The Six Wives of Henry VIII - Newark Buttermarket - Adult Learning

About this course

Henry VIII’s six wives - we are all familiar with these women, or are we? This course will look at their lives and experiences from their perspective. You will discuss and assess whether they where they helpless tools in the hands of ambitious men? Or did they play a role in their own destinies? Come and examine the lives of these very different women; and make your own mind up. During the course, we will cover: -Introduction to 16th century England and the role of women. - Learn about the lives of these six women, the families they came from, their education and their beliefs. - Evaluate the impact the women had on the wider political, social and religious spheres. - Discover what impact, if any, did the new ideas of the 16th century have on them. - Look at a number of sources, primary and secondary as we will examine how they have been portrayed through different mediums through time
