Kingship, court and society at the dawn of the modern age: the Chamber Books of Henry VII and Henry VIII, 1485-1521

³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ

¡°The expense and receipt books of the King¡¯s Chamber (the Chamber Books) are the single most important source for understanding both the public rule (kingship, government, and state finance ¨C including the infamous ¡®bonds and recognisances¡¯) and the private life (material culture, alms-giving, and the rhythms of daily life at court) of Henry VII and Henry VIII between 1485 and 1521,¡± James Ross, senior lecturer in late medieval history at the University of Winchester told ³ÉÈËVRÊÓƵ. ¡°While long used by historians, their complexity and bulk mean that they have never been used systematically. My collaborator, Sean Cunningham at the National Archives, and I have long been interested in the politics and government of early Tudor England, and I have always been rather suspicious of some of the standard portrayals of both kings. The project hopes to shed new light on Henry VII, particularly a more nuanced interpretation of the novelty of his methods, his success in controlling his subjects, and the glamour of his court, which is usually unflatteringly contrasted with that of his son, Henry VIII.¡±
