If she had support, I believe she would never develop a skill to be a true Queen...At least that is my humble opinion

Check out "The Fall of Anne Boleyn" by Claire Ridgeway. She makes a case that those in court who hated Anne conspired to turn Henry against her. Like a month before Anne was arrested Henry was still pushing for her to be accepted. He had his mistress, which was normal, but Anne was his Queen. Ultimately, she was set up by rumors and hearsay, the most serious charge being treason, which the King could not ignore. His marriage to Jane Seymour was a good old-fashioned rebound.

Catherine of Arragon....gotta feel sympathy for her. Even though Henry didnt technically execute her, he surely sent her to her death. He spent years trying to get rid of her, she had so many babies that died in eutero or shortly after birth, and was publicly shunned by the man she had loved for many years.

@@destinationmobileone5476 sorry then, my bad 😂 I tend to think it's a very complex issue , nor Anne is a saint and Henry a pig , both are to blame. What plays a perhaps crucial role in this matter is period in which it's set, we can't judge based on standards of a today's modern age, we must have in mind how things were at their era, how men especially kings were allowed to have mistresses and marriages were a matter of politics and strategy and not love, how princesses were traded between the suitable candidates without any say in the matter and many other aspects. I first judged Katherine and saw her refusal to accept his desire to remarry as a pathetic wife without any dignity, for God's sake he doesn't want you suck it up and move on , that is what I thought but given the period would she be allowed to leave him and to walk away, would her own family take her back , we don't know, after all she was sent to England as a way of a alliance between the two countries, would she be seen as a failure? And Anne by wanting to marry him chose the different path, as opposed to her own sister who was just one of many mistresses King had and apparently even called great prostitute, it is wrong for Anne to want to be more than a one of the many mistresses , again very complex issue with neither or both to blame

Like many, Anne Boleyn fascinated me because she was determined to shape her own destiny, despite the circumstances. She saw what happened to her sister as Henry's mistress and did not want that same fate. She was a woman of her times, hence a good marriage and family. Also, the king's rule was law - whatever (or whomever) he wanted - he got.

I am absolutely in love with the story of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. The very idea that Henry was willing to change the very course of history and defy the Catholic Church for Anne, only to order her execution, fascinates me.

I mean, in that era, once you had accused on something, with so many tortures, whether you were guilty or not, they will tortured you so bad and you finally confessed guilty with a hope that they would released you from pain, alive or death. But for what i want to believe that henry had loved anne very much, he even broke with rome (causing his country in a great danger at that time by breaking up with rome) and wanted to wait for 7 years just to marry Anne Boleyn.

In one of the previous documentaries (Plantagenets - Bloodiest Dynasty or Wars of the Roses, don't remember), the single instance I've seen Dan Jones handling a document in gloves, was when he was in France. Probably there's a different approach to that matter across the Channel, or on the Continent altogether. And I guess, French surely have as vast amount of historic material to take care of as British.

No, it is a misconception that rare old books are most properly handled with gloves. Gloves can actually do more harm than good as they remove deterity and can result in torn pages. It is generally recommended that the books be handled with freshly washed but thoroughly dried hands. The oils and acids on our skin will not deteriorate the books any further as those things have already been introduced when the books were originally handled. The rare books collection doesn't have a parade of people going in and out every day, they are not handled that often so the amounts introduced over the years are really negligible. Most of these books aren't as fragile as you believe they are, most damage comes from improper storage such as exposure to high humidity. Now if the books are already in bad shape then the librarian may decide to limit or even completely prohibit handling except by special permission.

