Podcast appearances and mentions of jack cade

In Shakespeare's play, Antony and Cleopatra, Cleopatra declares “It is my birth-day: I had thought to have held it poor: but, since my lord Is Antony again, I will be Cleopatra.” Indicating that she was relieved to be marking the occasion in a better way. Julius Ceasar, similarly declares in Act V, “This is my birth-day; as this very day was Cassius born.” In Pericles, the First Fisherman says “he hath a fair daughter, and to-morrow is her birth-day;” (Act II).  In Shakespeare's Hamlet, Marcellus talks about celebrating our Savior's birth with singing. Other references to the day of one's birth show up in Henry VI Part II the Earl of Suffolk talks about having a cunning old man calculate the day of his birth (Act IV), and later in that same act, Jack Cade talks about how his father was ignorant of both his birth and parentage. All of these mentions of birth days, their calculations, and their celebrations, has me wondering what exactly birthdays were like for Shakespeare's England. We always celebrate Shakespeare's birthday in style in around here, but would the bard have celebrated his own day of birth? To find out, we've invited one of the authors of the article “Debating the Birthday: Innovation and Resistance in Celebrating Children” Peter Stearns, to the show to day, to help us explore the history of marking a birthday with cakes, gifts, and a gathering of friends. Would this have occurred for Shakespeare's lifetime? Let's find out right now, on That Shakespeare Life.   Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

ABC #063 - Part 3 Robert Taylor Conrad was a polymath whose writing was praised by Edgar Allen Poe and whose play Aylmere, or Jack Cade became another favorite of Edwin Forrest's.  He also served as Mayor of Philadelphia at the time of consolidation.

Americans struggled to establish their own identity as they separated from the British in the early 19th century.  It was a time of blossoming for American theater and its playwrights, despite their receiving little honor and even less compensation.   Richard Penn Smith wrote more than 20 plays but is best remembered today for inventing much of what we know as the legend of Davy Crockett.   Robert Montgomery Bird was a physician who wrote a play for Edwin Forrest that became the basis for plays and movies into the 21st century; Forrest became rich, while Bird became an embittered man.   Robert Taylor Conrad was a polymath whose writing was praised by Edgar Allen Poe and whose play Aylmere, or Jack Cade became another favorite of Edwin Forrest's.  He also served as Mayor of Philadelphia at the time of consolidation.   George Henry Boker was one of Philadelphia's most accomplished men – poet, playwright, politician, and co-founder of the Union League.  He also solidified copyright laws in the United States so creators could be fairly paid.  Oh – he was also minister to Turkey and Russia.   All four of these men are interred at Laurel Hill East and are little remembered today except by admirers and historians.  I tell their stories in this episode of “All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories – Curtain Up!  Four Philadelphia Playwrights”.

In this session we hear the the most amazing voice and guitar playing by Jack Cade. The storytelling moves between the songs like a low mist twisting and climbing between Oxford's spires on a late summer morning. The sun burns away the suspended droplets of water and reveals a clear, hot day. Jack is on his way from Brighton and listening to music as he drives. He arrives at the shed and is ready to share a very special evening with Warren and Ian. As the sun sets, the blues and indigoes wash the sky and we can't quite believe this has all happened. We enjoyed every moment and are now ready to share it with you. You are going to love this episode. Thank you for listening.

In William Shakespeare’s Henry VI Part 2, the character Jack Cade declares himself Lord Mortimer of London by striking London Stone and then sitting upon the stone to declare his royalty. While it makes a dramatic scene for a theatrical play, this story was based in actual history and the way Shakespeare tells the story tells us as modern theater goers something interesting about the Tudor opinion of the real Jack Cade that was present as Shakespeare was writing. While Shakespeare seems to base his plays, and his portrayal of Jack Cade, on the history of Holinshed’s Chronicles, there are some first hand accounts of people who witnessed Jack Cade’s procession into London from actual history, as well as some variances between Shakespeare’s quarto and folio versions of Henry VI Part 2 which shine light on exactly what Shakespeare thought about his colorful figure from English history.    London Stone that Jack Cade chooses to strike as he declares himself Lord of the city was more than just a passing fictional narrative by Shakespeare. The real London Stone was a major landmark for England, with native travellers using it in a similar fashion to how Big Ben is used today--people all over the world not only recognized this stop in London as a representative of England herself, but many foreign dignitaries from the 16th century went out of their way to visit London Stone as an important stop on their visit to the city. Here today to walk us through some of the portraits of Jack Cade from Shakespeare’s lifetime as well as additional items from the Medieval Collections at the Museum of London to tell us the real story of London Stone and its place in the popular culture from Shakespeare’s lifetime is our guest, John Clark

