Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Correspondence of Robert Bowes, of Aske, Esquire: The Ambassador of Queen Elizabeth in the Court of Scotland Shortly after the battle of Flodden, King Henry the Eighth, taking advantage of the disorganized state of Scotland, laid the foundation of a system of diplomatic espionage, which was afterwards matured by his daughter, Queen Elizabeth. The English ambassador, resident at the Scottish court, was employed not only in watching over the public interests of his master, but also in forming and maintaining within that kingdom a party of the nobility and gentry, many of whom were in the pay of the English sovereign. The correspondence of these agents - much of which has come down to us - shows that in general they possessed considerably more tact than honesty, and that they had to deal with persons whose principles and practices were of the most questionable character; from this source we gain a more accurate insight into the affairs of that kingdom than we could probably derive from any other class of documents. One of these ambassadors was Robert Bowes, of Aske, Esq.; and he filled that situation under circumstances of more than ordinary difficulty, and therefore of more than usual interest.

Download or read book Tudor Networks of Power written by Ruth Ahnert and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-16 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tudor Networks of Power is the product of a groundbreaking collaboration between an early modern book historian and a physicist specializing in complex networks. Together they have reconstructed and computationally analysed the networks of intelligence, diplomacy, and political influence across a century of Tudor history (1509-1603), based on the British State Papers. The 130,000 letters that survive in the State Papers from the Tudor period provide crucial information about the textual organization of the social network centred on the Tudor government. Whole libraries have been written using this archive, but until now nobody has had access to the macroscopic tools that allow us to ask questions such as: What are the reasons for the structure of the Tudor government's intelligence network? What was it geographical reach and coverage? Can we use network data to show patterns of surveillance? What role did women play in these government networks? And what biases are there in the data? The authors employ methods from the field of network science, translating key concepts and approaches into a language accessible to literary scholars and historians, and illustrating them with examples drawn from this fantastically rich archive. Each chapter is the product of a set of thematically organized 'experiments', which show how particular methods can help to ask and answer research questions specific to the State Papers archive, but also have applications for other large bodies of humanities data. The fundamental aim of this book, therefore, is not merely to provide an innovative perspective on Tudor politics; it also aspires to introduce an entirely new audience to the methods and applications of network science, and to suggest the suitability of these methods for a range of humanistic inquiry.