I think Anne was at best offended, perhaps heartbroken, when Henry stopped her marriage to Harry(Hotspur)Percy, and she in a naive way, decided to rebel and resist him. In addition she had the example of her sister Mary as a warning not to be the king’s mistress. In the end she boxed herself into an impossible situation. I’ve seen research that she even tried to become a nun instead. It’s interesting that the “charges” against her were both so far fetched and yet were obviously designed to give him a revulsion toward her. You can imagine the writers saying to each other,” It’s not enough. Adultery? With only 1 or 2? She’ll bamboozle him into forgiving her. Let’s make it 4, and make it incest. He CAN’T forgive that”. Remember too the accusation of witchcraft which was a subject of horror and extreme fear. And the charges were made at a time when he was starting to be disillusioned with her, the first flush of romance was over and he was definitely middle aged. It’s perhaps an irony, but I’ve always thought it admirable Henry didn’t arrange for Catherine’s death. It also must have been clear to his supporters that he would not even condone it. And yet it would have been so simple. And in fact, the only wives he caused to have executed were, at least provably to him, aldultresses, which was an accusation that threatened the stability of the crown.

Any documentary that suggests that Anne and Henry were "lovers" in their opening title is not credible at all and shouldn't be given any air space. Anne Boleyn was NOT his lover. Henry VIII was a narcissist and emotionally abusive monster who harrassed that woman until she had no option to give in. Today it would be called harrasment.

There was a legal case for the dispensation to be invalid. If the marriage between Arthur and Katherine had been consumated, the dispensation (who had been made in a hurry) had legal flaws. If the marriage was not consumated, a dispensation was the wrong legal document (it needed a declaration of Public Honesty to be issued right after the death of Arthur). Henry's problem, other than Emperor Charles V having the Pope under his thumb, was his own arrogance. Instead of quibbling legal details, he set out to prove that he knew better than the Pope what was legal to dispense, so he offended many people in the Curia. Also, the Pope gave him a solution in private: Marry Anne without annulment and wait until the political situation changes and I can legalise the annulment and legitimise the children, but Henry was again too arrogant to accept the pragmatic approach.

Yes, he wanted it reversed. He expected Wolsey (who practically ran the country) to handle it, but Wolsey failed, so Henry, with Anne's help, made himself head of the Church of England, breaking with Rome, who excommunicated him. Later,, Henry had the marriage to Anne annulled, saying they were never truly married, so how could she have (supposedly) committed adultery? Henry was tired of Anne and smitten with Jane Seymour. He told Thomas Cromwell to get rid of her. So Cromwell framed 4 of Henry's closest friends as well as poor Mark Smeaton.

God watching Henry 8th, laughs and says “hold my heavenly beer. I’m going to make England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 the land of QUEENS.” 👑

I've been hooked with Henry and Anne's story. Surely, a man will make every effort, crush people and will do everything just to sleep with a woman and to leave him when he's done. Man indeed has literally a HISTORY about these things. And Anne is very ambitious too, her ambitions led her to her death.

He was convinced that his marriage was tainted and not blessed by God (because of how it started). The Seymour’s were in his ear as were his advisors. It’s a delicious irony that Anne’s daughter became the BEST Tudor monarch of all.

All that is known after her banishment is that there was never any communication, that she never visited Anne or any relatives after they were arrested, and that she died in her 40s.

That's a misconception, handling rare old books with gloves is something mainly only done in movies to convey to the audience that the book is indeed old & rare. However, librarians generally recommend that rare old books are best handled with clean dry hands. As another poster said, gloves can do more harm than good because they remove dexterity and can result in torn pages. These books are not handled that often so the addition of the tiny amount of acid & oils from skin is negligible, plus those things have already been introduced to the books, any damage that would cause has already been done. What actually causes the most damage is improper storage such as allowing the book to become exposed to moisture. If the book is already in bad condition then the librarian may choose to limit or even prohibit handling except by special permission.

Anne was complicit in a lot of the cruelty against Catherine (remember the yellow dress). I’m sorry for what happened to Anne but CoA is my Tudor Queen.

Poor Anne, died in the end in the hands of his husband... From pure love changed into hate, just because she couldn't give him a son :'( tragic

My only irk with this doc is the complete writing off of Mary Boleyn. Her and Henry didn't have a short fling. They were together for 5 years. Her told oldest children are Henry's. To the point where contemporaries would comment how much they looked like their 'not'-dad Henry.

Glad I found this Excellent
