Humanism in the Age of Henry VIII
Av Maria Dowling, 2025.Del av serien Routledge Revivals.
First published in 1986, Humanism in the Age of Henry VIII is concerned with the flourishing humanism outside the religious and political spheres in many different fields and its intellectual and cultural impact on the schools and universities and in the realm of private study, paying particular attention to English contacts with European humanists. It is notorious that the renaissance reached England comparatively late but in the early sixteenth century the new learning was enthusiastically welcomed by the young Henry VIII and Katherine of Aragon.
During Henry's long reign both the religious emphasis of humanism and the King?s needs changed and this book investigates the relation of humanists to religious policy. The qualities and accomplishments of the renaissance gentleman are also considered, as is the influence of the new learning on the studies and status of women. This is an important historical reference work for scholars and researchers of British history.
