• Résumé : MS 114, now split into two parts (MS 114A and MS 114B), contains a large collection of letters written to or by Matthew Parker (1504-1575). His diverse career included serving as the dean of the Suffolk college of Stoke by Clare; as one of Anne Boleyn's chaplains and, after her fall, as one of the king's chaplains; as master of Corpus Christi College and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cambridge; and, after an enforced period of seclusion during the reign of Mary, as archbishop of Canterbury. Just as this broad career is reflected across the Parker Library collection as a whole, much of it is reflected here in a microcosm of letters. The manuscript dates to the sixteenth century.
