Walter Hodges traces the flowering of the Tudor period, with emphasis on two events, both of which took place in 1485; first, the printer William Caxton published Sir Thomas Malory's Morte d'Arthur, and second, the Battle of Bosworth that brought Henry VII to the throne.The Civil Wars were ended, prosperity was possible, and the English could dream, with Malory, of the ideal English past of Arthurian England--a past that gave them confidence they could re-establish and even surpass. And thus, by 1603, when Henry VII grand-daughter Queen Elizabeth I died ,she left a peaceful country, rich in literature, painting, architecture, music, and strong abroad as well. 144 pages with Epilogue, Bibliography, and Index. 6.5" x 9.75 x 6.5 inches.

Description de la boutique

Books have been one of the major loves of my life so to develop a home online bookshop when my children are all grown and with families that extend our whole family, seemed the natural thing for me to do. My BookShop has many, many selections of all kinds, with emphasis on history, literature, classical works, modern classic fiction,biography and unique books. Also look in my shop for children's books, books about the sciences, art, spirituality, religion--look for whatever you want! I love books and reading and I hope you do too. Your reading enjoyment is my goal.
