This is the term used when land was taken away from the nobility and given back to the king until the noble has earned it back. This benefitted the king as well as he would gain the profits from the land until the noble was given it back. Henry also used something called the Order of the Garter to praise his nobility, as opposed to throwing land and money at them. This was a title that effectively cost Henry nothing but it carried some honour with it. Some nobles (William Stanley) were unhappy with this reward as they saw it as an empty reward, they wanted land or money instead.
His methods included increasing the effectiveness of certain existing methods to bring income to the crown, this included: * Ordinary revenue, this came in annually from crown lands and custom duties but also included the profits of justice (fines) and feudal dues on the lands retained in return for military services. Crown lands mean that Edward gained land from nobles so if a noble was to die, the king gained his land. This situation happened many times, with the Duke of Clarence and Warwick. Custom duties are taxes on imported goods. Edward IV was innovative and was interested in business and especially key commodities: tin, wool and cloth.
It can be implied from this that Wolsey had the ability to obtain Henry’s annulment, but failed due to his lack of effort and his half-hearted approach. Furthermore, source 1 supports this view, first implying once again that Wolsey had good contacts and that he had the ability to influence them, “Stafileo has changed his opinion”. However, a lack of effort can still be seen here as he only instructed Stafileo of the facts. It is likely that source 2 is more reliable than source 1 as it was a letter written by the Duke of Suffolk who was not directly involved in the ‘Great Matter’. As the source is also from a letter, it is unlikely the Duke of Suffolk would not have feared angering Wolsey as otherwise the letter would have been private.
How successful was Edward VI in restoring royal authority in the period to 1470? Edward IV enjoyed successes and also failures in restoring royal authority in the period to 1470. Edward had some successes in dealing with over mighty subjects, for example, his marriage to Elisabeth Woodville shows that he was not controlled by an over powering Warwick. This was important as it showed both Warwick and the rest of the country that he was not controlled by Warwick and could make his own decisions. Another way that Edward IV proved that he was not a ‘puppet king’ as Henry VI was seen as was by removing Warwick’s brother, George Neville, as chancellor.
This tradition continued into the seventeenth century as Spanish ships would come annually to bring gold and other valuables back to Spain. The Spanish colonies developed economically by using the Encomienda system. In this system, Spanish lords exploited and manipulated Native Americans and used them to do manual labor on the land. NEW ENGLAND COLONIES The English Colonies had abundant natural resources. Their economy prospered in the fur trade, fishing, lumbering, farming and other industries that produced raw materials.
I do not think this qualifies as a just statement because Parliament only composed of British representatives, and no Colonist representatives, therefore, no Colonist could back up their viewpoint or dispute any taxes enforced, only the British would have say in what would be a just or unjust tax. In addition, many of the British, who moved to the New World, inherited new ways of life and were no longer under the influence from the English—with a new
When he says there is “no thought” he means that there is nothing in the book that makes the reader think. To make a reader think, a book would have alternative meanings and hidden themes, none of which this book has. What you read is what you get with this book and there is nothing concealed behind Janie’s straight-forward story. Another instance is when Richard Wright points out the target audience of Hurston’s book and says, “In the main, her novel is not addressed to the Negro, but to a white audience whose chauvinistic tastes she knows how to satisfy. She exploits that phase of Negro life which is “quaint,” the phase which evokes a piteous smile on the lips of the “superior” race”( ¶ #5).
Manchester clearly did little, if no research, and only picked anecdotes that fulfilled what he thought the medieval times were like. The assertions that he has given throughout the book seem as if he wrote it as some sort of parody, more suited for a Monty Python movie than something might be called history. One of the many mistakes which took part in writing this book was when Manchester says "the medieval man's lack of self-ego" (page 21). If men in the medieval times had such a lack in self-ego then why would there be so many knights and men risking their life’s if not for having a big
Golding does not use a leader to represent Piggy, When Golding created the book he made it so that Piggy was an outcast but he knew what was right. Golding creates three main leaders in his novel Ralph, Jack, and Piggy but they did not become leaders by birth they became leaders through the circumstances they were put through, Ralph became leader by votes but why did Ralph get voted leader? The boys ended up following Jack but why did they? Piggy did not follow anybody he made his own rules, why was Piggy a real leader all
Gatsby fulfilled both those choices and more; thus, Daisy logically would regret her “love” for him. Fitzgerald used this love to show the criticism of social status and wealth by comparing and baiting one another, proving that love does not derive from wealth or status
