This book reassesses the religious politics of Elizabethan England through a study of one of its most unusual figures. Sir Christopher Hatton, a royal favourite turned senior minister, was unique among Elizabeth' s leading ministers in being a consistent supporter of English Catholics and perhaps even some kind of Catholic himself. His influence over the queen was a significant factor in restraining the policy preferences of Elizabeth' s more strongly Protestant advisors, particularly as regards the regime' s religious policy. The book traces Hatton' s life and career, his relationship with Elizabeth, his networks and his involvement in politics. It argues that Hatton' s career casts doubt on claims that Elizabeth' s regime was exclusively Protestant in character and suggests that Catholics and Catholic sympathisers retained a voice in Elizabethan politics.
