Book Interpreting the Death of Edward VI

Download or read book Interpreting the Death of Edward VI written by Kyra Krammer and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2022-09-21 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Edward VI tends to be glossed over in the historical narrative of the Tudor dynasty. His achievements during his brief time on the throne are eclipsed by the tumultuous and fascinating reigns of his grandfather, father and two half-sisters. This does a great disservice to the precocious and remarkable boy-king. Even with his early death, his effect on English history is undeniable - if he had lived, he would have almost certainly have been considered the greatest of the Tudor monarchs. What killed this impressive young man before he could deepen his mark on history? Moreover, is that medical mystery connected to the premature deaths of the other Tudor male heirs? Interpreting the Death of Edward VI is an exploration into the life, illness and unusually early death of Henry VIII's overshadowed son. The author uses her expertise in Tudor medical history to investigate and provide an in-depth analysis of the prevailing theories of what might have killed the otherwise healthy young Tudor before he reached adulthood.

Book Edward VI

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jennifer Loach
  • Publisher : Yale University Press
  • Release : 2014-11-01
  • ISBN : 0300143982
  • Pages : 268 pages

Download or read book Edward VI written by Jennifer Loach and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-01 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward VI was the son of Henry VIII and his second wife, Jane Seymour. He ruled for only six years (1547-1553) and died at the age of sixteen. But these were years of fundamental importance in the history of the English state, and in particular of the English church. This new biography reveals for the first time that, despite his youth, Edward had a significant personal impact. Jennifer Loach draws a fresh portrait of the boy king as a highly precocious, well educated, intellectually confident, and remarkably decisive youth, with clear views on the future of the English church. Loach also offers a new understanding of Edward’s health, arguing that the cause of his death was a severe infection of the lungs rather than tuberculosis, the commonly accepted diagnosis. The author views Edward not as a sickly child but as a healthy and vigorous boy, devoted to hunting and tournaments like any young aristocrat of the day. This book tells the story of the monarch and of his time. It supplies the dramatic context in which the short reign of Edward VI was played out—the momentous religious changes, factional fights, and popular risings. And it offers vivid details on Edward’s increasing absorption in politics, his consciousness of his role as supreme head of the English church, his determination to lay the foundation for a Protestant regime, and how his failure in this ambition brought England to the brink of civil war.

Book Lady Jane Grey

    Book Details:
  • Author : Eric Ives
  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2011-10-17
  • ISBN : 1444350188
  • Pages : 422 pages

Download or read book Lady Jane Grey written by Eric Ives and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-10-17 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lady Jane Grey, is one of the most elusive and tragic characters in English history. In July 1553 the death of the childless Edward VI threw the Tudor dynasty into crisis. On Edward's instructions his cousin Jane Grey was proclaimed queen, only to be ousted 13 days later by his illegitimate half sister Mary and later beheaded. In this radical reassessment, Eric Ives rejects traditional portraits of Jane both as hapless victim of political intrigue or Protestant martyr. Instead he presents her as an accomplished young woman with a fierce personal integrity. The result is a compelling dissection by a master historian and storyteller of one of history’s most shocking injustices.

Book Interpreting Crimes in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court

Download or read book Interpreting Crimes in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court written by Leena Grover and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court defines more than ninety crimes that fall within the Court's jurisdiction: genocide, other crimes against humanity, war crimes and aggression. How these crimes are interpreted contributes to findings of individual criminal liability, and moreover affects the perceived legitimacy of the Court. And yet, to date, there is no agreed-upon approach to interpreting these definitions. This book offers practitioners and scholars a guiding principle, arguments and aids necessary for the interpretation of international crimes. Leena Grover surveys the jurisprudence of the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia and Rwanda before presenting a model of interpretive reasoning that integrates the guidance within the Rome Statute into articles 31-33 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969).
