2018 Reprint of 1926 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. The Actes and Monuments, popularly known as Fox's Book of Martyrs, is a work of Protestant history and martyrology by John Foxe, first published in English in 1563 by John Day. It includes a Protestant account of the sufferings of Protestants under the Catholic Church, with particular emphasis on England and Scotland. The book was highly influential in those countries and helped shape lasting popular notions of Catholicism there. The book went through four editions in Foxe's lifetime and as well as a number of later editions and abridgements, including some that specifically reduced the text to a Book of Martyrs. Published early in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of England, only five years after the death of the Roman Catholic Queen Mary, the work is an affirmation of the Protestant Reformation in England during the ongoing period of religious conflict between Catholics and Protestants.
