Jewel, John

Jewel, John
(1522–71)
   Bishop and Theologian.
   Jewel was educated at the University of Oxford where he was influenced by the reformer peter martyr. During the reign of Queen mary, he fled to Frankfurt, where he defended the moderate 1552 Prayer Book against the radical John knox. Later he travelled to Strasbourg and Zürich. He was appointed Bishop of Salisbury by Queen Elizabeth I and proved to be a conscientious Bishop. He was the author of Apologia pro Ecclesia Anglicana, a defence of the Church of England against the Church of Rome. The book was officially approved by Archbishop bancroft in the reign of King James i and was influential on the work of Richard hooker.
