"What Changed Henry VIII"?
Description:
Why did Henry VIII of England metamorphose from a dashing and compassionate Renaissance prince to a gluttonous, ruthless despot? Could it be that a succession of disasters which included the death of his wife and son, a jousting accident, and a rebellion aggravated the latent flaws in his character? Join Suzannah Lipscomb, Research Curator, Hampton Court Palace, and the Center for Renaissance & Baroque Studies for a lively discussion of the impact that one year exerted on the psyche of King Henry VIII.
