# Middle English 2

English Language: AQA A Level, topic 3.6.4

## Religion and the Catholic Church

During this period, the Catholic Church held a great deal of power and authority, but still conducted much of their business and services in Latin.

### The Catholic Church

![The Catholic Church](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-07/ef5eb95e-b356-49c2-ac21-96bdbce4cb09/Pope-rome-catholic-Church-.jpg)

- The important thing to note for this period is that the power and authority comes from the Catholic Church, and as such, there is a great emphasis on religion.
- Indeed, this period is often characterised by the battle for the language of the Bible.

### Wycliffe

![Wycliffe](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-07/bc3bd1b1-420a-4eb2-9bbb-e3efd312f401/catholic%20priest.jpg)

- At the start of the period the Bible and sermons were conducted in Latin, which wasn’t much use to the non-Latin speaking English people.
- Around 1380, John Wycliffe translated the Bible from Latin to English. 
- This was ground-breaking work at this time. 
- Wycliffe had a team of men who travelled round the country to tell people about the Bible and to dispense them.

### Issues

![Issues](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-07/944f7528-407a-4b94-8d7c-5b257b1be2e4/catholic-teaching.jpg)

- There were, however, a few issues with this. 
- In terms of readability, Wycliffe translated word-for-word, maintaining the Latin syntax which isn’t the same as English syntax. 
- In terms of legality, the Catholic Church banned the Bible and order its destruction as well as the arrest of Wycliffe and his associates. 
- The Catholic Church were that angry with Wycliffe that they ordered that his remains were to be dug up and burned.

### Tyndale

![Tyndale](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-08/8ec6ae0d-4a6b-4dc0-83e9-67117fe9a010/nun-church-catholic-.jpg)

- In the early 1500s, we see the emergence of another new Bible, this time, translated by William Tyndale. 
- In writing his translation, he embedded rhythmic and simplistic phrases. 
- His Bible was still banned, but was very effective.
- It became most effective following Henry VIII’s move to Christianity, in which he wanted an English Bible.

### The King James Bible

![The King James Bible](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-09/ee44f0a1-01ec-416e-8c42-1cff26f95cd8/book-bible-.jpg)

- Tyndale’s Bible was in popular (but not full) use until King James ordered the creation of a standardised Bible. 
- 85% of Tyndale’s translation made it into the King James Version.

### Writing the KJV

![Writing the KJV](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-09/b9a3c72b-705f-4878-9439-b6a3a2247118/child-bible-bed-.jpg)

- The KJV was designed to sound archaic to make it sound like it spoke from experience and knowledge.
- It was also designed with many pieces of rhetoric so that when read aloud, phrases became engrained in the heads of listeners – it was very much written to be read aloud. 
- It is still the version in use today.

## Orthography and Pronunciation

Aside from Biblical developments, other advances were being made in the written mode during this time.

### Henry V

![Henry V](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-08/e3a65421-eda1-462e-b842-4fb6a88dce66/letter-mail-post.jpg)

- Henry V started writing letters home from the war in English – a move not previously taken by monarchs.
- Following this, the Signet Office (the people who published all the King’s official documents) starting using English in publications.

### Orthography

![Orthography](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-09/04098ef2-4f10-4009-b0c9-dbd54037b7f0/old-letters-.jpg)

- However, this did cause an issue because the dialects and orthography (spelling system) of English were pre-standardisation and so very different from each other.
- From this point, we start in motion the process of standardisation. 
- The Chancery (the civil service of the time) decided that verbs like ‘hath’ and ‘doth’ should stop being used and that the first person singular pronoun should be ‘I’.

### Standardisation

![Standardisation](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-08/b8a50c91-d3b6-4b50-a1d3-590674dae798/thought-light-bulb-bubble-.jpg)

- Around this time, there were two groups of people with ideas about how English should construct its orthography. 
- The traditionalists wanted to spell in ways that we had always spelt and the reformers who wanted to spell things how they were pronounced – the traditionalists won this battle. 
- French words were adapted to appear more Latinate and words like ‘rhyme’ were given the  to match words like ‘rhythm’.

### The Great Vowel Shift

![The Great Vowel Shift](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-11/a981843d-de9c-414e-9620-12d0d554a18b/dispersed-settlement-spread-out-iceland-house-abandoned-remote-mountain-.jpg)

- Orthography wasn’t the only thing that was changing. An event called ‘The Great Vowel Shift’ changed the way English words were pronounced.
- Over a number of years, we changed where we articulated long vowels, moving from the front of the mouth, to the back of the mouth. 
- For example, we used to pronounce ‘house’ as ‘hoose’. Short vowels were not affected by this.

## The Printing Press

Perhaps the most important invention of the time was the printing press.

### The printing press

![The printing press](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-08/2cab83d7-a047-4490-bdf0-ce2e662f6d26/printing-press-print-.jpg)

- Perhaps the most important invention of the time was the printing press. 
- Originally formed in Germany by Johannes Gutenberg, the printing press allowed for many copies of a document to be quickly and cheaply produced – much easier than monks writing out everything by hand.

### William Caxton

![William Caxton](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-09/a301223d-3a2f-402d-b4a8-3e8cfc5eefd2/books.jpg)

- William Caxton brought the printing press to England (he DID NOT invent it!). 
- He published many famous works, most notably, Chaucer’s ‘The Canterbury Tales’.

### End of Middle English

![End of Middle English](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2018-04/a459fe04-76be-4ac8-83d3-ebd1cc612366/shutterstock_135114548.jpg)

- Caxton (and his workers) chose which spelling variations to publish and as such, made a massive contribution to the way we spell things today. 
- The opening of the printing press in London (in 1476) effectively symbolises the end of Middle English.
