The Tudors are one of the most well-known of the English royal dynasties for several reasons: the larger than life characters, the multiple marriages and Virgin Queen, and the extraordinary portraits. When Hans Holbein the Younger became Henry VIII's painter, he helped create an image of the king that has shaped our understanding of the Tudors. Franny Moyle joins us to share her research into how Holbein helped create the legacy of Henry VIII.Show Notes:Carol Ann Lloydwww.carolannlloyd.com@shakeuphistorypatreon.com/carolannlloydThe Tudors by Numbers, published by Pen and SwordFranny MoyleFrannymoyle.comThe King's Painter: The Life and Times of Hans Holbein(Can buy dedicated copy of the UK hardback, which has the best images, on her website)@frannymoyleCreative Director: Lindsey LindstromMusic: History by Andy_Grey via Audio Jungle, Music Broadcast LicenseLet's shake up history together!@shakeuphistory
For the Tudors, tapestries not only brought warmth and colour to a room, but they were magnificent demonstrations of artistic skill and of moral messages. A campaign is now under way to save a vast golden tapestry – Saint Paul Directing the Burning of the Heathen Books - personally commissioned by Henry VIII around 1535, at the time he broke with Rome. If the campaign is successful, the tapestry will go on display to the public in the Faith Museum, Bishop Auckland in County Durham, in Spring 2024. In this episode of Not Just the Tudors, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb talks to Sutherland Forsyth and Claire Barron from the Auckland Project, who are spearheading the campaign to try and save this precious, glorious tapestry for the nation.

The Dean's List with Host Dean Bowen – Exploring England's tumultuous past, I delve into the tyrannical reigns of monarchs like Henry VIII and Bloody Mary. Their laws, such as the Act of Supremacy and the Act of Uniformity, harshly impacted religious freedom. The Puritans and Pilgrims, seeking to escape these oppressions, faced numerous trials, highlighting the intense struggle for religious liberty in England's history.
Join us for a special Twins on Tour episode where we dive into the histories of the first two wives of Henry VIII, Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn.
I welcome April Taylor to the show in this interview episode to discuss her new book, 'Crime and Punishment in Tudor England: From Alchemists to Zealots.' The book tells the story of the law's enactment and its penalties from Henry VII to Elizabeth I. It's arranged in alphabetical order of crimes and recounts tales of blackmail, infanticide, kidnapping, heresy, and sumptuary laws. Researched meticulously and told with occasional low-key humour, the book tells stories such as that of John Daniell and how he tried to blackmail the Earl of Essex; the Stafford insurrection of 1486, the first serious opposition to the new king; the activities of conman extraordinaire, Gregory Wisdom, and many more. The book also includes Tavern Talk (snippets of quirky information). April was born in the historic county of Lincolnshire and caught the history bug from a young age. She has always been fascinated by the physical manifestation of past events, particularly the Tudor period. That interest deepened when she discovered one of the most important events of Henry VIII's reign, the Lincolnshire Rebellion that led to the Pilgrimage of Grace in 1536, which started eight miles from where April was born. 'Crime and Punishment in Tudor England: From Alchemists to Zealots' was released on September 20, 2023, and is available to purchase here: Crime and Punishment in Tudor England | Pen and Sword History ***This interview was recorded on October 24, 2023.

Mother Shipton, born Ursula Southeil, was born in Yorkshire, England in the late 1400s. According to legend she was born in Shipton's cave, a site famous for waters that quickly petrify objects left in it. She is purported to have written a great deal of prophesy that predicted such things as the death of Cardinal Wolsey and the eventual use of plumbing to bring water across the Ouse Bridge. While it is hard to determine what, if any, of the writing that are attributed to her are indeed her works, her name remains synonymous with prophesy and witchcraft across all of England.

