An Account of an Elizabethan Family
This volume is an invaluable portrait of family, kinship, regional and national dynamics in the Tudor and early Stuart period. Based on letters and papers that Cassandra Willoughby found in the family library, her Account focuses on the women of the family, and offers insight into sixteenth-century family dynamics, gentry culture and court connections.
Rewriting the Wars of the Roses
England spent much of the 15th century in a dynastic struggle between the houses of York and Lancaster, a series of wars known as the Wars of the Roses. Less than two hundred years later, the nation was again embroiled in civil war. Living in this later period, the writers John Trussell, Sir Francis Biondi and William Habington turned to the past for subject matter and chose the Wars of the Roses. All were clearly influenced by their era, but their treatments of the subject matter differed greatly, as did their aims in writing.This volume analyzes historical works by Trussell (an English lawyer), Biondi (an Italian lawyer), and Habington (an English poet and playwright). Examining Trussell's Continuation of the Collection of the History of England, Biondi's History of the English Civil Wars Between the Two Houses of Lancaster and York, and Habington's History of Edward IV, the book looks at how these authors present their common subject matter and how 17th century society influenced their interpretations. In addition, it discusses the insight these works provide on the Puritan Revolution. An appendix contains a reproduction of Caerguents Lament by John Trussell.
Bromley
Far more than just a family history, this book draws on a range of reference works to take us to next level in genealogical research methods. The author questions and challenges conventional genealogical research beliefs. He applies a style of interpretation to some of the known historical events in history, in relation to that of his own family.
