The book reviews Thomas WolseyÂ’s record as the realmÂ’s leading Churchman, Lord Chancellor and political patron and thereby demonstrates how and why Wolsey became central to HenryÂ’s government for 20 years. By analysing WolseyÂ’s role in key events such as the Field of Cloth of Gold, the study highlights how significant Wolsey was in directing and conducting EnglandÂ’s foreign relations as the kingÂ’s most trusted advisor. Based on up-to-date research, Richardson not only newly appraises the circumstances of WolseyÂ’s fall but also challenges accusations of treason made against him. This study provides a new appreciation of WolseyÂ’s importance as a cultural and artistic patron, as well as a royal administrator and politician; roles which helped to bring both Henry VIII and England to the forefront of foreign relations in the early-sixteenth century.

Presenting Wolsey in his contemporary and historiographical contexts more fully than any currently available study, Wolsey is perfect for students of Tudor England.
