Document Summary
Just as henry was abolishing the monasteries, his relative reginald pole was elevated to the status of cardinal by pope paul iii. This made pole a powerful opponent of the henrician reforms. He wielded much influence from the continent: henry in 1538. 1538 was also a big year for henry. In 1539, the great bible included many of tyndale"s translations. It was allowed for use in english churches: pole on the continent. On the continent, pole continued to agitate for communion between england and the rest of. In response, henry had several members of pole"s family killed. This included his mother margaret: henry in 1538-47. Henry continues his own idiosyncratic versions of reform. By his death in 1547, he would have married anne of cleves. What made the henrician reforms so odd was that he didn"t really agree with any of the factions on the continent.
