I would be thrilled for you to do a series of videos on Great Unknown Women of the Plantagenet Dynasty!! We always hear the same names again and again. Unknown Women would be refreshing!
There are so many , unknown members of the whole Plantaganet dynasty. ❤
I vote yes on a video about the great unknown women of the Plantaganet dynasty! Looking forward to it! 😊
👏 👏 👏 Lemmy, excellent video! I thoroughly enjoyed it. I absolutely loved how you laid out your interpretations and arguments. One thing I like is that you did not use the She Wolf moniker. It is often overused by historians. As a woman, I take issue with it, and do not think it is fair. She did what she had to do to survive and thrive under the immense difficulties during this period of history. Plus, a woman in the 15th century had so little power and agency.
I have watched and read the many iterations of Margaret Beaufort story.
Excellently researched and well-balanced. I love ❤️ how I can learn more historical facts. The gravitas and complexity of this great woman's life.
The video was thought-provoking too. I like that, quite a bit.
I do concur with the other comments on a video about the Unknown Plantagenet Women.
Add my enthusiastic vote to the others who want to see more Great and Influential, but otherwise obscure women of the Wars of the Roses! Especially considering the quality of the videos you have done with the better known women, such as Elizabeth Woodville and Margaret Beaufort.
Everything seems to point to Margaret being a co-regent, but I think she did so quietly — Henry had spent a LOT of his life in exile, and did not know anything about the court, its politics and factions. England itself was something of a mystery, because he had spent so much time abroad. Margaret was his most trusted advisor, because she had the most amount of knowledge about court, and about England itself, and because she had worked so hard to make him King, once Richard III took power from Edward V.
I think she would have done her work quietly, diligently backing Henry, because if she did so TOO boldly, it would have undermined his authority and power. After all, Elizabeth of York did not become Queen Regnant. At the time, EVERYONE, even most of the women, believed a Queen Regnant was impossible — how could the weak, feeble mind of a woman handle that amount of authority? Nothing could be said, however, about the power behind the throne. Henry VII, however, was smart enough to realize that he would still be in Brittany, or even dead, without Margaret's shrewd intelligence and political instincts. She had made him King of England, and he NEVER forgot it.
An excellent video about one of the greatest women in the history of the country.
A video about her mother would be good — she is a rather neglected woman. If you do don’t forget to include the effigy of her third husband Lord Welles! (It is in my home area)
I would love to see a series about the lesser known women of the Plantaganent (spelling??) era!!
And all the people said. Yes, more please. The human spirit intrigues me.
Yes, please, as to lesser known women of the Plantagenet family.
Plantagenent women, please!
It is nice to see more around the contributions women made to history at these times as they tend to be under the radar in studies of earlier centuries 👍
Two Margarets' kept the Red Rose flame burning, Margaret of Anjou then Margaret Beaufort.
Let's talk the Stanleys'.
👉 Their rise took place in the 1300's during the Hundred Years War, as mercenary captains.
👉 Their seat was Knowsley and nearby Lathom.
Their rise was steady. Through marriage Thomas Stanley's first wife was Eleanor Neville sister of the Kingmaker.
That allied them with the Yorkists.
👉Both sides summoned them, Queen Margaret and the Neville family. At Blore Heath they sat at the side, Thomas Stanley neutral but William Stanley joined in, on the Yorkist side. With his in-law, Richard Neville senior. Later William Stanley fought at Towton.
I went to school in Bury, not far from Knowsley.
👉 Bury and it's castle was held by Thomas Pilkington. Thomas fought on the Yorkist side at Bosworth Field and was in the Richard III cavalry charge. Unlike his master, Thomas Pilkington survived the cavalry charge.
👉 The Stanleys hit the A-List at Bosworth being made Earl of Derby.
👉 Thomas Pilkington was attainted and his property given to Thomas Stanley, they still own it, though Bury Castle was left to ruin.
Thomas Pilkington later joined the Lambert Simnel rebellion and sadly did not survive the final battle of the Wars of the Roses, Stoke Field in 1487.
Lady Margaret Beaufort therefore came into property in Manchester were she paid for carved angels under the roof of Manchester Cathedral.
The Stanleys henceforth were linked with the Church, particularly the Bishopric of Ely. A later Stanley the Reverend John Stanley founded the school I went to, in the 1740's. One of the four Houses was Stanley.
A later Stanley Earl of Derby, Thomas Stanley the 7th Earl, was a prominent Royalist General in the English Civil War (contemperaneous with the German Thirty Years War) and took part in the Siege of Manchester and his family's heirloom.
👉Prince Rupert of the Rhine camped nearby at Didsbury the day before the battle of Marston Moor.
(Towton was the biggest battle in England, Marston Moor, the second).
👉 What's in a name, a badge and English pubs?
The White Boar = Richard III.
The Blue Boar = John De Vere, Earl of Oxford (Lancastrian victorious general at Bosworth Field & Stoke Field).
The White Hart = badge of Richard II and also of the Stanleys.
The Eagle & Child = Another pub name for the Stanleys alluding to the Lathom Legend.
👉 The Stanleys have played a prominent part in politics and sport.
👉 They provided 3 Prime Ministers including one when Victoria became queen.
👉 A Stanley has a famous horse race named after him — The Derby.
Another Stanley who was Governor General of Canada donated the oldest sporting trophy in North America > the Stanley Cup = ice hockey.
Supposedly a note left.
Under the tent of John Howard on the eve of Bosworth Field.
"Jockey of Norfolk be not so bold for Dickon thy master, has been bought and sold."
* Another rhyme.
" The cat (Catesby), the rat (Ratcliffe) and Lovell the dog rule all England under the hog (Richard III).
Sadly Catesby did not survive Bosworth Field.
As for Lord Lovell there's a mystery. He survived Stoke Field by swimming the Trent then nothing more is heard of him.
Though in Minster Lovell his house, a skeleton was found in a secret room sat at a desk.
Margaret Beaufort, Henry VII and Elizabeth of York had a narrow escape from fire. They were celebrating Christmas at Richmond Palace and Henry VII in particular escaped a couple of falling roof beams on 23rd December 1497.
Henry VII's apochryphal escape.
Henry VII was visiting his mother Margaret Beaufort and her husband Thomas Stanley at Knowsley.
They had gone up to the roof when Stanley's jester whispered in his ear "Remember Will".
Sadly William had turned back to his earlier allegiance when a York collar with white roses and an amount of money had been found in his keeping during the Perkin Warbeck Plot then executed.
Please note Christopher Urswick, priest, from near Kendal, was another confessor to Lady Margaret Beaufort. Attributed to being the go-between not only between Margaret and Bishop John Morton in exile but actually got the message to Henry Tudor in Brittany to make a bolt for it and escape but also the person to get Polydore Vergil to write Margaret Beaufort's history of the Lancastrian/Tudor Succession. Upon her virtues was public relations making sure it was her version that history remembers and was given a later helping hand in that by William Shakespeare.
Something the Ricardians struggle with.
Beaufort Motto.
"Remember, always remember".
This episode was truly fascinating! I knew the bare bones of the story. Your complex historical detail and storytelling style brought me right into the whole history. Thank you so much! Looking forward to your next one.
The caveat against claiming the throne was not part of the act of Parliament passed in Richard II’s reign. The act is available online through the Parliament of Westminster website. It does not bar the Beauforts from the throne at all.
The attempt to bar them from the throne was apparently something Henry IV tried to do. It is of doubtful legitimacy.
