This text investigates how Syon Abbey responded to the religious turbulence of the 1520s and 1530s. It examines the 11 books 3 brothers had printed during this period and argues that the Bridgettines used vernacular printing to engage with religious and political developments that threatened their understanding of orthodox faith.
