The English Reformation: Changes in the English Church The call for religious reform spread to other parts of Europe. In 1534, King Henry VIII had Parliament formally separate the Catholic Church in England from the pope in Rome (many believe it was because he wanted more personal control and, mainly, the right to divorce his wives.) King Henry VIII King Henry VIII wanted to divorce his wife Catherine (Catherine of Aragon) because she had given birth to a girl (Mary Tudor) and Henry needed a male heir for the throne. He asked the pope to ANNUL his Annul: declare a marriage so he could marry Anne Boleyn instead. The pope was taking marriage to have too long, so Henry VIII turned to the English church courts instead. In had no legal 1533, the archbishop of the highest church court in England, Thomas existence Cranmer, ruled that the king's marriage to Catherine was null and void.

  • 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.

  • The Coinages for Ireland of Henry Viii Michael Dolley and W
    THE COINAGES FOR IRELAND OF HENRY VIII MICHAEL DOLLEY AND W. D. HACKMANN (A) HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AND MORE PURELY NUMISMATIC CONSIDERATIONS THE primary purpose of this paper is to subject to fresh examination a very considerable body of material brought together by the late Raymond Carlyon-Britton, and published by him in the Numismatic Chronicle for 1954.1 That study, however, was almost entirely epigraphical, and, as with so much of the work of amateurs of that generation, the author scarcely lifted his eyes to look beyond the relevant trays of his own cabinet. As far as its handling of the historical evidence is concerned, too, the 1954 paper repre- sented no advance whatever on the truly excellent analysis of the English administrative records presented by Henry Symonds nearly forty years previously,2 and it is believed that until 1968 there existed no numismatist to whom it had as much as occurred that purely Irish narrative sources might have something to contribute to the solution of outstanding problems. Still more remarkable may be thought the failure of all students until now to pay any attention to the hoard evidence. It may be meagre, and in 1954 it undoubtedly seemed still more so, but even a nod in its direction would have been welcome. As it happens, too, the Courtown hoard discovered a whole century ago3 in itself affords a pretty clear indication that the inception of the Anglo-Irish coinage of Henry VIII does not appreciably antedate the 1534 revolt of 'Silken Thomas'. What is perhaps even more surprising is that so little attention was paid by Carlyon-Britton to the silver content of a series of coins which is known to exhibit progressive debasement.

    School resource The first of Henry VIII's six wives, Katherine of Aragon (1485-1536) was a Spanish princess who was married to Henry for 18 years before he began divorce proceedings in his desperation to re-marry and produce a male heir. Katherine had been pregnant six times but only one daughter, Princess Mary, later Mary I, had survived. Dying in 1536, Katherine wrote to Henry: 'Lastly, I make this vow, that mine eyes desire you above all things. Farewell.' Katherine of Aragon The second of Henry VIII's six wives, Anne Boleyn (c1501-36) was married to the King for only three years from 1533-6. Instead of the sought after male heir, Anne was pregnant with another princess, Elizabeth (later Elizabeth I). Anne was supported by religious reformers but was also hated by many at court. After a miscarriage, her fate was sealed and she was arrested (and later Anne Boleyn executed at the Tower of London) for adultery and incest. Jane Seymour (c1509-37) was the third of Henry VIII's six wives and the only wife to provide the King with the much longed for son and male heir. Having married Henry in May 1536, she gave birth to Prince Edward (later Edward VI) at Hampton Court Palace in 1537 but died soon afterwards. Henry had his son but grieved: 'Providence has mingled my joy with the bitterness of the death of her who brought me this happiness.' Jane Seymour Anne of Cleves (1515-1557) was the fourth of Henry VIII's six wives and at 24 was half Henry's age when they married in January 1540.

  • Spread of Protestant Reformation Presentation
    The Reformation Spreads Throughout Europe The English Reformation In 1509, Henry VIII married Catherine of Aragon. The marriage had produced only one surviving child, their daughter Mary. By 1527, Henry had become infatuated with Anne Boleyn. The only way to put Catherine aside was to get a papal annulment of his marriage. The reigning Pope Clement VII was strongly influenced by the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, Catherine’s nephew. In 1533 the Archbishop of Canterbury officially invalidated Henry’s marriage to Catherine. Henry wed the (already) pregnant Anne Boleyn. Expanding Secular Power The “Reformation Parliament” passed the Submission of the Clergy, placing religious law officially under royal control. Parliament established a precedent: Whenever fundamental changes are made in religion, the monarch must consult with and work through Parliament. In 1534, Parliament: ended all English payments to Rome gave Henry sole jurisdiction over religious appointments passed the Act of Succession passed the Act of Supremacy When the King’s longtime trusted advisor Thomas More refused to recognize the Act of Succession and the Act of Supremacy, Henry had him executed, making clear his determination to have his way regardless of the cost. Henry VIII’s Many Wives To to secure a male heir Henry married six times: Catherine of Aragon (daughter Elizabeth) Anne Boleyn (daughter Elizabeth) Jane Seymour (son Edward) Anne of Cleves Catherine Howard Catherine Parr (survived him) Despite his many wives and amorous adventures, Henry absolutely forbade the
