Hugh Latimer's famous words of consolation to Nicholas Ridley as they are both about to be burnt alive for heresy come from John Foxe's\u003cbr\u003emagisterial \u003cem\u003eActs and Monuments\u003c\/em\u003e, popularly known as the \u003cem\u003eBook of Martyrs\u003c\/em\u003e. This vast collection of unforgettable accounts of religious persecution exerted as great an influence on early modern England and New England as the Bible and the Book of Common Prayer. It contains many stirring stories of the\u003cbr\u003eapprehension, interrogation, imprisonment, and execution of alleged heretics. Based on a new transcription of the last edition overseen by John Foxe, this new edition includes a full introduction to Foxe and his times, the religious conflicts, and the nature of martyrological narratives. The text\u003cbr\u003eis further enhanced by 21 of the original woodcut illustrations, glossaries of people, places, and words, a general index, and notes explaining allusions and identifying scriptural quotations. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Series: \u003c\/strong\u003e For over 100 years\u003cstrong\u003e Oxford World's Classics\u003c\/strong\u003e has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.
