With respect to the Princes in the tower, Sir John Knight, Sargent surgeon to Charles ii examined the remains that the workmen found under a staircase where they were working. Sir John after examination of the remains declared that indeed these were the remains of the Princes and personally placed them in an urn where they remain to this day at Westminster Abbey. (Validation with current forensics required here). Sir John Knight was my 10th great uncle.
@sonofherne4 жыл бұрын
I am glad you mentioned 'current forensics'. From an archaeology perspective, it's unlikely to be them. They were in an ancient layer 10 foot under (and remember the burial was supposed to be in secret, dug in one night--and there was a household of 150 people living in the Tower in 1483! It was not a prison as it became under the Tudors--it was a royal palace!). The Tower is on a Roman site. A child's skeleton found in the 70's was carbon-dated and it was Iron Age. If it had been found 300 years ago, it would have likely been thought to be a 'prince.'

@@marksadler4104 no, the paternity of Richard Duke of York was in doubt but Edward was indeed the father of the Princes. Nobody has never said the contrary. The problem is that he had married another woman before Elizabeth Wydeville while the first wife was still alive and that meant the marriage was invalid and children bastards. that was the marriage law of the time. The consequence is that Richard was the only legitimate heir to the throne. He was elected by Parliament, he was acclaimed king. The narrator used the word usurper... What about H7 then???

@harrietlyall19914 жыл бұрын
So fascinating! Thank you. The discovery of Richard III’s skeleton under a car park was indeed amazing. I remember it at the time and I could hardly believe it, it sounded like something from a novel or film. Detective writer Josephine Tey once wrote a book called “The Daughter of Time” in which she tried to rehabilitate the reputation of Richard III. She believed that the story of him having been hunch backed was fictitious, however we now know from his remains that it was true. If that bit of the story was fact, then it’s more likely the part about him assassinating the two princes would be substantive as well, and could one day be confirmed. Truth is indeed the daughter of time.
@floraposteschild41844 жыл бұрын
That's the first thing I thought of when the skeleton was found. Before then, the Richard-ites were every bit as convinced he was "straight and handsome" as they are about him not having the princes murdered. I usually like Tey, but The Daughter of Time reads like a weird conspiracy theory. One of the proofs more or less seriously presented is that in his portrait, Richard looks anxious or nervous, and maybe that he has something wrong with his liver or kidneys or something. As if a killer could never look like that.

Harriett Lyall, nothing could be further from the truth. Scoliosis is not kyphosis. Thousands of people around the world have scoliosis and show no outward signs unless their torso is exposed. All the claims about Richard III being a hunchback rose after his death. There are no accounts during his lifetime of any noticeable physical problems. In fact, he was known for his prowess on the battlefield. Exactly how would you fit someone with a hunchback into heavy armour and expect them to even move?
@sonofherne4 жыл бұрын
Not exactly true. He didn't have a hunchback (a pejorative word), he had scoliosis, which doesn't make you hunched over but gives you a raised shoulder--which is the only thing he was described as having by John Rous. It would have been hidden by his clothing and only became known after his body was stripped. The withered arm and limp were both pure fantasy from More and Shakespeare (neither contemporaries), as are the drawings and depictions that make him look about 60--he was 32! We'll never know about the princes but certainly other suspects have been mentioned in period documents written within a few years of the event--most notably the Duke of Buckingham. We know many things written about Richard WERE definitely nonsense--he was never going to marry Elizabeth of York, he never had his brother George drowned in Malmsey, he didn't force Anne to marry him or poison her, his didn't kill her first husband, and the death of Henry VI was on Edward's orders. Shakespeare even made him childless--in reality he had a son who died young, and he also had two illegitimate children born before his marriage, whom he acknowledged, looked after and educated, seeing that they got good positions. One of them, btw, is thought to have been imprisoned and done away with by Henry Tudor, who also killed Edward of Warwick, the son of George of Clarence, who he had banged up in the Tower since age 10. Interestingly Edward of Warwick was alive and well in Richard's household before that--he was a 'threat', born of an older brother, some would say his claim was better than Richard's--so why was he left alive if the others were killed?

@@sonofherne For one thing, Sir Thomas More was a contemporary of Richard III (More born 1478; R3 died 1485). And have a look at the skeleton: culture24.org.uk/history-and-heritage/military-history/pre-20th-century-conflict/art492851-Experts-Richard-III-battle-injuries-infirmary-remains-help-create-new-skeleton He had SEVERE scoliosis. Granted, he didn't have a withered arm, but having one shoulder far higher than the other would lead him to hold his arm in a way that would lead people to think he had. Try it yourself at home: hoist one shoulder that high, stick your head forward, and try to do things with your arm with the usual range of motion. Then try to walk around without seeming to limp. Keep that shoulder high! :)

Although there is toxicity involved and everything but their love reminds me of Pedro's love for Ines specially when Heathcliff digs Catherine's grave and sleeps beside her. Reading wuthering heights made me romanticise death(which i know is disturbing). The way people would go crazy when their loved ones die and the way they can't accept their death .The intensity of their emotions. Everything is so pure and i love it.
