John Strype

John Strype , 1643-1737, English ecclesiastical historian and biographer. A graduate of Cambridge, he took holy orders. Much of his early life was spent in collecting old charters, letters, and various documents, mostly of the Tudor period. Later he used these in his cumbersome but valuable works. These include the Annals of the Reformation (2 parts, 1708-9) and biographies of Thomas Cranmer (2 parts, 1694), John Aylmer (1701), Sir John Cheke (1705), Edmund Grindal (1710), Matthew Parker (1711), and John Whitgift (2 parts, 1717-18).

Bibliography: See biography by A. P. Wire (1902).

Strype, John (1643–1737), English Church historian. His works deal mainly with the Reformation period. They include Memorials of Thomas Cranmer (1694) and Annals of the Reformation in England (1709–31). The wealth of documentation on which they are based renders them valuable, despite bad arrangement and frequent errors.
