Edmund Bonner, Bishop of London (1500-1569): A Figure of Religious Intolerance and Persecution This evocative image depicts Edmund Bonner, Bishop of London, a prominent figure in English religious history known for his unyielding stance against religious dissenters. The date, spanning from 1500 to 1569, marks the time when Bonner wielded significant power and influence during the tumultuous religious changes in Tudor England. Bonner's image, with his episcopal hands raised, is a chilling reminder of the harsh measures he employed against those who dared to challenge the established religious order. In this scene, he is shown physically punishing a dissenter, an act that underscores his unrelenting intolerance and the severity of the religious climate during his tenure. Born in London, Bonner rose through the ranks of the Church of England, serving as Bishop of London from 1559 to 1563, and later as Bishop of London and Lord Chancellor from 1559 to 1563 and again from 1564 to 1569. His time in office was marked by his unwavering commitment to the Catholic faith, which put him at odds with the Protestant reforms being advocated by King Edward VI and his advisors. Bonner's most infamous act of persecution was the "Bishops' Babes" controversy, where he ordered the imprisonment and forced conversion of Protestant children, separating them from their families. This controversial policy, which was widely criticized, further fueled the religious tensions that would ultimately lead to the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and the more tolerant religious climate that followed. This image, with its stark depiction of Bonner's harshness, serves as a poignant reminder of the religious upheaval and intolerance that marked Tudor England during the late 16th century.
