Slide4

What was Henry like as a young king?

When you know what a hero he now shows himself, how wisely he behaves, what a lover he is of justice and goodness, what affection he bears to the learned I will venture to swear that you will need no wings to make you fly to behold this new and auspicious star. Oh, my Erasmus, if you could see how all the world here is rejoicing in the possession of so great a prince…you could not contain your tears for joy…Avarice is expelled from the country. Liberality scatters wealth with bounteous hand. Our King does not desire gold or gems or precious metals, but virtue, glory and immortality.“

Lord

Mountjoy

writing to his former tutor Erasmus, May 27, 1509.

Early life and education

Read ”Early life of Prince Henry” (Ferriby p.41)How well did Henry’s early life and education prepare him for kingship?Prayer book illustration thought to show Henry mourning his mother’s death in 1503, with his sisters nearby

Slide8

Not the eldest son (the spare not the heir) – expected to be an archbishop not a king.Became heir to the throne at age eleven on death of his brother Arthur (1502).He then lived at Richmond Palace under the close supervision of his father and grandmother.Not given responsibilities to prepare him for day-to-day duties of ruling: “unseasoned and untrained in the exacting art of kingship” (J.J. Scarisbrick)
