...the years 1515-1525 Henry VIII wholly surrendered power in government to Cardinal Wolsey? To a certain extent within Source 4 (by J.J. Scarisbrick 1968) supports the idea that possibly Henry VIII actually did surrender power over to Wolsey. The evidence within the source that suggests this possibly for being the truth is ‘a self-indulgent King had wholly surrendered the cares of the state into the Cardinals hands’. To further support this case, it is clear that Wolsey was extremely powerful, he had vast amounts of bishoprics (Archbishop of Canterbury, Tournai, Durham just to name a few) and was the head of things such as the Star Chamber where Wolsey got himself heavily involved with. This is shown when you compared the number of cases Wolsey took on (120) compared to that of Henry VII who dealt with only 12. Also Wolsey had control of all of the state finances and could make large changes to things such as the taxation system he was able to introduce a new form of tax known as the ‘Subsidy’ which was more popular since it meant the poor payed far less tax than previously than with the old 15’s and 10’s taxation method. This new taxation method allowed Wolsey to pay for king’s foreign affairs. As well as this ‘subsidy’, since Wolsey had such significant power he was able to also raise considerable amounts of capital through other means, such as through ‘benevolences’ and enforced loans from the nobility, which raised £200,000 in 1522. This shows that Wolsey was especially powerful...

His mother Elizabeth of York and father Henry VII. The tutor dynasty is known as royal house of Welsh origin that ruled the Kingdom of England and its realms; this included the Lordship and Kingdom of Ireland, from 1485 until 1603.

...A MAN FOR ALL SEASONS A Man for All Seasons has probably enjoyed more popularity than any other English play since the war. After a run of 320 performances in the West End, it was a great success on Broadway, where it was voted the Best Foreign Play of the Year (1962). Bolt himself wrote the screenplay, cutting out the part of the Common Man, although the director was in favour of keeping him. The film was made in 1966, with Paul Scofield playing Sir Thomas More, as he had on the stage both in London and New York. It won six academy awards and had long seasons in cinemas in many parts of the world. In style, A Man for All Seasons is quite different from any of Bolt’s previous plays, but it represents a continuation of the same line of thinking about behaviour. Cherry was a man who had so completely lost touch with his ideal that he was incapable of seizing a real chance of joining fantasy and reality together by selling the house and buying an orchard. Dean was basically a good man and though he’d turned a blind eye on some of the things going on around him and made certain moral compromises for the sake of climbing the academic ladder, he’d never got completely cut off from the ideal (which is represented partly by astronomy). And the action forces him to a point where he digs his heels in and. shuts his ears to the counsels of opportunism (which are represented partly by Sir Hugo). A Man for All Seasons is a graph on which Bolt plots two curves: the steady rise of an opportunist...

Lullabies can be found in every human culture.[2] The English term lullaby is thought to come from "lu, lu" or "la la" sound made by mothers or nurses to calm children, and "by by" or "bye bye", either another lulling sound, or a term for good night.[3] Until the modern era lullabies were usually only recorded incidentally in written sources. The Roman nurses' lullaby, "Lalla, Lalla, Lalla, aut dormi, aut lacta", is recorded in a scholiumon Persius and may be the oldest to survive.[4] Many medieval English verses associated with the birth of Jesus take...
