Thomas Cranmer war eine Schlüsselfigur der englischen Reformation und Erzbischof von Canterbury. Er übte erheblichen Einfluss auf die religiöse Landschaft Englands aus und prägte maßgeblich dessen protestantische Identität. Seine Arbeit konzentrierte sich auf die Entwicklung und Veröffentlichung grundlegender volkssprachlicher liturgischer Texte, die den englischen protestantischen Gottesdienst über Generationen hinweg definierten. Cranmers Mut und seine Entschlossenheit, auch angesichts von Verfolgung zu seinen Überzeugungen zu stehen, festigen sein Erbe als entscheidender Führer der religiösen und politischen Reform.
