On this day in 1526, Bishop Cuthbert Tunstall burned Tyndale’s English New Testaments at Paul’s Cross, hoping to crush heresy.
But buying up copies to burn only funded Tyndale’s next, better edition. Oops!
Censorship vs print? Print won.

On this day in Tudor history, 27th October 1526, Bishop Cuthbert Tunstall presided over a book burning at Paul's Cross in London. The goal was to stop heresy, and in order to do this, he'd ordered the buying of every copy of William Tyndale's English translation of the New Testmant. This censorship spectacularly backfired, though, as Tyndale used the money to pay for the printing of the improved second edition!
