Gilbert Wright, The Gospeller: A Tale Of The Lollards is a historical novel written by Frederick Somner Merryweather and originally published in 1877. The book is set in England during the 15th century and tells the story of Gilbert Wright, a young man who becomes a follower of the Lollard movement, a religious group that challenged the authority of the Catholic Church.The novel explores the political and religious turmoil of the time, as the Lollards faced persecution and violence from both the Church and the state. Gilbert’s journey takes him from his humble beginnings as a farmer’s son to becoming a passionate advocate for Lollard beliefs, as he struggles to reconcile his faith with the harsh realities of life in medieval England.Merryweather’s novel is a vivid portrayal of the Lollard movement, which played a significant role in the Protestant Reformation that swept through Europe in the 16th century. The book offers a glimpse into the lives of ordinary people who challenged the established order and fought for their beliefs, despite the dangers they faced.Overall, Gilbert Wright, The Gospeller: A Tale Of The Lollards is a compelling historical novel that brings to life a fascinating period in English history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the Reformation, religious history, or medieval England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
