Book The History of Ireland  The Era of Tudor Reign

Download or read book The History of Ireland The Era of Tudor Reign written by Richard Bagwell and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-11-13 with total page 1289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 3-volume book features a detailed historical account of one of the most turbulent periods in Irish history. The Tudor conquest (or reconquest) of Ireland took place under the Tudor dynasty, which held the Kingdom of England during the 16th century. Following a failed rebellion against the crown by Silken Thomas, the Earl of Kildare, in the 1530s, Henry VIII was declared King of Ireland in 1542 by statute of the Parliament of Ireland, with the aim of restoring such central authority as had been lost throughout the country during the previous two centuries. Several people who helped establish the Plantations of Ireland also played a part later in the early colonization of North America, particularly a group known as the West Country men. Alternating conciliation and repression, the conquest continued for sixty years, until 1603, when the entire country came under the nominal control of James I.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the British Isles is the story of four peoples linked together by a process of state building that was as much about far-sighted planning and vision as coincidence, accident and failure. It is a history of revolts and reversal, familial bonds and enmity, the study of which does much to explain the underlying tension between the nations of modern day Britain. The Making of the British Islesrecounts the development of the nations of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland from the time of the Anglo-French dual monarchy under Henry VI through the Wars of the Roses, the Reformation crisis, the reigns of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, the Anglo-Scottish dynastic union, the British multiple monarchy and the Cromwellian Republic, ending with the acts of British Union and the Restoration of the Monarchy.

Book The Problem of Ireland in Tudor Foreign Policy  1485 1603

Download or read book The Problem of Ireland in Tudor Foreign Policy 1485 1603 written by William Palmer and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 1994 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: His thesis is simple: English policy in Ireland was shaped to a greater extent than has previously been realized by foreign policy and the power politics of the Counter Reformation... A brief but important book.'CHOICE Dr Palmer explores the role of sixteenth-century Ireland in considerable depth, examining how it changed during times of crisis abroad, and how the tensions provoked by the Reformation in England introduced an ideological element into international politics. He shows how the failure of Henry's invasions of Scotland and France in the 1540s led to greater involvement in Ireland by these countries, which in turn led to the entry of more and more English officials into Ireland and the implementation of increasingly aggressive policies. This study thus shows that Tudor rule in Ireland reflected wider international politics, with significant implications.WILLIAM PALMERis Professor of History at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia.

Book The Tudor Discovery of Ireland

Download or read book The Tudor Discovery of Ireland written by Christopher Maginn and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid acquisition of knowledge about Ireland in Tudor times constituted a discovery of no small importance for the development of the early modern English state. How the Tudors, and the most influential members of the political establishment who served them, came to be acquainted with Ireland - with its history, with its politics and economy, with its people, and with its geography - and how that acquired knowledge was applied is the subject of this book. It includes in its analysis an edition of a previously unexamined 16th-century manuscript - the Hatfield Compendium - as a means of exploring the phenomenon of knowledge acquisition and its relationship to the determination of Tudor policy. The book shows that before the Tudor conquest of Ireland there was the Tudor discovery of Ireland. *** "...an impressively well written work of exceptional scholarship....

Book Surviving the Tudors

Download or read book Surviving the Tudors written by Vincent Carey and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surviving the Tudors focuses on the political and social world of Gerald Fitzgerald the 'Wizard' earl of Kildare from 1537 to 1586. Kildare's experience provides us with an important insight into the process by which the Irish elites came into conflict with the crown and its representatives in the decades after the fateful Kildare rebellion in 1534. As the case of the 'Wizard' earl suggests, however, this outcome was not inevitable. After surviving Henry VIII's efforts to capture him while in exile on the continent, Kildare went on in the reign of Edward VI to salvage his lands and return to Ireland. Under the Catholic Mary he was restored to the earldom and re-established Geraldine primacy on the Leinster borders. Kildare used his available resources in a flexible response to the gradual extension of English rule. These assets included Gaelic alliances, coign and livery, court connections, and the power that came from being the Pale's greatest feudal lord. Kildare was capable of using these resources to undermine hostile administrations. Traditional border and Gaelic practices and the oscillations of Elizabethan court politics, however, exposed him to the machinations of his New English rivals. Rebellion and religious-inspired foreign intrigue were easily linked to him and provided a means whereby his status at court and in Ireland was finally damaged. The dilemma posed for Kildare during the rebellions of 1579-83 suggests that the disjointed process by which the Tudors extended their rule in Ireland not alone subverted his traditional authority but also forced him to question his very identity.

