St Paul's Cathedral

Stories from St Paul's: The Most Dangerous Book in England


Listen Later

This is the story of one small book, a book that would become known as the most dangerous book in England: Priest and scholar William Tyndale’s New Testament, translated from Hebrew and Greek into English in 1526. Discover how this work – one of three surviving copies in existence – in the collection of the St Paul’s Library, challenged established religious and political power and authority, and made the Bible accessible to ordinary people in England for the first time, and how Tyndale’s legacy changed the religious, political and literary landscape forever.
Produced and presented by Douglas Anderson.
