Thomas Sampson Born c. 1517 England Died 1589 Occupation Theologian Thomas Sampson (c. 1517-1589) was an English Puritan theologian. A Marian exile, he was one of the Geneva Bible translators. On his return to England, he had trouble with conformity to the Anglican practices. With Laurence Humphrey, he played a leading part in the vestments controversy, a division along religious party lines in the early years of the reign of Elizabeth I of England. Contents 1 Life 2 Elizabethan era 3 References 4 Notes // Life He was educated at Pembroke Hall, Cambridge.[1] In 1547 he joined the Inner Temple. After his conversion to Protestantism in 1551, he became rector of All Hallows, Bread Street, London.[2] In 1552 he was made Dean of Chichester.[3] He married a niece of Hugh Latimer;[4] Latimer and Sampson influenced the conversion of John Bradford, a Marian Protestant martyr.[5] He has been described as perhaps the most eloquent of all the new generation of evangelical preachers.[6] Under Mary of England he was forced into exile, moving to Strasburg. A successor as rector, Laurence Saunders, was burned at the stake. Sampson was strongly anti-Catholic through the rest of his life;[7] he communicated to his parishioners his distaste for Catholic prayers for the dead.[8] Elizabethan era He did not return immediately on Elizabeth's accession, waiting until 1560.[9] In that year he became canon of Durham, and in 1561 Dean of Christ Church, Oxford.[3] In the controversy over clerical dress, Matthew Parker ordered the Anglican clergy to wear surplice and cap. Sampson attempted to give the debate a broader Protestant dimension, involving correspondence with Heinrich Bullinger. He was ultimately unsuccessful, since Bullinger sided with Parker.[10] The Court of High Commission ruled against Sampson, after summoning him in 1565.[11] He was deprived of his position as Dean, despite being thought a very effective administrator.[12] He subsequently held other positions. He was prebendary of St Paul's Cathedral in 1570. He became Master of Whittington College; the old College of St. Spirit and St. Mary and almshouse set up by Richard Whittington at St. Michael Paternoster Royal had been shut down, by Edward VI and then for good by Elizabeth,[13] but he lectured there regularly. The spectacular case of Peter Birchet, who wounded John Hawkins in 1573, mistaking him for Christopher Hatton, brought attention to Sampson, since Birchet had heard him preach on the morning of the attack.[14] Afflicted by bad health, Sampson gave that post up. He was then appointed Master of the Hospital of William de Wygston, at Leicester.[15] Sampson continued to argue his position. He prepared a summary of Martin Bucer's De Regno Christi, which he passed to Lord Burghley during the 1570s.[16] References Benjamin Brook (1813), The Lives of the Puritans, pp. 375–384 Notes ^ Sampson, Thomas in Venn, J. & J.
