Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date DE-6 (2788) Abstract The Henry VIII MS (BL Additional MS 31,922)—a song book with lyrics by Henry VIII, Thomas Wyatt, William Cornish, and other literary figures of the early Henrician court—is a document that contributes greatly to a critical understanding of the connections between poetry, patronage, and power in early Renaissance society because of the prominence of its chief author, the King himself, and the manuscript's reflection of literary, social, and political elements of the early Tudor court. Acknowledging that the contents of the Henry VIII MS have been thoroughly treated as "words for music" by the musicologist John Stevens, whose Music and Poetry in the Early Tudor Court and Music at the Court of Henry VIII are the standard works in the area, my thesis builds on existing scholarship to treat the lyrics of H chiefly as "words," as literary texts.

  • The Six Wives of King Henry Viii
    THE SIX WIVES OF KING HENRY VIII Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived! Ready for a trip back in time? Here at Nat Geo Kids, we’re travelling back to Tudor England in our Henry VIII wives feature. Hold onto your hats – and your heads! Henry VIII wives… 1. Catherine of Aragon Henry VIII’s first wife was Catherine of Aragon, daughter of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain. Eight years before her marriage to Henry in 1509, Catherine was in fact married to Henry’s older brother, Arthur, who died of sickness at just 15 years old. Together, Henry and Catherine had a daughter, Mary – but it was a son that Henry wanted. Frustrated that Catherine seemed unable to produce a male heir to the throne, Henry had their marriage annulled (cancelled) in 1533. But there’s more to the story – towards the end of their marriage, Henry fell in love with one of Catherine’s ladies-in-waiting (woman who assisted the queen) – Anne Boleyn… 2. Anne Boleyn Anne Boleyn became Henry’s second wife after the pair married secretly in January 1533. By this time, Anne was pregnant with her first child to Henry, and by June 1533 she was crowned Queen of England. Together they had a daughter, Elizabeth – the future Queen Elizabeth I. But, still, it was a son – and future king of England – that Henry wanted. Frustrated, he believed his marriage was cursed and that Anne was to blame. And so, he turned his affections to one of Anne’s ladies-in-waiting, Jane Seymour.

Patriarchal Dynamics in Politics: How Anne Boleyn’s Femininity Brought her Power and Death Rebecca Ries-Roncalli Senior Honors Project May 2, 2018 Ries-Roncalli 1 I. Adding Dimension to an Elusive Character The figure of Anne Boleyn is one that looms large in history, controversial in her time and today. The second wife of King Henry VIII, she is most well-known for precipitating his break with the Catholic Church in order to marry her. Despite the tremendous efforts King Henry went to in order to marry Anne, a mere three years into their marriage, he sentenced her to death and immediately married another woman. Popular representations of her continue to exist, though most Anne Boleyns in modern depictions are figments of a cultural imagination.1 What is most telling about the way Anne is seen is not that there are so many opinions, but that throughout over 400 years of study, she remains an elusive character to pin down.

  • Book Interview Robin Maxwell
    Book Interview Robin Maxwell To the Tower Born ISBN13: 9780060580520 Q: As a follower and historian of English royalty, which is your favorite period, and why? What is it that inspires you about the history of the royal families in England? A: By the time I'd finished my fourth book, The Wild Irish, I believed I'd pretty well "done" the 16th century Tudors, but the family still held a fascination for me. When I turned to their immediate ancestors I found, of course, the greatest mystery in English history&#8212what had happened to the little princes? I loved this idea and knew it hadn't been "mined" in the fiction genre for a long time, but when I started my research I was frankly doubtful that the Yorks and Lancasters would be anywhere near as colorful, scheming and bloodthirsty as Henry VIII, Elizabeth I and "Bloody Mary." How wrong I was! The 15th century figures made their descendants look like downright wusses. Q: There are some women in English history who undoubtedly exercised a great deal of power. What do you think made this possible? A: Certainly my books are "female heavy," and some might take issue with that. In the case of To the Tower Born, the tragedy of the boys' disappearance started because of the actions of a woman, their mother, Queen Elizabeth Woodville, who decided on her own volition, to dismiss her dead husband's wishes about who was to be young Edward's "Protector." She didn't like or trust Richard and moved to push him aside.
