The question of Henry VIII Tudor's divorce soon became an international issue that changed the political relations of the world. Since Anglicanism necessitated a swift adaptation of the English society, the king and parliament as legislators had drawn initial legal margins which were utilised in the upcoming social changes in England. While this body of the English legislature is of the utmost historical, political and legal importance for the United Kingdom, three acts thereof are of particular interest: the 1532 Act for the Conditional Restraint of Annates, the 1533 Act in Restraint of Appeals and the 1534 Supremacy Act. Through the application of the legal approach to historical research, this paper examines direct social consequences regarding the structure of governance and legal norms provided for the protection of the regal authority, most notably the criminal prosecution of heresy, the mandatory requirement of the Oath of Supremacy and broadening the high treason as a crime.
