Magnificence: A Tale of Two Henrys - Dr Simon Thurley

[@alsan623]

Thank you for sharing the lecture / presentation, very interesting.

Thanks for the presentation, it is nice to learn where these terms originate. The "privy chamber" began as a bubble for the king's liberty and ended as another petri dish for bureaucratic mold to grow in.

Very interesting lecture, looking forward to the autumn one to follow. Thank you!

Fascinating and compelling, but the viewer can't see what he is drawing their attention to in the pictures shown, which detracts from what is obviously a scholarly and original take on The Tudor world.

As pointed out already, it is , sadly, hard to follow what Dr. Thurley is pointing out online, as ther eis no way to tell what he is pointing at, with either hands or a pointer. Also, it seems the next lecture is not available online, which is a shame

[@MoerreNoseshine]

Very nice! Just one thought: It is hard to impossible to know which area the speaker is talking about when we online viewers cannot see where he's pointing :-)

Henry VII's father's property and title were the Earldom of Richmond. His uncle Jasper was Earl of Pembroke

The Chateau "of" "de" "le" Ermine.

Henry was presented as a boy to Henry V by his mother, surely that was in a royal palace in London. So he had in fact been to a London palace.

[@stuartfaulkner5686]

I assume you mean presented to Henry VI as a boy, as Henry V had been dead for 35 years when Henry VII was born.... If you do mean that, it did not occur in London, but on a manor on the lands of Margaret d'Anjou, Henry VI's wife
