Book The Life of Henry  Third Earl of Southampton

Download or read book The Life of Henry Third Earl of Southampton written by Charlotte Carmichael Stopes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Henry, Third Earl of Southampton: Shakespeare's Patron From a plain statement of facts, however, we may sometimes secure legitimate inferences. Hence I dwelt, some may think unduly, on his work in the Virginia Company. We find him there, always in the van, among all his anxieties. A troublesome minority made so much noise that the king crushed it because of the disagreement among themselves, but Southampton could have pulled it through had he been let alone. And from what we know of his actions there, we may argue back to the other brawls with which he has been credited, feeling sure he would always be on the side which he thought was right.

Book Henry III

Download or read book Henry III written by David Carpenter and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-14 with total page 803 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first in a ground-breaking two-volume history of Henry III's rule "Professor Carpenter is one of Britain's foremost medievalists...No one knows more about Henry, and a lifetime of scholarship is here poured out, elegantly and often humorously. This is a fine, judicious, illuminating work that should be the standard study of the reign for generations to come."--Dan Jones, The Sunday Times Nine years of age when he came to the throne in 1216, Henry III had to rule within the limits set by the establishment of Magna Carta and the emergence of parliament. Pacific, conciliatory, and deeply religious, Henry brought many years of peace to England and rebuilt Westminster Abbey in honor of his patron saint, Edward the Confessor. He poured money into embellishing his palaces and creating a magnificent court. Yet this investment in "soft power" did not prevent a great revolution in 1258, led by Simon de Montfort, ending Henry's personal rule. Eminent historian David Carpenter brings to life Henry's character and reign as never before. Using source material of unparalleled richness--material that makes it possible to get closer to Henry than any other medieval monarch--Carpenter stresses the king's achievements as well as his failures while offering an entirely new perspective on the intimate connections between medieval politics and religion.

  • Author : William A. Henry, III
  • Publisher : Anchor
  • Release : 2015-03-18
  • ISBN : 1101912413
  • Pages : 226 pages

Download or read book In Defense of Elitism written by William A. Henry, III and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2015-03-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Pulitzer Prize-winning culture critic for Time magazine comes the tremendously controversial, yet highly persuasive, argument that our devotion to the largely unexamined myth of egalitarianism lies at the heart of the ongoing "dumbing of America." Americans have always stubbornly clung to the myth of egalitarianism, of the supremacy of the individual average man. But here, at long last, Pulitzer Prize-winning critic William A. Henry III takes on, and debunks, some basic, fundamentally ingrained ideas: that everyone is pretty much alike (and should be); that self-fulfillment is more imortant thant objective achievement; that everyone has something significant to contribute; that all cultures offer something equally worthwhile; that a truly just society would automatically produce equal success results across lines of race, class, and gender; and that the common man is almost always right. Henry makes clear, in a book full of vivid examples and unflinching opinions, that while these notions are seductively democratic they are also hopelessly wrong.

Book The Life of Theodore Agrippa D aubign

Download or read book The Life of Theodore Agrippa D aubign written by Sarah Robinson Scott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Theodore Agrippa D'aubigne Containing a Succinct Account of the Most Remarkable Occurrences During the Civil Wars of France, in the Reigns of Charles IX., Henry III., Henry IV., And the Minority of Lewis XIII I am sensible, that when his grand daughter was in the zenith of her power, Agrippa d'au bigne would have appeared more worthy of public attention, than at piesent: but a brave and honest man must always be an interesting object; and the contemplation of great virtues, even of a sort the least suited to the fashion of the times, will ever warm the heart. Of such I trust the subject of the following sheets will be found possessed; though it is certain, that when an author makes choice of a character, because it is particularly pleasing to himself, he would be very unreasonable were he to expect, that it should become equally the favourite of his readers. Taste influences our judgments in regard to virtue, as in other things; people differ concerning intellectual as well as corporeal beauty, but they differ only in degrees of approbation; they will give a preference to one particular turn of mind or features, but some charms will be allowed to every object, that can produce any just claim to real beauty, though it be not of the kind most agreeable to the peculiar taste of the spectator, or of the reader.

Book excerpt: The career of William Marshal (1146/7-12), who rose from being the penniless, landless younger son of a middle-ranking nobleman to be regent of England in the minority of Henry III, is one of the most extraordinary stories of theMiddle Ages.

Book The Gothic King

Download or read book The Gothic King written by John Paul Davis and published by Peter Owen Publishers. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first biography in many years of Henry IIIThe son and successor of Bad King John, Henry III reigned for 56 years from 1216, the first child king in England for 200 years. England went on to prosper during his reign and his greatest monument is Westminster Abbey, which he made the seat of his government—indeed, Henry III was the first English King to call a parliament. Though often overlooked by historians, Henry III was a unique figure coming out of a chivalric yet Gothic era: a compulsive builder of daunting castles and epic sepulchres; a powerful, unyielding monarch who faced down the De Montfort rebellion and waged war with Wales and France; and, much more than his father, Henry was the king who really hammered out the terms of the Magna Carta with the barons. John Paul Davis brings all his forensic skills and insights to the grand story of the Gothic King in this, the only biography in print of a most remarkable monarch.
