              1. against divorce, Royal Supremacy and Anne Boleyn
                1. both groups are highly respected and dominant in London
                  1. both spoke out against divorce and supremacy - they are both punished
                    1. Franciscans - 7 monasteries closed down in 1535, 18 are starved to death and all monasteries closed by 1539
                      1. more stubborn monks are imprisoned - 30 out of 200 died in prison
                      2. Carthusians - many are executed, 6 in 1535, 18 are starved to death - all monasteries closed down by 1539
                        1. The way Henry treated the Friars created his tyrant image
                        2. Bishop Fisher
                          1. only Bishop to get executed
                            1. Fisher was a strong supporter of Catherine and Papal Supremacy
                              1. He was Bishop of Rochester - poorest bishopric in England, showed he was holy
                                1. Henry started to dislike him because he was outspoken about the divorce
                                  1. 1533/34 - he supported the Holy Maid of Kent, he was mentioned in the charge against her - threat
                                    1. he was fined £300 but not executed - it's hard to execute a bishop

                                              1. caused outrage in Europe
                                            3. Sir Thomas More
                                              1. he puzzled historians - saint or sinner?
