Edmund Saint Campion's 'Ten Reasons Proposed to His Adversaries for Disputation in the Name of the Faith' is a profound and intellectually stimulating work that delves into the intricacies of the Catholic faith during a time of religious turmoil. Written in a persuasive and logical style reminiscent of classical rhetoric, Campion presents ten compelling reasons defending the teachings of Catholicism against its adversaries, offering a unique insight into the theological debates of the era. This book is a valuable resource for scholars of religious history and those interested in understanding the intellectual foundations of the Catholic faith. Edmund Saint Campion, a Jesuit priest and renowned theologian, was a key figure in the Counter-Reformation and known for his eloquent defense of Catholic doctrine. His profound knowledge and unwavering faith led him to engage in scholarly debates and intellectual discourse, making significant contributions to the Catholic intellectual tradition. I highly recommend 'Ten Reasons Proposed to His Adversaries for Disputation in the Name of the Faith' to readers who seek a deeper understanding of Catholic theology and its defense in the face of opposition. Campion's erudite arguments and eloquent writing make this book a must-read for anyone interested in the history of religious thought.

The death of Edmund Campion in 1581 marked a disjunction between the world of printed untruth and private, handwritten, truth in early modern England. Gerard Kilroy traces the circulation of manuscripts connected with Campion to reveal a fascinating network that not only stretched from the Court to Warwickshire and East Anglia but also crossed the confessional boundaries. Kilroy shows that in this intricate web Sir John Harington was a key figure, using his disguise as a wit to conceal a lifelong dedication to Campion's memory. Sir Thomas Tresham is shown as expressing his devotion to Campion both in his coded buildings and in a previously unpublished manuscript, Bodleian MS Eng. th. b. 1-2, whose theological and cultural riches are here fully explored. This book provides startling new views about Campion's literary, historical and cultural impact in early modern England. The great strength of this study is its exploitation of archival manuscript sources, offering the first printed text and translation of Campion's Virgilian epic, a fully collated text of 'Why doe I use my paper, ynke and pen', and Harington's four decades of theological epigrams, printed for the first time in the order he so carefully designed. Edmund Campion: Memory and Transcription lays the foundations of the first full literary assessment of Campion the scholar, the impact he had on the literature of early modern England, and the long legacy in manuscript writing.

Gerard Kilroy here draws on newly discovered manuscript sources to reveal Campion as a charismatic and affectionate scholar who was finding fulfilment as priest and teacher in Prague when he was summoned to lead the first Jesuit mission to England. The book offers fresh insights into the dramatic search for Campion, the populist nature of the disputations in the Tower, and the legal issues raised by his torture. It was the monarchical republic itself that made him the beloved ‘champion’ of the English Catholic community. Edmund Campion presents the most detailed and comprehensive picture to date of an historical figure whose loyalty and courage, in the trial and on the scaffold, swiftly became legendary across Europe.

His work provides startling new views about Campion's literary, historical and cultural impact in early modern England. The book lays the foundations of the first full literary assessment of Campion the scholar, the impact he had on the literature of early modern England, and the long legacy in manuscript writing.