A consolidated version of the Mapping History episodes for the Second Turning Having completed mapping the Fourth Turning, Looking Back to see how Mapping History ties them all together 1534 - Returning to the early 16th century, where the Protestant Reformation has begun. Henry VIII began as a "Defender of the Faith" against Martin Luther, but within a few years is opposing the Church because he's unable to get an annullment of his marriage. It's a good landmark on our map, showing up almost exactly halfway between the Reconquista and the Spanish Armada, while being well-alligned with the spirtual concerns often seen during a Second Turning. 1629 - Between Puritans, creeping authoritarianism, breaking of norms of governing and an overall concern about how religion is making itself known in political affairs, the monarchy of Charles I should be a very effective landmark for this history map. But like some of the others we will come to view in the Awakening periods, the complexity of the political map can make it difficult. It's still useful for understanding what else is happening in the 17th Century, and seeing some of the connections that join different points in time. It was July 8 1841, in the middle of a revival, Jonathan Edwards would quietly give a sermon. It's our landmark for the Second Turning that's also known as the Great American Awakening. That Deuteronomy quote: https://biblehub.com/deuteronomy/32-35.htm https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Sinners_in_the_Hands_of_an_Angry_God Twenty-five-year-old William Lloyd Garrison published the anti-slavery weekly newspaper, The Liberator, starting on the first day of 1831. The Letters of William Lloyd Garrison: I will be heard, 1822-1835 includes in its annotations on page 92 an objective summary of the circumstances of the Todd libel case. In 1896, at the Democratic National Convention, Williams Jennings Bryan rises to speak about the question of coinage, of money, but also about who was to be represented in the halls of power. Barely old enough even to be President of the United States, he makes a speech, full of religious symbolism, that wins him the party's nomination for that office. On April 3, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke in support of a strike of sanitation workers in Memphis, Tennessee. The speech he gave, with biblical imagery and references, especially to the Israelites, their escape from slavery, and what their leader, Moses, was allowed to glimpse before his death, has since become known as the Mountaintop speech. Video of the speech can be found on Youtube. The brief audio clips used here came from the internet archive. https://archive.org/details/IHaveBeenToTheMountaintopFullSpeech In the podcast audio, it might not be quite as clear as intended that "John Brown's Body" being referenced was a marching song of the Union army during the American Civil War. John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry, which led to John Brown's trial and execution, occurred just a year before the election of Abraham Lincoln as president. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Brown%27s_Body

We're talking musicals today! Samantha recommends Six, the musical about the six wives of Henry VIII, Indy goes classic with Gene Kelly's Singin' In The Rain, and we preview The Sound Of Music, which we will dive into next episode! Singin' In The Rain Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSE8sl2-PZg&ab_channel=WarnerBros.Entertainment The Sound Of Music Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygyK0HStjwg&ab_channel=ParkCircus Six is a British musical comedy with music, book, and lyrics by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss. It is a modern retelling of the lives of the six wives of Henry VIII, presented in the form of a pop concert. In the show, each of the wives (Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Catherine Parr) take turns telling their story to determine who suffered the most from their common husband. The musical was premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2017, where it was performed by students from Cambridge University. Six premiered on the West End in January 2019, and has since embarked on a UK tour. An Australian production opened at the Sydney Opera House in January 2020. It premiered on Broadway in March 2020 and, following a hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, officially opened at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre on 3 October 2021.[6] Two North American tours, dubbed the "Aragon" and "Boleyn" tours, began in 2022. Singin' in the Rain is a 1952 American musical romantic comedy film directed and choreographed by Gene Kelly and Stanley Donen, starring Kelly, Donald O'Connor, and Debbie Reynolds and featuring Jean Hagen, Millard Mitchell and Cyd Charisse. It offers a lighthearted depiction of Hollywood in the late 1920s, with the three stars portraying performers caught up in the transition from silent films to "talkies". The film was only a modest hit when it was first released. O'Connor won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, and Betty Comden and Adolph Green won the Writers Guild of America Award for their screenplay, while Jean Hagen was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. However, it has since been accorded legendary status by contemporary critics, and is often regarded as the greatest musical film ever made and one of the greatest films ever made,[2] as well as the greatest film made in the "Freed Unit" at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. It topped the AFI's Greatest Movie Musicals list and is ranked as the fifth-greatest American motion picture of all time in its updated list of the greatest American films in 2007.

