The Post-Dissolution Lives of Monastic Buildings in England and Wales and the Reception of Reformation in the Sixteenth Century

我的研究将通过分析修道院建筑和庄园被解散后的处理方式，重新评估修道院解散及其接受的关键方面。学术界已经从宗教改革时期宗教变革的叙述中排除了解散的许多实际方面，关于它的写作在很大程度上仍然关注政府中心的动机和策略。我的研究重新关注在这一戏剧性的变化时期，宫廷圈子以下的人们所从事的谈判，将修道院的解散重新塑造为一个渐进和谈判接受重大宗教，社会和建筑变化的过程。修道院空间的重新占用被压倒性地描述为教堂或修道院到庄园的急剧转换-当这种转换发生时，我提出的原始材料的主体提供了机会，以证明领土，空间和基础设施的重新同化和再利用比都铎庄园的完全破坏性解散或历史的愿景更具适应性和创造性。这反过来又通过强调对这一过程的各种反应来告知解散的历史。

My research will re-evaluate key aspects of the Dissolution of the Monasteries and its receptionby analysing the treatment of monastic buildings and estates after they were dissolved.Scholarship has excluded many practical aspects of the Dissolution from narratives of religiouschange in the Reformation period, and writing on it remains largely concerned with motivationsand strategies at the centre of government. My research refocuses attention on the negotiationsthat people below court circles engaged in during this dramatic period of change, refashioning theDissolution of the Monasteries as a process of gradual and negotiated acceptance of significantreligious, social, and architectural change. The re-occupation of monastic space hasoverwhelmingly been portrayed as the drastic conversion of churches or of cloisters into manorhouses - while such conversions occurred, my proposed body of source material presentsopportunities to demonstrate that the re-assimilation and reuse of territory, space, andinfrastructure was more adaptive and creative than the vision of a wholly destructive Dissolutionor histories of the Tudor manor house might suggest. This in turn informs histories of theDissolution by highlighting the variety of responses to the process.
