The Marprelate Tracts

Dissatisfied with the conservative establishment of the Anglican Church, a group of Puritans writing under the pseudonym 'Martin Marprelate' began publishing a series of scathing pamphlets directed at the Church leadership. The Bishops of Country, according to these writers, are proud, popish, presumptuous, profane, paltry, pestilent, and pernicious prelates who usurp authority from God.
These tracts have garnered public attention and risk making a mockery of the Establishment lest something be done about them.
