John Guy s forte is Tudor England and this history presents an informative story of a man who pushed many social and intellectual boundaries while rigidly adhering to the narrowest of Catholic theologies More is fascinating enough but his daughter Margaret perhaps stands out even further in a society where women rarely enjoyed education or had the opportunity to engage men intellectually on anything close to an eual basis She might be the best product of home schooling in history Learning both Latin and Greek she corrected a serious error in Erasmus translation of the Bible for which he was grateful and gave her credit The bond between father and daughter was profound Her efforts preserved More s writings for posterity after his execution as a traitor he would not acknowledge Henry VIII s supremacy over the Pope or Anne Boleyn s legitimacy as ueen Margaret also bribed the jailer at the Tower of London to retrieve More s head after his execution It seems the severed heads were prominently displayed on pikes as an example to the populace but as there was a regular and growing supply they were rotated New ones would be mounted and eventually the oldest would be thrown into the Thames Margaret followed her father s progression and before it was discarded she retrieved it for proper treatment It is unlikely that any of us would expect or receive such devotion from our daughtersAn interesting sidebar in this history is that while More pursued his vision of a utopian society with enlightened but highly controlling rulers he had a brother in law who was advocating a different line He wanted laws to be written down in easily understood language so that everyone could enjoy the full benefits of a legal society The relatively new printing press could make this possible He was railing against the abuses of power and cronyism that characterized the legal system at that time In general he did not trust those who sought and held power while More seemed to believe the ruling parties could do well by the governed It just didn t always work out that way Especially for More himself Some debates never seem to change Animorphia An Extreme Colouring and Search Challenge enough but his daughter Margaret perhaps stands out Borka The Adventures of a Goose with no Feathers even further in a society where women rarely Chinese Cinderella III enjoyed Shadowed Stranger education or had the opportunity to From Sinner to Saint engage men intellectually on anything close to an The Murders in the Rue Morgue eual basis She might be the best product of home schooling in history Learning both Latin and Greek she corrected a serious His Mistletoe Bride error in Erasmus translation of the Bible for which he was grateful and gave her credit The bond between father and daughter was profound Her Octopussy and The Living Daylights execution as a traitor he would not acknowledge Henry VIII s supremacy over the Pope or Anne Boleyn s legitimacy as ueen Margaret also bribed the jailer at the Tower of London to retrieve More s head after his Octopussy execution It seems the severed heads were prominently displayed on pikes as an Fifth Avenue Uptown Tale Blazers example to the populace but as there was a regular and growing supply they were rotated New ones would be mounted and Power Engineering eventually the oldest would be thrown into the Thames Margaret followed her father s progression and before it was discarded she retrieved it for proper treatment It is unlikely that any of us would The Outlander Series OutlanderDragonfly in AmberVoyagerDrums of AutumnThe Fiery CrossA Breath of Snow and AshesAn Echo in the Bone expect or receive such devotion from our daughtersAn interesting sidebar in this history is that while More pursued his vision of a utopian society with ФМ enlightened but highly controlling rulers he had a brother in law who was advocating a different line He wanted laws to be written down in 世界の終りとハードボイルド・ワンダーランド Sekai no owari to hādoboirudo wandārando easily understood language so that Crome Yellow everyone could The Story Within enjoy the full benefits of a legal society The relatively new printing press could make this possible He was railing against the abuses of power and cronyism that characterized the legal system at that time In general he did not trust those who sought and held power while More seemed to believe the ruling parties could do well by the governed It just didn t always work out that way Especially for More himself Some debates never seem to change

A Daughter's Love Thomas and Margaret More Free read Ç PDF, DOC, TXT, eBook or Kindle ePUB free John Guy ☆ 2 Free download Read A Daughter's Love Thomas and Margaret More This book will break open a secret It is a gripping tale of love loyalty and domestic. This book intrigued me because I know the story where Meg goes to The Tower and retrieved her father s head after it had been on Traitor s Gate I know the story about More and Henry VIII but I was hoping to learn about the man s personal life which I did His daughter Meg made sure his writings and letters were preserved and published which helps us understand the man This covers details about Utopia which I enjoyed I believe he and his daughter Meg were brilliant even if I didn t always agree with their views Besides being the King s Lord Chancellor he was social philosopher lawyer and humanist His friendship with the philosopher Erasmus is covered in this book I was intrigued how his mind worked too be so Catholic but to insist on women s education to dream up a fictional Utopia and trick the world then to turn around and to burn heretics to help their souls He was definitely an interesting man I believe the first socialist of his time I know how books were banned but this goes into detail about what they had to go through to be published An interesting part of the book is where Wolsey stepped in and helped Meg when she was arrested for publishing her book Even though it was dry in parts I enjoyed it
