In Tudor England, the prevalence of beggars was largely due to economic hardship, including widespread poverty, unemployment, and population growth following the Black Death. The dissolution of monasteries and the decline of feudalism reduced traditional forms of support for the poor. Additionally, changes in agricultural practices and the enclosure movement displaced many rural workers, exacerbating the need for alms. The social attitudes of the time often stigmatized the poor, leading to a visible population of beggars in urban areas.
