	Britannia: Monarchs of Britain (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Henry VIII, born in 1491, was the second son of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York.
		Henry married the pregnant Anne Boleyn in 1533; she gave him another daughter, Elizabeth, but was executed for infidelity (a treasonous charge in the king's consort) in May 1536.
		Henry was beloved by his subjects, facing only one major insurrection, the Pilgrimage of Grace, enacted by the northernmost counties in retaliation to the break with Rome and the poor economic state of the region.

	Henry VIII of England - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Born at the Palace of Placentia at Greenwich, Henry was the third child of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York.
		Henry VII was still eager to maintain the marital alliance between England and Spain through a marriage between Henry, Prince of Wales and Catherine.
		Henry was almost certainly the inspiration for the title of the popular song "I'm Henery the Eighth, I Am" (1911), recorded by Harry Champion and later by Herman's Hermits; the actual song, however, is about a man named Henry whose wife has been married to seven different individuals, all named Henry.

		Henry, determined to provide a male heir to the throne, decided to divorce Katharine and marry Anne Boleyn.
		The king wished to invalidate the marriage on the grounds that the papal dispensation under which he and Katharine had been permitted to marry was illegal.
		Henry forced the Scots to agree to a treaty (1543) of marriage between Mary Queen of Scots and his own son, Edward, but this was to come to nothing.

	History of the Monarchy > The Tudors > Henry VIII
		Henry VIII was born at Greenwich on 28 June 1491, the second son of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York.
		Henry's interest in foreign policy was focused on Western Europe, which was a shifting pattern of alliances centred round the kings of Spain and France, and the Holy Roman Emperor.
		To some, Henry VIII was a strong and ruthless ruler, forcing through changes to the Church-State relationship which excluded the papacy and brought the clergy under control, thus strengthening the Crown's position and acquiring the monasteries' wealth.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Henry VIII
		When, however, Charles V was successful, the French king could not afford to quarrel with Henry, and a somewhat hollow and insincere renewal of their friendship took place in June, 1520, at the famous "Field of the Cloth of Gold", when the most elaborate courtesies were exchanged between the two monarchs.
		William Knight, the king's secretary, was sent to Pope Clement VII to sue for the declaration of nullity of his union with Catherine, on the ground that the dispensing Bull of Julius II was obreptitious -- i.e.
		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.

		The King’s board will take all night to serve and eat and will be the fulcrum of the evening with Henry and his band of players filling in the evening.
		Henry’s dislike for massive meals is well recorded by historians; the swan stuffed with other fowl is only for large banquets where we English were trying to impress visiting foreign dignitaries.
		Henry’s Board, an evening of Tudor food and entertainment with Henry VIII and Tapestry of Music is at Samlesbury Hall, near Preston on 16 September 2005.

	Jane Seymour: Biography, Portraits, Primary Sources
		Her father was Sir John Seymour of Wolf Hall in Wiltshire; he served in the Tournai campaign of 1513 and accompanied Henry VIII to the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 1520.
		The Seymour rise to prominence at Henry's court mirrored that of the Boleyns; it was the path sought by all English families with a minor pedigree or clever son.
		There were rumors that she would not dine alone with the king, insisting always upon a chaperone, and that she responded to a particularly bold flirtation by reminding the king of his marriage.

	Tudor Monarchs: King Henry VIII
		So Henry VIII, crowned king at the prime of his life, just eighteen years old and physically magnificent with more enthusiasm and energy than most of his contemporaries, became a conflicted and confused man. But it is a shame to let the last twenty years of his life color the interpretation of his entire life.
		Henry was formally promised in marriage to Katharine on 23 June 1503; the treaty stated that he would marry Katharine on his fifteenth birthday, 28 June 1505, and that her parents send over 100,000 crowns worth of plate and jewels in addition to the dowry she had given when married to Prince Arthur.
		Henry's younger sister Mary, the most beautiful of the Tudor children, had been betrothed to Ferdinand's nephew, the duke of Burgundy, but now Henry made peace with France and promised Mary to Louis XII, three times her age and suffering from gout.

		Henry VIII has been a subject of interest and study for centuries.
		Henry VIII has worn many faces since he came to the throne in 1509.
		Though many of Henry's actions seem brutal and repulsive to us now, it should be remembered that he lived in a time when rulers were absolute, and a bear baiting or execution involving drawing and quartering was considered an afternoon's entertainment for the average Englishman.

		King Henry VIII has one of the fullest theatrical histories of any play in the Shakespeare canon, yet has been consistently misrepresented, both in performance and in criticism.
		King Henry VIII was based on the life of the notoriously known King Henry the eight of England.
		The play King Henry VIII by William Shakespeare is a wonderful recommendation for anyone who wishes to understand the tidings of King Henry the eight from a fictitious, historical, personal point of view, rather than from historical facts.

	CNN.com - Was Henry VIII a football lad? - Feb. 18, 2004
		Researchers have found the much-married king ordered a pair of football boots from the Great Wardrobe, the office responsible for supplying his attire, in 1526.
		The boots were made of leather, hand-stitched by the royal cordwainer, Cornelius Johnson, and cost King Henry the royal sum of four shillings.
		History's lasting image of Henry VIII, born in 1491 and married six times, is of a hugely fat man who spent his time eating, drinking and womanizing -- not of a lithe, athletic sportsman.

		She sent further assistance to Protestant factions on the continent and in Scotland following the emergence of radical Catholic groups and assisted Belgium in their bid to gain independence from Spain.
		The situation came to head after Elizabeth rejected a marriage proposal from Philip II of Spain; the indignant Spanish King, incensed by English piracy and forays in New World exploration, sent his much-feared Armada to raid England.
