520 |a This essay examines the nexus of religious controversy and English nationalism in the work of a group of historians and textual scholars employed by Archbishop Parker in the 1560s and 1570s. These scholars were engaged in editing and publishing documents of medieval ecclesiastical history; their work was dedicated to demonstrating the fidelity of Anglican practices to those of the ancient English church. Tracing the activities of Parker and his historians from their collecting of manuscripts to their handling of them in the preparation and editing of the printed editions, I argue that this polemical scholarship set out to reform the English past by reforming its texts, purging them of the "corruptions" of Catholic writers, readers, and scholars. In this way, Parker's textual and editorial practice endeavored to construct a purified past to testify to the truth of the English present.
