is like pap (baby food) that has been chopped up with a hatchet (a crude tool).Lyly's response argues that the Church of England is not as corrupt as Mar-Prelate suggests, and that the Puritans' criticisms are based on misunderstandings and misrepresentations of Church doctrine. The book includes an introduction and notes by the editor, providing historical context and explaining the references and allusions in the text.Overall, ""Pap With A Hatchet"" is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the religious and political debates of the late Elizabethan era, and provides insight into the arguments and counter-arguments of the Church of England and its opponents.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
