The English Reformation
Henry VIII’s marriage problems and his failure
to secure an annulment for his first marriage
were obviously key in his decision to change
the Religion in England in 1533. But
subsequently under the influence of more
Protestant advisors monasteries were
dissolved and the Bible was translated into
English for the first time. However this was a
far as Henry intended the changes to go.
Churches remained richly decorated and
services were conducted in Latin.
