Excerpt: ... cut off from any of his father's honours, and by law but a simple knight, he was almost invariably styled Lord Edward Seymour, even in State documents. This seems to show that his position evoked considerable sympathy, which was shown in thus addressing him by a higher title than he was legally entitled to. During the year 1584, we find an interesting return made by him and Sir John Gilberte, of all the 15 84. demi-lances and light horse in four of the hundreds of Devon (September 30), and an Instrument of Association for Devon, signed and sealed by him, together with Sir John Gilberte, Sir Francis Drake, and many others. f (October.) On the approach of the Spanish Armada, Sir Edward was placed in command of a body of troops in 1588. Devon, but when the alarm of an invasion was over these were disbanded. On August 26, 1589. 1589, we find a curious letter from Gilberte and Cary, to the Council, in which they acknowledge the receipt of their order for safely bestowing the prisoners from a Spanish ship, brought in to Dartmouth, and for making an inventory of the ordnance, munition, &c, contained therein. They add that they had found 85 pipes of wine on board, but in such bad condition that they could make but 67 full pipes of the best of it, and with that the wines were indifferent and sour. They had ventured, they said, presuming on the Council's approval, to bestow one of these pipes on Lord Edward Seymour, as a slight return for his having been kind enough to cumber his house at Berry Pomeroy with all their Spanish prisoners until the ship was cleared, and that, but for him, they would not have known where to bestow them.f We may hope that either their verdict on the wine was wrong or that Sir Edward was not troubled with too delicate a...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 1547 Henry VIII lay dying. His heir was just 9 years old and all England waited expectantly to see who would hold the reins of power until Edward VI came of age. Within days of Henry's death, the privy council overturned the terms of his will and Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset was named Lord Protector. It was a decision that the men in power would come to regret. For nearly three years, Somerset was 'king in all but name', the most powerful man in England. But though he was a skilled soldier and leader on the battlefield, Somerset's political skills were not so well-honed. His single-mindedness and his overbearing attitude towards the privy Councillors alienated the very men whose support he most needed. When they lost patience with him, the scene was set for conflict. Despite energetic opposition, his religious reform was his greatest success and the establishment of the Book of Common Prayer, which laid the foundation of the Anglican Church, was to be his most enduring achievement. However, his efforts to lessen the authoritarian rule imposed by Henry VIII and to improve the well-being of the common folk led to widespread rebellion, and as his attempt to subdue the Scots failed, England faced war with France. To the people Edward Seymour was the 'Good Duke'. To his fellow Councillors he was a traitor. This is a story of Tudor ambition, power and the ultimate price of failure.

Download or read book Waterborne Pageants and Festivities in the Renaissance written by Margaret Shewring and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the first book-length study of waterborne festivities in Renaissance and early modern Europe, this collection of essays draws on a rich array of sources, many previously un-researched, to explore aspects of scenography, choreography, music, fashion, painting, sculpture, architecture, stage-and personnel-management and urban planning as evinced in spectacles staged on water. Bodies of water in all their variety are explored here: seas, rivers, fountains, lakes and canals and flooded improvised locations within or adjacent to great buildings all provided stages for elaborate and costly performances, utilising the particular qualities of water to reflect light and distort sound. The volume encompasses festivals marking a wide range of occasions from the election of civic officials, the welcome of a monarch, an investiture or coronation, to ambassadorial visits or the arrival of a royal or ducal bride or bridegroom. Often taking the form of re-enactments of naval battles or legendary seaborne quests, these festivals seek to buttress civic and national pride, make claims to mastery over the sea and landscape, and explore the imaginative as well as practical life of performance space which has been a hallmark of the research and publication of this volume's honorand, J.R. (Ronnie) Mulryne.
