A trip back (1 gen 1485 anni – 1 gen 1499 anni)
Descrizione:
Backtracking a little, we have to understand what came before the Tudor Dynasty in order to understand this dynasty in context. It all starts with Henry the 8th taking the throne. However, his wife bore him no sons. And unfortunately, the line of succession always went to the next male in line. Wwnorton.com states “Henry requests an annulment of his marriage with Catherine from the Pope in order to marry Anne Boleyn. The request is refused. In response, Henry breaks from the authority of the Pope and is declared head of the English Church by Parliament. To cancel out the power of the Catholic church in England, he dissolves over 800 monasteries and transfers their wealth and lands transferred to the crown. Years of discord between Protestants and Catholics follow.” Therefore, the catholic church no longer controls England. And the subsequent art and literature reflects this. Before, there was only the bible and religious books. Now, the artistic world of literature has been opened up.
