William Laud Books
William Laud was an English archbishop and academic who served as Archbishop of Canterbury from 1633 until his arrest in 1640. He was known for his autocratic approach to church polity, enforcing a set of rules for uniform worship in England and Wales known as Laudianism, which presaged later High Church views. Theologically, he was accused of Arminianism, opposition to Calvinism, and covertly favoring Roman Catholic doctrines, making him a formidable opponent to Puritans. Laud also favored scholars, was a major collector of manuscripts, and pursued ecumenical contacts with the Greek Orthodox Church.
