  • Representing Henry's Royal Palace
    Representing Henry’s Royal Palace: The Relationship between Film, Television and Hampton Court Palace Llewella Chapman Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia, School of Art, Media and American Studies July 2017 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between the heritage industry on the one hand, and the film and television industries on the other. It will argue that a hierarchy of heritage sites exists in the United Kingdom, which, depending on a site’s placement within this hierarchy, determines how a site engages with film and television. Furthermore, this thesis argues that there are three main ways in which heritage sites can engage with film and television: firstly, by allowing film and television productions to make use of a site; secondly through using film and television as part of a site’s interpretation strategy; and finally, by using film and television as part of a site’s marketing strategy. As a case study, this thesis focuses on Hampton Court Palace, a site maintained by Historic Royal Palaces. There is evidence to suggest that this organisation places itself highly within the hierarchy, and therefore this thesis will analyse the ways that it engages with film and television at Hampton Court Palace.

Displays of Power in English Tudor Painting (1485-1558) Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of History 402 Laura Meisner March, 2017 Dr. Scott Amos Dr. Adam Dean Dr. Clifton Potter History passes down the visages of Tudor monarchs and their contemporaries through paintings that attempt to show us more than their mere likenesses. The faces of these monarchs reveal not only individual physiognomies of appearance, but also characteristics of the times. Painting in Tudor England, up to the reign of Queen Elizabeth I (1485-1558) reflected, and at times contributed, to shifting political and social structures in England. Patrons exercised great influence on the kind of art created and brought into England, and a study of this and how patrons utilized art as a means of propaganda reveals the way that given situations shaped art. An analysis of specific works leads to a better understanding of this period in English History and its social and political influences.

Anne Boleyn: Living a Thousand Lives Forever Amanda Nicholson Honors Thesis February 10, 2017 Nicholson 1 Anne Boleyn appeared at the English court of Henry VIII in 1526. Capturing the imagination of the King and the country, Anne changed the course of English history for all time. Anne’s influence supplanted a long-time, well-loved Queen and changed the religion of a country that had been Catholic for over a thousand years. Anne, the sister of Henry’s former mistress, first served as a lady-in-waiting to Katharine of Aragon, Henry VIII’s first wife, in 1526. Henry and Katharine wed in 1509. The royal couple, despite having a daughter, were desperate to produce a male heir. Anne and Henry began a relationship with that objective in mind.