The Paston Letters are a collection of over 1,000 pieces of correspondence between 1422 and 1509 which, while never intended to last into the modern era, have been preserved throughout the centuries for the unique light they shed on the everyday events in 15th century England. John Paston was a lawyer in England, and while the letters sometimes represent the communication of John Paston to members of the aristocracy most of the letters are written by his wife Margaret, who is writing to her husband at work in London. Replete with illustrations as well as words, the letters detail mundane items like shopping lists and recipes, provide examples of medieval colloquial expressions, and perhaps the most powerful content found in the Paston Letters is their timeline of how the War of the Roses unfolded. During the late 15th century, England was effectively lawless whilst the King was paralyzed due to his surrounding nobles stifling the enforcement of law. The Paston Letters show that the government of England was hugely disorganized, with even the succession to the crown coming under contestation. This overarching discontent led to the rising of Jack Cade, and outlines the rise of the War of the Roses. Since Shakespeare’s history plays, also detail the rise of the War of the Roses, including characters like Jack Cade, and the character of Falstaff whom some scholars believe was based on a relative to the Pastons, a John Fastolf, there is often the suggestion that Shakespeare used the Paston Letters as a source for his plays. Is this true? Our guest, Rob Knee, from the Paston Heritage Society, is here this week to separate legend from fact as we explore the Paston Letters and their role in the life of William Shakespeare. 

Henry VI part 2 – Act IV Scene 1-10 Suffolk, in disguise, sets sail into exile as Jack Cade and his Kentish rebels turn the realm upside down and inside out.

Treachery! Necromancy! Pirates! Rebellion! Unmerciful executions! In Shakespeare’s Henry VI, Part 2, England takes a turn for the worse as the pitiful Henry and Humphrey, Duke of Gloucester (the O.G. Ned Stark of our tale) get taken for a ride by just about everyone, as nobles orchestrate baroque conspiracies against one another, the leader of a popular revolt puts Robespierre to shame in London as heads roll, and the War of the Roses finally breaks out. Intro music: Jon Sayles, "The Witches' Dance" (composed by anonymous); outro music: Jon Sayles, “Saltarello” (composed by anonymous). Illustrative excerpts were taken from: A Game of Thrones, Season 1, Episode 5, “A Golden Crown,” dir. Daniel Minahan; The Hollow Crown: The Wars of the Roses - Henry VI, Part 2, dir. Dominic Cooke (2016); Mark Rylance as Jack Cade from the 2017 Shakespeare Authorship Trust Conference.

Henry VI Part 2 deals with the immediate lead-up to the Wars of the Roses, with court intrigue and tons of backstabbing that results in the First Battle of St. Albans in 1455. Henry VI was an ineffectual king in the actual historical record, and Shakespeare's Henry is that to a 'T'---cuckolded by his wife and goaded into a civil war by his ill-seeming advisers, Henry's eventual downfall is telegraphed quite clearly in this play. He's surrounded by a cast of characters, from his various Dukes and Lords to his own wife, Queen Margaret, to his enemy Richard, Duke of York, to the rebel Jack Cade, who set wheels in motion toward their own separate goals that Henry could not stop on his best day. The lack of leadership from the throne leads to a power vacuum and shows the danger of "vaulting ambition" in the hands of men (and women) of loose morals. Our discussion today touches on the various characters, the source and types of power---be it from kings or "The Commons"--- and the violent nature of this installment, as well as the general strengths of this play (our favourite of the minor tetralogy). And then, in Marriage Counselling this episode, The Bicks debate the topic: Who is the protagonist, the hero, the "good guy" in Henry VI Part 2? Notes: It was not an Admiral from Star Wars that Lindsay thought Henry VI resembled; it was Grand Moff Tarkin. (Lindsay will commence with the cone of shame now...)

Have you wondered lately, “When will Whamlet get back to the thrilling saga of Henry VI?” Wonder no more, because this week we bring you 2 Henry VI 101, the much-anticipated sequel to 1 Henry VI where more people die and the Yorks and Lancasters still totally hate each other. The Rhetorical Device of the Week is prosopopoeia (aka personification); the Burbage Break is all about catch words in early modern printing practices; we (or rather, Richard of York) catch you up on the family tree; Aubrey plays a round of Line Roulette; we shout out some awesome fan mail; and (insert drumroll here) we announce THE WINNER of the #DickBracket. This episode is about as action-packed as Jack Cade's rebellion and twice as entertaining. #yourewelcome

Jack Cade's RebellionThe summer of 1450 was full of unrest in England. A failing war in France, political corruption and out of control crime left the citizens of England on edge. One man, Jack Cade, gathered together a band of followers from all classes of life and marched on London. The group presented King Henry VI a list of grievances called 'The Complaint of the Poor Commons of Kent' and demanded the King clean up the corruption and crime. What followed was a summer of battles, looting, death and betrayal pitting Jack Cade and his followers against the King and his court. Today on the Medieval Archives Podcast we discuss Jack Cade's Rebellion, the history leading up to it's beginnings, the rebellions and it's aftremath and the fate of Jack Cade. Enjoy the lesson!
