Book excerpt: ‘Anyone who writes about the Tudor century puts his head into a number of untamed lions’ mouths.’ G.R. Elton, Preface Geoffrey Elton (1921–1994) was one of the great historians of the Tudor period. England Under the Tudors is his major work and an outstanding history of a crucial and turbulent period in British and European history. Revised several times since its first publication in 1955, England Under the Tudors charts a historical period that witnessed monumental changes in religion, monarchy, and government – and one that continued to shape British history long after. Spanning the commencement of Henry VII's reign to the death of Elizabeth I, Elton’s magisterial account is populated by many colourful and influential characters, from Cardinal Wolsey, Thomas Cranmer, and Thomas Cromwell to Henry VIII and Mary Queen of Scots. Elton also examines aspects of the Tudor period that had been previously overlooked, such as empire and commonwealth, agriculture and industry, seapower, and the role of the arts and literature. This Routledge Classics edition includes a new foreword by Diarmaid MacCulloch.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Henry Hastings, 3rd Earl of Huntingdon, KG, KB (ca. 1535? 14 December 1595) was the eldest son of Francis Hastings, 2nd Earl of Huntingdon and Catherine Pole ... He was named a Knight of the Garter in 1570, alongside William Somerset, 3rd Earl of Worcester. In 1572 he was appointed president of the Council of the North, and during the troubled period between the flight of Mary, Queen of Scots, to England in 1568 and the defeat of the Spanish Armada twenty years later he was frequently employed in the north of England. It was doubtless felt that the earl's own title to the crown was a pledge that he would show scant sympathy with the advocates of Mary's claim. He assisted George Talbot, 6th Earl of Shrewsbury, to remove the Scottish queen from Wingfield Manor to Tutbury, and for a short time in 1569 he was one of her custodians. He was later one of the Peers at her trial in 1586"--Wikipedia.

Excerpt: ... .i. * CHAPTER I .. u'i '. ..., '., ., Of the method which must of necessity be used in, . *: iu this disputation. .'i.: i. If the weak custom of human sense durst not be so (I cannot bold as to oppose itself against the reasons of apparent answer truth, but would yield this languid infirmity unto wholesome instruction, as unto a medicine which were fittest to apply, untrl by God's good assistance, and faith's operation, it were thoroughly cured; then those that can both judge well, and instruct sufficiently, should not need many words to confute any erroneous opinion, or to make it fully apparent unto such, as their desires would truly inform. But now, because there is so great and inveterate a disease rooted in the minds of the ignorant, that they will (out of their extreme blindness, whereby they see not what is most plain, or out of their obstinate perverseness, whereby they will not brook what they see) defend their irrational and brutish opinions, after that the truth has been taught them as plain as one man can teach another: hence it is that there ariseth a necessity that bindeth us to dilate more fully of what is already most plain, and to give the truth, not unto their eyes to see, but even into their heads, as it were to touch and feel. Yet, notwithstanding, this by the way: What end shall we make of alteration if we hold that the answerers are continually to be answered? For, as readers for those that either cannot comprehend what is said who are unto them, or else are so obstinate in their vain satisftecfi opimons, that though they do understand the truth, yet will not give it place in their minds, but reply against it, as it is written of them, "like spectators of iniquity," those are eternally frivolous: and if...
