Download or read book Richard the Third written by Paul Murray Kendall and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 692 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard III (2 October 1452 - 22 August 1485) was King of England from 1483 until his death in 1485 in the Battle of Bosworth Field. He was the last king of the House of York and the last of the Plantagenet dynasty. His defeat at Bosworth Field, the last decisive battle of the Wars of the Roses, marked the end of the Middle Ages in England. He is the subject of the fictional historical play Richard III by William Shakespeare. In 2012, an archaeological excavation was conducted on a city council car park using ground-penetrating radar on the site once occupied by Greyfriars, Leicester. The University of Leicester confirmed on 4 February 2013 that the skeleton found in the excavation is that of Richard III, based on the results of radiocarbon dating, a comparison with contemporary reports of his appearance, and a comparison of his mitochondrial DNA with that of two matrilineal descendants of Richard III's eldest sister, Anne of York.

Book Synopsis Good King Richard? by : Jeremy Potter
Download or read book Good King Richard? written by Jeremy Potter and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-04-20 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard III, the so-called 'last English King of England' and the wicked uncle of tradition, is the most controversial and enigmatic of monarchs. Could he really have been as sinister as he was painted by Tudor chroniclers and, if he wasn't, why do some historians go on saying that he was? Why is his enlightened legislation so little noticed? Is there any real evidence that he murdered his nephews, the princes in the Tower? Did he really have a hunchback or was it invented for him after his death as 'proof of villainy'? Is Shakespeare's Richard III a portrayal of the real Richard or no more than a character in a work of fiction? Was St Thomas More really a witness of truth? Good King Richard? Is an account of Richard III's life and times, character, appearance and reign, but above all, of the Great Debate which has raged since his death between traditionalists and revisionists. First published in 1983, to mark the 500th anniversary of his accession to the throne, Jeremy Potter's Good King Richard? is a history of his reputation from 1483 to 1983. Jeremy Potter was Chairman of the Richard III Society from 1971 until 1989. The 2014 Bloomsbury Reader edition of Good King Richard? is introduced by Peter and Carolyn Hammond from Richard III Society who discuss Jeremy Potter's account in the light of the recent archaeological discoveries of Richard's skeleton, and the location of the battlefield on which Bosworth was fought. “This book, Good King Richard?, is not a biography but is a discussion of the ebb and flow of Richard III's reputation, both in the academic world and in popular estimation. Since Jeremy wrote it there have been two major events, all archaeological, which impinge on the life of Richard III and which Jeremy would have wanted to at least mention although they do not realign Richard's reputation in any major way.”

Book Synopsis Betrayal of Richard III by : V.B. Lamb
Download or read book Betrayal of Richard III written by V.B. Lamb and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2015-02-02 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this classic work, Peter Hammond and the late V.B. Lamb survey the life and times of Richard III and examine the contemporary evidence for the events of his reign, tracing the origins of the traditional version of his career as a murderous tyrant and its development since his death. The evident grief of the citizens of York on hearing of the death of Richard III — recording in the Council Minutes that he had been 'piteously slane and murdered to the Grete hevynesse of this citie' — is hardly consistent with the view of the archetypal wicked uncle who murdered his nephews, the Princes in the Tower, and there is an extraordinary discrepancy between this monster and the man as he is revealed by contemporary records.An ideal introduction to one of the greatest mysteries of English history, this new edition is revised by Peter Hammond and includes an introduction and notes.

Book excerpt: The mother of King Richard the Third was a beautiful, and, in many respects, anoble-minded woman, though she lived in very rude, turbulent, and trying times.She was born, so to speak, into one of the most widely-extended, the most bitter, and the most fatal of the family quarrels which have darkened the annals of thegreat in the whole history of mankind, namely, that long-protracted and bittercontest which was waged for so many years between the two great branches of thefamily of Edward the Third-the houses of York and Lancaster-for the possessionof the kingdom of England. This dreadful quarrel lasted for more than a hundredyears. It led to wars and commotions, to the sacking and burning of towns, to theravaging of fruitful countries, and to atrocious deeds of violence of every sort, almost without number. The internal peace of hundreds of thousands of families allover the land was destroyed by it for many generations. Husbands were alienatedfrom wives, and parents from children by it. Murders and assassinationsinnumerable grew out of it. And what was it all about? you will ask. It arose from thefact that the descendants of a certain king had married and intermarried amongeach other in such a complicated manner that for several generations nobody couldtell which of two different lines of candidates was fairly entitled to the throne. Thequestion was settled at last by a prince who inherited the claim on one sidemarrying a princess who was the heir on the other. Thus the conflicting interests ofthe two houses were combined, and the quarrel was ended.But, while the question was pending, it kept the country in a state of perpetualcommotion, with feuds, and quarrels, and combats innumerable, and all the othercountless and indescribable horrors of civil war.The two branches of the royal family which were engaged in this quarrel werecalled the houses of York and Lancaster, from the fact that those were the titles ofthe fathers and heads of the two lines respectively. The Lancaster party were thedescendants of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, and the York party were thesuccessors and heirs of his brother Edmund, Duke of York. These men were bothsons of Edward the Third, the King of England who reigned immediately beforeRichard the Second. A full account of the family is given in our history of Richardthe Second. Of course, they being brothers, their children were cousins, and theyought to have lived together in peace and harmony. And then, besides being relatedto each other through their fathers, the two branches of the family intermarriedtogether, so as to make the relationships in the following generations so close andso complicated that it was almost impossible to disentangle them. In reading thehistory of those times, we find dukes or princes fighting each other in the field, orlaying plans to assassinate each other, or striving to see which should make theother a captive, and shut him up in a dungeon for the rest of his days; and yet theseenemies, so exasperated and implacable, are very near relations-cousins, perhaps, if the relationship is reckoned in one way, and uncle and nephew if it is reckoned inanother. During the period of this struggle, all the great personages of the court, and all, or nearly all, the private families of the kingdom, and all the towns and thevillages, were divided and distracted by the dreadful f
