Summary "For the Faith: A Story of the Young Pioneers of Reformation in Oxford" by Evelyn Everett-Green is a historical novel set during the tumultuous period of the Reformation in the early 16th century. The book focuses on the lives of young scholars in Oxford as they grapple with the conflicting ideologies of the Catholic Church and the emerging Protestant movement,personified through characters such as John Clarke and Anthony Dalaber. The narrative highlights their struggles to uphold their beliefs amidst societal pressures, while also exploring themes of faith, courage, and the quest for truth. The opening of the story introduces a group of scholars, including John Clarke, who articulates the argument for allowing individuals to read the Scriptures in their native tongue. As they discuss the implications of Martin Luther's writings and the violent reactions from the Church, we meet Anthony Dalaber, who is drawn to the pursuit of reform and grapples with his burgeoning feelings for Freda Langton, the daughter of a respected scholar. The budding romance between Dalaber and Freda, along with the pressures faced by the group as they defiantly seek to challenge ecclesiastical authority, sets the stage for the unfolding drama of faith and rebellion against oppression during this pivotal moment in history.
