Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First English Life of King Henry the Fifth: Written in 1513 by an Anonymous Author Known Commonly As, the Translator of Livius In a famous passage in his Annales John Stow, when describing how Henry of Monmouth appeared before his father in 1412 to seek for a reconciliation, attributes his story to the Translator of Livius, who gave it on the information of the Earl of Ormonde, 'an eye-witness of the same.' Holinshed also, in his list of learned men and writers during the reign of Henry V, after mentioning Titus Livius, goes on to say: 'one there was that translated the said history into English, adding (as it were by way of notes in many places of that book) sundry things for the more large understanding of the history; a copy whereof I have seen belonging to John Stow, citizen of London.' In two places Holinshed makes specific mention of the Translator of Livius as the authority for statements in his text. Before Stow and Holinshed, Nicholas Harpsfield, who died in 1575 having been a prisoner in the Tower since 1559) in his Historia Anglicana (which, however, was not printed till 1632) states that the Life of Henry V by Titus Livius had been translated into English by one 'who added some things of his own taken, as he says, from the Earl of Ormonde.' Stow's story was borrowed by Holinshed, and has obtained a wide currency. Nevertheless its source has passed unnoticed, and the possible existence of a translation of Titus Livius incorporating new material has been almost entirely overlooked, or noticed only to call in question the authenticity of the stories derived from it. Recently Mr. F. Madan directed my attention to an English Life of Henry V in Bodley MS. 966. An examination of it showed at once that it was the lost work of the Translator, and identical with the book cited by Thomas Hearne in the notes to his edition of the Vita Henrici Quinti by Titus Livius as Libri Anglici.

Book Synopsis Divine Providence in the England of Shakespeare's Histories by : H.A. Kelly
Download or read book Divine Providence in the England of Shakespeare's Histories written by H.A. Kelly and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-01-30 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fascinating study, Henry Ansgar Kelly examines the treatment of fifteenth-century English history - the period covered in Shakespeare's history plays, from Richard II to the accession of Henry VII - by contemporary chroniclers, by sixteenth-century historians, and by Elizabethan poets, notably Shakespeare. The author reveals the large role that political bias played in the contemporary accounts: favorite sons were endowed with divine support while cosmically base troubles were attributed to the opposition. He shows that instead of the 'Tudor myth' spoken of by present-day scholars there is a Lancaster myth, a York myth, and a somewhat different Tudor myth. Each is heralded by the partisans of these dynasties. The Lancaster myth regards Richard II's overthrow as providentially arranged and Henry IV's reign as a divine favor, continued under Henry V and Henry VI. The York myth considers Henry VI's loss of the reign as a providential restoration of the usurped throne to the lawful heir of Richard II, namely Edward IV. Kelly finds that the real Tudor myth differs importantly from the widely accepted version in that, far from accepting the Yorkist view that the Henries were punished by God, it accepts the legitimacy of the Lancastrian dynasty: it regards Henry VII, the closest surviving Lancastrian heir, as the providential instrument in the defeat of the wicked Yorkist Richard III and the divinely favored bringer of peace to England. The myth was formulated by the historians and poets who wrote immediately after Henry VII's accession to the throne in 1485. The later chroniclers (especially Polydore Vergil, Hall, and Holinshed) incorporated elements of all three myths - Lancaster, York, and Tudor - but for moralistic rather than for political purposes, often with contradictory results. Shakespeare's great contribution, Kelly asserts, was to sort out the partisan layers that had been blended in the recent compilations available to him and to distribute them to approporiate spokesmen - Lancastrian sentiments to Lancastrians, and so on. He thus eliminated all the purportedly objective providential judgments of his sources and presented such judgments as the opinions of the persons voicing them, thereby allowing each play to create its own ethos and mythos and offer its own hypotheses concerning the springs of human and cosmic action.

Download or read book The English People at War in the Age of Henry VIII written by Steven Gunn and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry VIII fought many wars, against the French and Scots, against rebels in England and the Gaelic lords of Ireland, even against his traditional allies in the Low Countries. But how much did these wars really affect his subjects? And what role did Henry's reign play in the long-term transformation of England's military capabilities? The English People at War in the Age of Henry VIII searches for the answers to these questions in parish and borough account books, wills and memoirs, buildings and paintings, letters from Henry's captains, and the notes readers wrote in their printed history books. It looks back from Henry's reign to that of his grandfather, Edward IV, who in 1475 invaded France in the afterglow of the Hundred Years War, and forwards to that of Henry's daughter Elizabeth, who was trying by the 1570s to shape a trained militia and a powerful navy to defend England in a Europe increasingly polarised by religion. War, it shows, marked Henry's England at every turn: in the news and prophecies people discussed, in the money towns and villages spent on armour, guns, fortifications, and warning beacons, in the way noblemen used their power. War disturbed economic life, made men buy weapons and learn how to use them, and shaped people's attitudes to the king and to national history. War mobilised a high proportion of the English population and conditioned their relationships with the French and Scots, the Welsh and the Irish. War should be recognised as one of the defining features of life in the England of Henry VIII.

Download or read book Henry IV written by B. Bevan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henry of Bolingbroke was one of the most important noblemen of the later fourteenth century. Brave, chivalrous and cultured, a talented musician, he excelled at the jousts held at his cousin Richard II's Court, acquiring military experience at Radcot Bridge in Oxfordshire and later fighting with the Teutonic Knights in Prussia. A great medieval traveller, he visited Konigsberg as Earl of Derby, travelling to Danzig, Prague and later Venice and Jerusalem. Bitterly opposed to Richard II's favourites, Bolingbroke as one of the Lords Appellant played a vital part. Henry's most controversial actions were the deposition of Richard II (1399) and the execution of Richard Scrope, Archbishop of York, after he had usurped Richard's throne. As Henry IV, an usurper, the King knew little peace, incessantly engrossed as he was in preserving his throne; and the French and Scots never allowed him to forget his usurpation. For many years he fought a savage and frustrating war against the great Welsh rebel Owain Glyn Dwr, but defeated the immortal Harry Percy (Hotspur) at the Battle of Shrewsbury (1403). In his relations with his Parliaments, Henry showed acumen and praiseworthy restraint, unlike his predecessor who was determined to be an absolute King. His short reign was remarkable for the development of Parliament.
