Quidditas 37 (2016) 57 Small Mid-Tudor Chronicles and Popular History: 1540-1560 Barrett L. Beer Kent State University This essay examines twenty-two editions of little-studied small Mid-Tudor chroni- cles that were published by printers at Canterbury and London. They demonstrate the important role of printers in historical scholarship and offer a significantly dif- ferent perspective on English history than the better-known, larger contemporary works of Robert Fabyan, Edward Hall, and Thomas Cooper. The chronicles also shed light on the readership of historical works by non-elite readers who presum- ably could not afford larger and more expensive chronicles. The short chronicles present a simplified view of the past, avoid propagating the well-known Tudor myths including the tyranny of Richard III, and demonstrate a clear preference for recent history. Although overlooked in most accounts of Early Modern historiography, the small Mid-Tudor chronicles are clearly part of the historical culture of the era.

    FRICK TO PRESENT FIRST MAJOR NORTH AMERICAN EXHIBITION ON RENAISSANCE PAINTER GIOVANNI BATTISTA MORONI MORONI: THE RICHES OF RENAISSANCE PORTRAITURE February 21 through June 2, 2019 In Renaissance Italy, one of the aims of portraiture was to make the absent seem present through naturalistic representation of the sitter. This notion—that art can capture an individual exactly as he or she appears—is exemplified in the work of Giovanni Battista Moroni. The artist spent his entire career in and around his native Bergamo, a region in Lombardy northeast of Milan, and left a corpus of portraits that far outnumbers those of his contemporaries who worked in major artistic centers, including Titian in Venice and Bronzino in Florence. Though Moroni never achieved their fame, he innovated the genre of portraiture in spectacular ways. This winter and spring, Giovanni Battista Moroni (b. 1520–24; d. 1579/80), Portrait of a Young Woman, ca. 1575, oil on canvas, private collection; photo: the Frick presents the first major exhibition in North Michael Bodycomb America devoted to his work, bringing together nearly two dozen of Moroni’s most arresting and best known portraits from international collections to explore the innovations and experiments that belie his masterful illusion of recording reality. They will be shown alongside a selection of complementary objects— Renaissance jewelry, textiles, arms and armor, and other luxury items—that exemplify the material and visual world that Moroni recorded, embellished, and transformed.

  • POLITICAL ENCOUNTERS in the Late 1540S Tensions Flared When
    CHAPTER FIVE MAKING THE BI-CONFESSIONAL CITY: POLITICAL ENCOUNTERS A mutiny might have arisen, and the community might have struck the council dead!1 In the late 1540s tensions flared when Schmalkaldic War ended Augsburg’s decade-long experiment with religious uniformity. In 1537 a reforming council had attempted to silence debate and controversy in the city by establishing a new religious order, but its fall revealed the vulnerability of the city’s policy. In 1536, a year before issuing the new church ordinance, Augsburg had joined the Schmalkaldic League of Protestant princes and cities.2 After years of hesitating, this decision had signaled the council’s readiness to support reform openly. Persuaded by infl uential leaders Georg Herwart and Jakob Herbrot, Augsburg made the fateful decision to side with the Protestant princes against the emperor when war broke out in 1546.3 One of the city’s great mercenary generals, Captain Schertlin von Burtenbach, served with Philip of Hesse in the war. After a few initial victories, the Schmalkal- dic League was strategically weakened when Duke Moritz of Saxony, a Lutheran, invaded the lands of one of its leaders, his cousin, Elec- tor Johann Friedrich. On 24 April 1547, Charles V defeated Johann Friedrich at Mühlberg, and Philip of Hesse soon capitulated as well. They, and other members of the league, such as Augsburg, faced the consequences of rebellion. In the fall of 1547 Charles convened an imperial diet in Augsburg to assert his authority and consolidate his victory with a resolution of the religious divisions in his empire.

