This book widens the scope of established historiography by examining the dynamics of Tudor power and assessing where power really lay. By considering the roles of the monarch, church and individuals it sheds a fascinating light on the study of government in 16th century England. Addressing different aspects of how Tudor England was governed, the twelve chapters discuss who participated in that government, and the extent of their power and governance. Paying close attention to the scholars who have shaped perceptions of major Tudor political figures, this book re-situates the dynamics of Tudor power and its historiography"-- $c Provided by publisher. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Politics and government $y 1485-1603. 650 0 $a Power (Social sciences) $z England $x History $y 16th century. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x History $y Tudors, 1485-1603. 651 0 $a Great Britain $x Historiography. $y Tudors, 1485-1603 $x Historiography. 600 30 $a Tudor, House of. 648 7 $a 1485-1603 $2 fast 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bernard, G.W., $t Who ruled Tudor England $b First edition. $d London ; New York : Bloomsbury Academic, 2021. $z 9781350176928 $w (DLC) 2021006754 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220902015606.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AE51776E533D11EC9185B7CB4CECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
