Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This first installment of published correspondence between King Henry VIII and Cardinal Wolsey, published from the State Paper Archives, begins with 1518 and continues through 1530, in the midst of the Cardinal's decline and fall from grace. The book's starting point is an era when Wolsey wielded immense power, and reveals that, even then, his influence over the king was less absolute than often supposed. The depth of their relationship is examined in unprecedented detail here. The letters span Wolsey's mission to France in 1527, amidst the conflicts between Francis I and Charles V. They reflect the complex diplomatic maneuvers of the period, including Wolsey's ambitious plans for Henry to claim the title of Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. The book is abundant with insights into the culture, politics, and religious upheavals of the early 16th Century, and offers a treasure trove for scholars and general readers interested in this pivotal era.
