The Tudor Monarchy
Making available a selection of some of the most significant recent work on the Tudor Monarchy, this reader gives a good sense of the issues that have preoccupied historians. It also shows how an understanding of less conventional facets of the subject, such as the phenomenon of female rule, the interdependence of the Court and the localities, or the significance of the borderlands in shaping Tudor culture, has shed light on the dynamics of the eternals of power and politics. Particular attention is given to recent seminal contributions that have shifted the traditional focus, but the debates in the field that continue to fascinate historians and students are well represented. With full introductory sections by John Guy, the volume looks in turn at the broad themes of "Renaissance Monarchy"; personality and politics; and polity and government.
