texts: small number of courtiers caused discontent among the influential, and in 1387 control of government was taken over by a group of aristocrats. For the next eight years, <mask> was in harmony with his former opponents. Many of the Appellants were executed or exiled after he took his revenge. Historians have described the next two years as <mask>'s "tyranny".Henry Bolingbroke, the son of <mask> Gaunt, was disinherited by the king after he died. Henry invaded England in June 1399 with a small force. He deposed <mask> and was crowned king. <mask> is thought to have died of hunger in captivity. William Shakespeare's play Richard II portrayed <mask>'s misrule and deposition as the cause of the Wars of the Roses. Historians don't accept this interpretation and don't exonerate <mask> from responsibility for his own deposition. He may have had a personality disorder that affected him towards the end of his reign.The way in which he carried out his policies was unacceptable to the political establishment, which led to his downfall. Edward, Prince of Wales and Joan, Countess of Kent were the parents of <mask> of Bordeaux. The Battle of Poitiers in 1356 was where Edward, eldest son of <mask> and heir apparent to the throne of England, distinguished himself as a military commander. He contracted dysentery in Spain in 1370 after further military adventures. He had to return to England after recovering from his illness. <mask> was born in the English principality of Aquitaine on January 6th, 1367. Three kings were present at his birth, according to

Edward of Angoulme died in 1341. The Prince of Wales passed away in June 1376. The English Parliament was worried that John of Gaunt would take the throne. <mask> was quickly invested in the princedom of Wales and his father's other titles. King <mask>, <mask>'s grandfather, died on June 21st, 1962, at the age of 50. The 10-year-old succeeded to the throne.He was crowned on July 16th, 1377 at the abbey. Political decisions were influenced by fears of <mask> Gaunt's ambitions and a regency led by the king's uncles was avoided. Gaunt was excluded from a series of "continual council" that the king used to exercise kingship. The Earl of Buckingham, along with his younger brother Thomas of Woodstock, still held great informal influence over the business of government, but the king's councillors and friends gained control of royal affairs. The council were discontinued in 1380 after these councillors earned the trust of the Commons. Between 1377 and 1381, three poll taxes were levied that were spent on unsuccessful military expeditions on the continent. There was resentment against the governing classes in the lower levels of English society.The Peasants' Revolt was sparked by the poll tax of 1381, but the root of the conflict was caused by the economic and demographic consequences of the Black Death. In late May and early June,

The Lord High Treasurer, Robert Hales, was killed by the rebels, who were demanding the abolition of serfdom. The only feasible option for the Crown was to negotiate with the rebels, according to the king, who was sheltered in the Tower of London. It's not clear how much <mask> was involved in the deliberations, although historians think he was involved in some way. The large number of people at the banks of the river made it impossible for the king to land.After setting out by horse, he met the rebels at Mile End. The rebels continued their killings even after he agreed to their demands. The rebel leader was not convinced by the king's assurances that the demands would be met. William Walworth, the Lord Mayor of London, pulled Tyler down from his horse and killed him after the king's men grew restive. The situation became tense once the rebels realized what had happened, but the king acted with calm resolve and said "I am your captain, follow me!" He led the mob away from the scene. Walworth gathered a force to surround the peasant army, but the king granted clemency and allowed the rebels to return to their homes.The king revoked the charters of freedom and pardon and went into Essex to suppress the rebellion as the unrest continued in other parts of the country. He defeated the last rebels in a small skirmish and ended the Peasants' Revolt. <mask> had shown great courage and

The events impressed upon him the dangers of disobedience and threats to royal authority, and helped shape the attitudes of kingship that would later prove fatal to his reign. <mask> emerges clearly with the Peasants' Revolt. His first significant act after the rebellion was to marry Anne of Bohemia, daughter of Charles IV, Holy Roman Emperor. It was seen as a potential ally against France in the ongoing Years' War because of the division of Europe caused by the Western Schism.The marriage was not popular in England. The political alliance never resulted in any military victories. The marriage was not childless. Anne died from plague and was mourned by her husband. As <mask> came of age, Michael de la Pole became more involved in court and government. The De la Pole family was an upstart merchant family. <mask> created the Earl of Suffolk two years after he made him chancellor.Robert de Vere, Earl of Oxford, was one of the members of the close circle around the king. The political establishment disagreed with <mask>'s friendship with de Vere. The earl was elevated to the title of Duke of Ireland in 1368. The relationship between the king and de Vere was thought to be homosexual by the chronicler Thomas Walsingham. There was tension over the approach to the war in France. While the court party preferred negotiations, Gaunt and Buckingham urged a large-scale campaign to protect English possessions. The crusade led by Henry le Despenser failed miserably.<mask> turned his attention to France's ally,