  • “Our Swedish Moses and Saviour”: the Use of Biblical Leaders As Power Legitimization in Reformation Sweden
    Martin Berntson Chapter 8 “Our Swedish Moses and Saviour”: The Use of Biblical Leaders as Power Legitimization in Reformation Sweden The Vasa-regime that seized royal power in the kingdom of Sweden during the early sixteenth century was in urgent need of a power legitimization that could both corre- spond to well-known traditional symbols and narratives but also at the same time le- gitimize the new regime and its adherence to the Lutheran Reformation. The use of Old Testament kings and leaders such as David, Jehoshaphat, Joseph, and Moses could thereby function as typologies relating to the Jerusalem Code. However, through relating these Old Testament kings with their responsibility for the peoples’ spiritual needs and with their distinctive biblical foundation, the Jerusalem Code was trans- formed and adjusted to early modern Lutheran political culture, emphasizing the king’s responsibility for the Church and for the people’s spiritual well-being and the lack of biblical foundation for the Catholic sacramental culture (for example, mass in Latin, pilgrimage, and the use of sacramentals). It could also be argued that the fre- quent use of figures such as Moses and Joseph was a significant part of the Jerusalem Code in Sweden, signifying both the importance of humility and God’s providence in the secular government. Introduction In the kingdom of Sweden the introduction of the Reformation coincided with a na- tional political revolution. The process towards establishing a national Protestant church was to a large extent governed by the political and economic needs of King Gustav Vasa (r. 1523–60) whose regime marked Sweden’s leave-taking from the Note: This article has been presented as a paper at the Sixteenth Century Society Conference in Bruges in August 2016 and it has also been discussed at a workshop at the Norwegian School of Theology in Oslo in September 2017.

  • Introduction
    Artists & Anatomists Elizabeth Kathleen Mitchell, PhD Burton and Deedee McMurtry Curator and Director of the Curatorial Fellowship Program Introduction ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■ After the sixteenth century, the processes by which European artists gained knowledge of human anatomy increasingly informed images ranging from the documentary to the fantastical. Instead of learning anatomy and proportion exclusively by copying old master works of art, artists sought new and direct opportunities to understand the mechanics of the body. They studied live models and attended anatomical demonstrations held at academies and studios—or sought out work with medical men with access to corpses. Anatomists also hired draftsmen and printmakers to create visual records of their research, an experience offering exceptional access and insight. Whether created to represent an empirical or imagined encounter, these representations of the body often reveal society’s conflicted feelings about anatomical study being research toward a greater good, or a perverse and sacrilegious violation. ■ ■ ■ 1. Jan Stephan van Calcar’s woodcut title page to the 1543 text The Epitome (Of Human Corporal Anatomy) 1 by physician and anatomist Andreas Vesalius (Flanders, 1514–1564) depicts students and onlookers gathered around Vesalius while he teaches from a female corpse. Meant to evoke the anatomy theater at the University of Padua where Vesalius was a professor, the image blends fact with dramatic flourishes of fiction. It presents an idealized imagining of Vesalius directing the empirical study of a body in a space that resembles a church or theatrical stage. A skeleton holding an instructor’s staff is seated on a railing just above the corpse, as if to preside over the lesson, and above it hovers a placard with the book’s title.

