The Protestant Revolution - The Godly Family

Four-part documentary series in which historian Tristram Hunt explores the scientific, cultural, economic and political aspects of Protestantism. He looks at how Protestantism replaced the Catholic veneration of celibacy with a devotion to family life - from Martin Luther as the loving husband and father to the first Protestant Archbishop of Canterbury with his modern idea of marriage. Plus, the contradictory legacy of Protestantism, with its sexual equality but virulent patriarchy.
