	Thomas More - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Both More's and Shakespeare's works are controversial among modern historians for their exceedingly unflattering portrayal of King Richard, a bias due at least in part to the authors' allegiance to the reigning Tudor dynasty, which had wrested the throne from Richard at the end of the Wars of the Roses.
		On the death in 1502 of Henry's elder brother, Arthur, Prince of Wales, Henry became heir apparent to the English throne and married his brother's widow, Catherine of Aragon, daughter of the Spanish king, as a means of preserving the English alliance with Spain.
		More was beatified by the Pope in 1886 and canonized in 1935.

		More argued that the motion of a body was an inherent property of that body, and that it was impossible for motion to be transferred from one body to another.

		More, who was about 30 years older than Newton, often returned to his home town of Grantham and when he did so he lived with one of the two Clark brothers.

		More also took issue with Descartes over the existence of a vacuum, how motion is transmitted from one body to another, his mechanistic account of animal nature (More believed animals had souls), the infinity of the universe, and final causes.
		More’s philosophical commitment to dualism and, in particular, his Christian Platonist aim of demonstrating the existence of spiritual substance meant that he regarded materialists of all kinds as natural philosophical enemies, be these ancient, such as Epicurus or modern, such as Hobbes and Spinoza.
		Against Hobbes More argued that the idea of spirit was as intelligible as that of body, framing his definition of incorporeal substance in terms obverse to the defining attributes of corporeal substance, that is to say in terms comprehensible to a materialist.

		Henry also petitioned, in the event of his becoming free, a dispensation to contract a new marriage with any woman even in the first degree of affinity, whether the affinity was contracted by lawful or unlawful connexion.
		Henry had now no choice but to put his great matter into the hands of Wolsey, and Wolsey, although the whole divorce policy ran counter to his better judgment, strained every nerve to secure a decision in his master's favour.
