Status and wealth, power and fame: St. Thomas More had them all. As a wise and
popular statesman, internationally recognized scholar, and Lord Chancellor of
England, More was perhaps the most highly respected Englishman of his day until
his conscience required that he lay down his life for his Catholic faith.
A
generation ago, the American Catholic novelist John Edward Beahn retold More's
life story as a biographical novel, A Man Born Again: A Novel Based on the Life
of St. Thomas More, published in 1954. Making ample use of the rich historical
records of sixteenth-century England, Beahn lays out the convoluted political
landscape of the period, which set the scene for the disastrous efforts of King
Henry VIII to divorce his queen and marry his mistress—while demanding
that the Church grant him sanction for his immorality.
Alongside the political complexities, Beahn traces the development of More's
interior landscape. Family conflicts, vocational perplexities, personal tragedies,
and forthright acquaintances all played their part in shaping his soul. These
influences, converging with the political developments that relentlessly pressed
in on him, forged a remarkable character that combined brilliant intellect,
moral integrity, and deep devotion to Christ and His Church.
In the end, More chose to give his life rather than compromise his convictions under coercion from the state. No doubt a second generation of readers will welcome this TAN Legend edition of A Man Born Again: A Novel Based on the Life of St. Thomas More , as twenty-first-century political trends call for heroic Catholic resistance to government assault upon the Church.