Tracy Borman opens our new series on the Queens Consort of Henry VIII with renowned historian Dr Elizabeth Norton. To better understand the six Queens, they first explore the context of the turbulent times in which these women lived. As the first Queen of Henry VIII, Katherine of Aragon's reputation as the dowdy wronged wife has endured for 500 years, but Tracy and Elizabeth call this into question. They reveal that Katherine's iron-will was both her strength and arguably her undoing. Please be aware that this episode contains references to miscarriages, still births and infant mortality. This six-part series will aim to do The Six Tudor Queens justice by stripping away unhelpful narratives and myths, to better understand them as women in their own time.
The Tudors ruled over England from the unlikely battlefield victory of King Henry VII in 1485; through the 6 wives of heinous Henry VIII and his three children's desperate fights over the throne; to the agonizing death of the magnificent Queen Elizabeth I in 1603. The family's tragic interpersonal drama, and penchant for beheading anyone who got in their way have inspired a number of chilling ghost stories. So lock the door, turn down the lights, light a candle and pour yourself a bloody Mary. Together, lets step briefly off the relatively firm ground of historic record and into the misty realms of legend, hearsay and the supernatural as we recount the Ghastly Ghost Stories of the Terrible Tudors...

The Lion House is a riveting new book from journalist and historian Christopher De Bellaigue, written like a novel that tells the dramatic story of Suleyman the Magnificent and his power and influence over 16th-century Europe. In this episode recorded at the Chalke Valley History festival during the summer of 2022, Christopher talks Dan through what was happening at the opposite end of Europe to Henry VIII and the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V as this fearsome Sultan set his sights on swathes of the Middle East and the Horn of Africa and reigned over what became known as the 'Golden Age of the Ottoman Empire.'This episode was produced by Mariana Des Forges.

Les souverains anglais maintiennent un lien très étroit avec l'Église de leur pays. On l'a encore constaté, le 6 mai dernier, quand le Roi Charles III a été couronné et sacré par l'archevêque de Cantorbéry. Mais ce lien se manifeste également par les titres religieux que porte le monarque. En effet, le Roi d'Angleterre est, de nos jours encore, le « gouverneur suprême de l'Église d'Angleterre ». Ce titre remonte à 1534, quand le Roi Henry VIII, rompant toute relation avec le Pape, crée une nouvelle religion nationale, l'anglicanisme. Par l'Acte de suprématie, Henry VIII s'arroge le titre de chef suprême de l''Église d'Angleterre, dont il prend la tête. Depuis le règne d'Élizabeth Ière (1558-1603), ce titre s'est légèrement modifié, pour prendre son intitulé actuel. En tant que gouverneur suprême, le Roi désigne les principaux dignitaires de l' Église anglicane. En fait, comme la plupart des prérogatives royales, celle-ci est exercée par le Premier ministre, dont le souverain se contente de ratifier le choix. Défenseur de toutes les fois? Dans la titulature du Roi d'Angleterre, apparaît un autre titre religieux, celui de « défenseur de la foi ». Ce titre fut, pour la première fois, attribué à Henry VIII en 1521. Le Pape récompensait, par ce titre prestigieux, l'écriture, par le souverain, d'un traité défendant le catholicisme contre les premiers assauts de la Réforme protestante. C'était au temps où Henry VIII, qui se piquait de théologie, était encore dans le giron de l'Église catholique. Quand il s'en sépara, quelques années plus tard, le Pape le priva d'un titre qui n'avait plus lieu d'être. Toutefois, le Parlement le lui restitua en 1544. Depuis lors, il a été porté par tous ses successeurs. Depuis longtemps, le Roi actuel, Charles III, conscient de la diversité de ses sujets, réclame une modification de ce titre. Il se voudrait en effet, non pas le défenseur de « la » foi (donc de la seule religion anglicane), mais de toutes les sensibilités religieuses qui se manifestent dans son Royaume. Il reste à voir si son désir sera satisfait. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In some portraits of Henry VIII there appears another, striking figure. This is Will Somer, the king's fool, a celebrated wit who could raise Henry's spirits and spent many hours alone with him. But was Somer an “artificial fool” - a comedian who spoke truth to power - or a “natural fool,” someone with intellectual disabilities?In this episode of Not Just the Tudors, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb talks to Swedish historian Peter K. Andersson, whose new biography of Somer - Fool: In Search of Henry VIII's Closest Man - reveals a little-known world where comedy could be something cruel and unpleasant.This episode was produced by Rob Weinberg.Discover the past on History Hit with ad-free original podcasts and documentaries released weekly presented by world renowned historians including Dan Snow, Suzannah Lipscomb, Lucy Worsley, Matt Lewis, Tristan Hughes and more.
