a programme about Thomas more? a bit of balance to mantel..

[@evilcraftknife5705]

I love the momentary loss of words displayed by a little stutter every now and then where he gets a little bit exited with his own story telling. The difference with this guy and others is the deep understanding of context versus knowledge of facts. Keep 'em coming Dr. Starkey, I'm addicted.

[@MikeTheD]

Yeah his attempts at an original take is what I appreciate. It's his story, based on his trove of facts, rather than a rehashed version. I'm OK with those rehashed versions, so it's more about giving credit where its due instead of an insult to those.

David Starkey is such a brilliant intellect and communicator. Everything he shares is so insightful.

[@DidWeFail]

David Starkey doesn't need the money, he's doing this for the public good. We all owe him a huge debt of gratitude for this, lesser men wouldn't have bothered.

[@PeterSt1954]

I think many people who are not on KZbin for the income quite legitimately need support to allow them to spend time and money producing good quality content rather than other activity that would earn them (probably more) money. If, instead of producing five profitable books, an author produces four profitable books plus a load of videos it is not unreasonable for them to receive income from the videos to at least partly compensate them for that loss. Video income is not very great for the time and effort involved. I suspect many people, like David Starkey, would be producing videos if they didn't get a penny piece for them. Passion for, and ability in a subject - plus the will to communicate that passion - creates many books and videos that do nothing for the author's finances. For many authors self-satisfaction and the esteem of their peers and followers is all they ever get (plus the very occasional professorship and even tenure) for their efforts.

Whilst spending a short time at a secondary modern in the 60's, I always loved history. I forget the reason but here's what happened after I'd handed a history homework essay in. My Uncle was a Bevan Boy and had a pit pony. Now I do forget how the subject came about but I asked my Uncle about his time in the mines and his pit pony. My teacher, on returning it back to me stated that I had made the whole thing up. Mum reminded me that I was highly indignant and informed my teacher, "it was his pit pony, do you want to argue with him." (the pony refused to go into the pit one day and that refusal saved my Uncle's life when there was a massive cave in and no one came out alive). I would have loved to hear Dr Starkey's response to my essay! I went to Uni aged 40 and history was my major.

[@monicacall7532]

What a thought provoking talk. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. My first introduction to Cromwell was the film “A Man For All Seasons” in which Thomas More is all but deified and Cromwell comes across as a villain of the worst possible kind. Other films, TV presentations and books (both fiction and non-fiction) continued to paint Thomas Cromwell in the deepest shades of black in order to underscore his evil nature. Imagine my complete surprise when I read “Wolf Hall” and the other two books in the Cromwell trilogy as well as Diarmaid MacCullough’s excellent biography of Cromwell and discovered a very different man than the one that I had previously known! Sir Thomas More was also a very different individual than the shining hero that playwright Robert Bolt had led me to know. I must confess that I find Cromwell a bit of a chameleon. As he advanced in King Henry’s service it seems to me that he became torn more and more often by placating and carrying out the wishes of an increasingly capricious and narcissistic ruler on one hand while trying to live true to his own principles and setting the proper example for Gregory, Richard and Rafe as well their families plus his other dependents and household staff members. He would also have had to been aware at some level, too, that the men that he worked with in government, especially those members of the nobility who never let him forget his humble beginnings, would’ve been thrilled to see him make a mistake that would’ve caused him to lose face before Henry. That kind of constant pressure must have been difficult to bear. I’ve often wondered how he dealt with it or if he dealt with it. His fall was shocking to me not only in its speed but also because so many of the men that he had helped to rise in the government and whom he had treated almost as family either openly turned against him or refused to stand up for him in his time of need. And of course Henry regretted executing him not long after his death. Cromwell was no knight in shining armor, but he deserved a much better ending than the one that he received at the end of his life.

[@graphiquejack]

Cromwell didn’t deserve to die for his role in getting the king to marry Anne of Cleves, but perhaps he did for the trumped up case he invented to take down Anne Boleyn. I find it hard to have much sympathy for him. He like virtually every member of court was ruthless and willing to step over others to get ahead, so if he fell victim to that himself, so be it. But in the end, Henry needs to shoulder the most blame for having all the power and allowing an environment where factions not only debated for power, but tore each other apart like rabid animals in a cockfight.

David, thank you for this. I appreciate him bring up Mantel because her books and stories are just that, stories. They are made up fiction, that try to put an outlook on the 16th century. More, as David states, was always the more brilliant man. One is orthodox so in today’s culture he is the villain. More outshines Cromwell in almost all aspects in life. It’s a fact. However, Cromwell was great at his job and a cunning man. Interesting listen!

[@graphiquejack]

I actually find both More and Cromwell to be pretty ruthless and not particularly likable however they were creatures of the time and in order to thrive in Tudor England, you had to step over a lot of other people. The problem with that was you made plenty of enemies who would leap at the chance to step over you.

[@eddiecorrigan3619]

@@graphiquejack I appreciate your opinion. I just disagree about More. He was a humanist, friends of Erasmus, writer of Utopia and other great theological works, etc. How one can truly tell he was a great man- 2 reasons: He kept his reputation even in Tudor and Elizabethan England as a Catholic martyr and he is not only a saint in the Catholic Church, but also COE.

[@AMinibot]

@@eddiecorrigan3619 Respectfully, I think if your categorisation of More as a great man is dependent in a large part on him being a revered religious figure, it is potentially more subjective than you've presented it here. Whether people agree with you that he was an admirable person may well depend on whether they consider the values of the religions that venerate him (socio-cultural values, not just scriptural ones) to be worthwhile. I agree that he was an admirable man by the standards of his time. I'm just not so certain that that translates into him being someone who is universally a figure worthy of admiration.