Book Ireland s English Pale  1470 1550

Download or read book Ireland s English Pale 1470 1550 written by Steven G. Ellis and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2021 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenges the argument that the English Pale was contracting during the early Tudor period.A key argument of this book is that the English Pale - the four counties around Dublin under English control - was expanding during the early Tudor period, not contracting, as other historians have argued. The author shows how the new system, whereby "the four obedient shires" were protected by new fortifications and a newly-constituted English-style militia, which replaced the former system of extended marches, was highly effective, making unnecessary money and troops from England, and enabling the Dublin government to be self-financing. The book provides full details of this new system. It also demonstrates how direct rule by an English army and governor, which replaced the system in the years after 1534, was much more costly and led on in turn to the policy of "surrender and regrant" under which Irish chiefs became subject to English law. The book highlights how this policy made the English Pale's frontiers redundant, but how ideologically ideas of "English civility" nevertheless survived, and "the wild Atlantic way" remained "beyond the Pale".t, but how ideologically ideas of "English civility" nevertheless survived, and "the wild Atlantic way" remained "beyond the Pale".t, but how ideologically ideas of "English civility" nevertheless survived, and "the wild Atlantic way" remained "beyond the Pale".t, but how ideologically ideas of "English civility" nevertheless survived, and "the wild Atlantic way" remained "beyond the Pale".

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • For the first time in decades comes a fresh look at the fabled Tudor dynasty, comprising some of the most enigmatic figures ever to rule a country. “A thoroughly readable and often compelling narrative . . . Five centuries have not diminished the appetite for all things Tudor.”—Associated Press In 1485, young Henry Tudor, whose claim to the throne was so weak as to be almost laughable, crossed the English Channel from France at the head of a ragtag little army and took the crown from the family that had ruled England for almost four hundred years. Half a century later his son, Henry VIII, desperate to rid himself of his first wife in order to marry a second, launched a reign of terror aimed at taking powers no previous monarch had even dreamed of possessing. In the process he plunged his kingdom into generations of division and disorder, creating a legacy of blood and betrayal that would blight the lives of his children and the destiny of his country. The boy king Edward VI, a fervent believer in reforming the English church, died before bringing to fruition his dream of a second English Reformation. Mary I, the disgraced daughter of Catherine of Aragon, tried and failed to reestablish the Catholic Church and produce an heir. And finally came Elizabeth I, who devoted her life to creating an image of herself as Gloriana the Virgin Queen but, behind that mask, sacrificed all chance of personal happiness in order to survive. The Tudors weaves together all the sinners and saints, the tragedies and triumphs, the high dreams and dark crimes, that reveal the Tudor era to be, in its enthralling, notorious truth, as momentous and as fascinating as the fictions audiences have come to love. Praise for The Tudors “A rich and vibrant tapestry.”—The Star-Ledger “A thoroughly readable and often compelling narrative . . . Five centuries have not diminished the appetite for all things Tudor.”—Associated Press “Energetic and comprehensive . . . [a] sweeping history of the gloriously infamous Tudor era . . . Unlike the somewhat ponderous British biographies of the Henrys, Elizabeths, and Boleyns that seem to pop up perennially, The Tudors displays flashy, fresh irreverence [and cuts] to the quick of the action.”—Kirkus Reviews “[A] cheeky, nuanced, and authoritative perspective . . . brims with enriching background discussions.”—Publishers Weekly “[A] lively new history.”—Bloomberg