  • Spies and Intelligence in Scotland, C. 1530–1550
    Chapter 4 Spies and Intelligence in Scotland, c. 1530–1550 Amy Blakeway In April 1539, Thomas Howard, third Duke of Norfolk, visited Berwick-upon- Tweed. The arrival of this veteran of the Flodden campaign so close to the border provoked substantial interest amongst the Scots, and Norfolk soon re- ceived a visitor: an unnamed Scot whom the duke considered to be “a very sure spiall.”1 This individual, who dwelt close to Berwick and had friends in the town, claimed he had been ordered by James v to use his “frends” to “serche to knowe what is the occasion of the Duke of Norffolks nowe cumyng to these parties.” When the man later reported that Norfolk “cam for none ill intent,” James v enigmatically responded that “It is trouthe, for I am so aduertised by diuerse waies.”2 Uncovering precisely what these “diuerse waies” of dis- covering events in England consisted of poses challenges, since spying was, by its nature, an activity shrouded in secrecy – few records were produced, and fewer remain extant. Nevertheless, enough survives to offer some insight into how the Scottish crown obtained “advertisements,” a word which strictly meant warning but might encompass a broader definition of news, in the 1530s and 1540s. Whilst intelligence was gathered throughout the period, from 1544 onwards, but increasingly from 1547, the Scottish crown paid agents to enter England where they and their servants remained for extended periods of time. This suggests that one of the ways in which the Scottish crown responded to the depredations of the Rough Wooings, the Anglo-Scottish conflict fought be- tween 1543 and 1550 over the union of the nations through the marriage of Mary, Queen of Scots, to Henry viii’s son Edward, was to develop its intelli- gence network.

  • Introduction
    Cambridge University Press 0521631564 - The Cambridge History of Early Modern English Literature Edited by David Loewenstein and Janel Mueller Excerpt More information INTRODUCTION david loewenstein and janel mueller Following The Cambridge History of Medieval English Literature edited by David Wallace (1999), this collaborative volume of twenty-six chapters in five Parts narrates the history of English literature written in Britain between the Ref- ormation and the Restoration. The Cambridge History of Early Modern English Literature takes account of significant recent discoveries and methodological developments in English literary studies, while providing the general coverage expected of a major critical reference work. We believe that there is a need for an innovatively conceived literary history that examines the interactions between sites of production, reception and circulation, on the one hand, and the aesthetic and generic features of early modern texts, on the other. Our volume provides basic information about and essential exposition of writing in early modern Britain, while exemplifying fresh approaches to the field and the writing of literary history. We hope that this volume, like the one devoted to medieval literature, will prove a valuable resource for scholarly, graduate and undergraduate readers, and that it will influence teaching and research in early modernEnglishliterature. We also believe that this Cambridge History differs from earlier literary histories inseveral notableways. Our volume is designed to implement what is, at present, a frequently shared workingassumptionofAnglo-Americanliterary studies, butonethat until now has not given shape to the compilation of a literary history. This assumption holds that literature is at once an agent and a product of its culture, simultane- ously giving expression to and taking expression from the political, religious and social forces in which its own workings are imbricated.

  • The Coins of Sweden
    THE COINS OF SWEDEN To Queen Christina By David Ruckser Sweden, officially the Kingdom of Sweden, is a Nordic country on the Scandinavian Peninsula in Northern Europe. It has borders with Norway (west and north) and Finland (northeast). It has been a member of the European Union since January 1, 1995. Its capital city is Stockholm. At 449,964 km² (173,720 square miles), Sweden is the third largest country by area in Western Europe and fifth in all of Europe. Sweden has a low population density of 20 people per square kilometre, except in its metropolitan areas; 84% of the popula- tion lives in urban areas, which comprise only 1.3% of the country's total land area so that's about 1,300 people per square kilometre (3,400 per square mile) in urban areas. The inhabitants of Sweden enjoy a high standard of living, and the country is generally perceived as modern and liberal, with an organisational and corporate cul- ture that is non-hierarchical and collectivist compared to its Anglo-Saxon counter- parts.[3] Nature conservation, environmental protection and energy efficiency are generally prioritized in policy making and embraced by the general public in Sweden. Sweden has long been a major exporter of iron, copper and timber. Improved trans- portation and communication has allowed for the large scale utilization of remote nat- ural assets, most notably timber and iron ore. In the 1890s, universal schooling and industrialization enabled the country to devel- op a successful manufacturing industry and by the twentieth century, Sweden emerged as a welfare state, consistently achieving high positions among the top-ranking countries in the UN Human Development Index (HDI).
