Abstract The essay examines Archbishop Laud’s prison diaries and scaffold sermon in relation to post-Foxean martyrology. In Laud’s writings one sees a distinctive theological stance reworking a highly conventionalized genre, and making out of it something that approaches Great Literature (in the Arnoldian sense), but also, in the process, affording reason to think that Laud has been ill-used by historians and is ripe (insofar as archbishops can ripen) for reassessment.
