MAP 13.2 Catholics and Protestants in Europe by 1560. The Reformation continued to evolve beyond the basic split of the Lutherans from the Catholics. Several Protestant sects broke away from the teachings of Martin Luther, each with a separate creed and different ways of worship. In England, Henry VIII broke with the Catholic Church for political and dynastic reasons.

were a direct reaction against the Protestant move- ment. Historians who prefer to use “Catholic Reforma- tion” point out that elements of reform were already present in the Catholic Church at the end of the fif- teenth century and the beginning of the sixteenth, and that by the mid-sixteenth century, they came to be directed by a revived and reformed papacy, giving the church new strength.
No doubt, both positions on the nature of the refor- mation of the Catholic Church contain elements of
truth. The Catholic Reformation revived the best fea- tures of medieval Catholicism and then adjusted them to meet new conditions, as is most apparent in the re- vival of mysticism and monasticism. The emergence of a new mysticism, closely tied to the traditions of Cath- olic piety, was especially evident in the life of the Span- ish mystic Saint Teresa of Avila (1515–1582). While the regeneration of religious orders also proved valua- ble to the reform of Catholicism, new religious orders and brotherhoods were also created.
