Document Summary
Archbishop reginald cardinal pole for his part died shortly after mary did in 1558. To the end of his life, he strove to rebuild the connections between england and the catholic. Elizabeth would soon sever this: pole and paul iv. The aged pole would lose favour with a new pope. He was also known as gian pietro carafa. Paul was opposed to the plans of the spanish crown. This made him an enemy of philip ii: pole"s downfall. As a result, pole, the great defender of the papacy was undone by his defense of the spanish crown by way of his support of queen mary. His gains under mary"s reign thus gave way to the incoming anglican tradition: anglicanism. Anglicanism would preserve many traditional elements of christianity. A the same time since the king or queen remained its head, the english church stayed out of communion with rome: an ecumenical observation.
