EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the solemn and controversial event of exhuming the body of John Wickliff, a prominent figure in English history. The image is an illustration from Acts and Monuments by John Foxe, dating back to 1684. John Wickliff was not just an ordinary man; he was an influential philosopher, theologian, translator, and reformer who challenged the authority of the Roman Catholic Church during his lifetime. However, even after his death in 1384, his ideas continued to inspire dissent among religious circles. In 1428, forty-four years after Wickliff's passing, his remains were dug up from their resting place in Lutterworth. The Council of Constance declared him a heretic posthumously and ordered that his bones be burned as punishment for his beliefs. This macabre act aimed to erase any trace of Wickliff's teachings and discourage others from following in his footsteps. The image showcases the process with intricate detail: a group of individuals carefully lifting Wickliff's coffin while flames engulf nearby bones. It serves as a stark reminder of the power struggle between religious authorities and those who dared challenge their doctrines. This photograph print offers viewers a glimpse into this dark chapter in history when dissenters faced persecution even beyond their graves. It stands as a testament to John Wickliff's enduring impact on society and reminds us that ideas can transcend time long after one's physical presence has faded away.
