recusancy. Refusal to submit to authority, and especially refusal to attend the services of the established C of E. Though used particularly of RC recusants, it was also applied to Protestant
Separatists. Until the Pope excommunicated
Elizabeth I in 1570, recusancy had been rare, since conservative religious elements had received no clear instruction about their attitude to the Establishment. It received a powerful impetus with the arrival of
Jesuits and other priests from the Continent
c.1580. Elizabethan and Jacobean statesmen regarded it as a dangerous problem because of its tenacious roots throughout the social structure of some regions, e.g. in the North of England. The small recusant minority preserved the continuity of RC practice in England. See also
