First published by Batsford in 1986 this book went through two revised editions with Headstart History
and the Davenant Press. The new edition of this standard work on the Tudor Court includes new chapters. Nevertheless what
David Loades wrote on the court in the 2003 Preface remains true.
In looking at the
court we see themes of perpetual conflict between the need for magnificence and the danger of runaway costs.. demands
of patronage and access on the one hand and the need for control and security on the other. The Tudor monarchy was more institutionalised
than most…but remained a personal monarchy in the flamboyant renaissance mode … the court
remained the epicenter of politics, fashion and fortune….the centre of government and policy making. (Illustration