texts: the Kingdom of Scotland. The king's expedition to the north came to nothing and the army had to return without engaging the Scots in battle. The French were prevented from invading southern England. <mask> Gaunt left England to pursue his claim to the throne of Castile in 1386 amid rumors of a plot against his person, as the relationship between <mask> and his uncle deteriorated further with military failure. With Gaunt gone, the unofficial leadership of the growing dissent against the king and his courtiers passed to Buckingham who created the Duke of Gloucester. The first crisis of 1386–88 was caused by the threat of a French invasion. Michael de la Polein requested taxation of an unprecedented level for the defence of the realm at the parliament of October that year.The parliament refused to consider any request until the chancellor was removed. The parliament was working with the support of Gloucester and Arundel. The king said he wouldn't dismiss as much as parliament wanted from his kitchen. <mask> was forced to let de la Pole go when he was threatened with a deposition. A commission was set up to review the finances of the royal family. <mask> went on a "gyration" of the country in February and November to garner support for his cause. The work of creating a loyal military power base began after de Vere was installed as Justice of Chester.He secured a ruling from the Chief Justice that parliament's conduct was treasonable. On his return to London, the king was confronted by Gloucester, Arundel and Thomas de Beauchamp, 12th Earl of

The three peers joined forces with Gaunt's son Henry Bolingbroke, Earl of Derby, and Thomas de Mowbray, Earl ofNottingham, the group known to history as the Lords Appellant. He was obliged to flee the country on December 20th, 1389, after his forces were routed. In February 1388, the Merciless Parliament sentenced Brembre and de la Polewho to death in absentia, and <mask> had no choice but to follow suit. A number of <mask>'s chamber knights were executed, as the proceedings went further.The circle of favorites around the king was broken completely by the appeals. After the deliberations of the Merciless Parliament, <mask> re-established his authority. When their efforts to build a wide, anti-French coalition came to nothing, the north of England fell victim to a Scottish incursion. <mask> could claim the right to govern in his own name because he was over twenty years old. After <mask> Gaunt returned to England in 1389, he settled his differences with the king and acted as a moderating influence on English politics. <mask> assumed full control of the government on 3 May 1389, claiming that the difficulties of the past years had been due to bad councillors. He outlined a foreign policy that sought peace and reconciliation with France, and promised to reduce the burden of taxation on the people.After

The execution of his former teacher was an insult not easily forgotten. <mask> began negotiations for peace with France after securing national stability. The English Crown had a proposal put forward in 1393 that would have greatly expanded the territory of Aquitaine. The plan failed because the requirement that the English king pay homage to the King of France was unacceptable to the English public. The truce was to last 28 years.<mask> agreed to marry the daughter of Charles VI of France when she came of age as part of the truce. The princess would not be able to inherit the throne of England for many years because she was only six years old, so there were some concerns about the betrothal. <mask> took a different approach to the situation in Ireland than he did in France. The English lordships in Ireland were in danger of being overrun by the Gaelic Irish kingdoms, and the Anglo-Irish lords were pleading for the king to intervene. <mask> stayed in Ireland until May 1395.

The parliament of September 1397 held the first trial of the three.He was condemned and executed after a fight with the king. While awaiting his trial, Gloucester was being held prisoner by the Earl ofNottingham. Gloucester was dead as the time for the trial drew near. The king is thought to have ordered him to be killed to avoid the disgrace of executing a prince of the blood. His life was spared and his sentence was reduced to life imprisonment. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Arundel, was exiled for life. <mask> took his persecution to the localities.Local men who had been loyal to the appellants were prosecuted while recruiting retainers for himself.

The House of Lancaster, represented by John of Gaunt and his son Henry Bolingbroke, was a threat to <mask>'s authority.The House of Lancaster had more wealth than any other family in England and they were likely candidates to succeed <mask>. The dispute between Bolingbroke and Mowbray broke out in the inner circles of the court. According to Bolingbroke, the two were next in line for royal retribution. Such a claim would have amounted to treason. The two dukes were exiled by <mask> at the last moment after a parliamentary committee decided that they should fight.

The Merciless Parliament's acts were declared null and void by the Parliament of Shrewsbury after <mask> summoned them. All parliamentary power was delegated to a committee of twelve lords and six commoners chosen from the king's friends, making <mask> an absolute ruler.

When the king used to be addressed simply as "highness", a new form of address was developed.On solemn festivals, <mask> would sit on his throne for hours without speaking, and anyone who looked at him had to bow their knees to the king. The inspiration for this new sumptuousness and emphasis on dignity came from the courts on the continent, not only the French and Bohemian courts that had been the homes of <mask>'s two wives, but also the court that his father had maintained while residing in Aquitaine. The inspiration for <mask>'s approach to kingship can be found in his early youth, when his authority was challenged first by the Peasants' Revolts and then by the Lords Appellant. <mask> had taken a different approach to the nobility. Edward's court was a martial one because of the interdependence between the king and his most trusted noblemen as military captains. <mask> thought this put a lot of power in the hands of the baronage. He wanted to avoid dependence on the nobility for military recruitment.His private military retinue was larger than that of any English king before him, and he gave them livery badges with his White Hart. He was free to create a courtly atmosphere in which the king was a distant, venerated figure and art and culture were at the center. As part of his programme of asserting his authority, <mask> tried to cultivate the royal image. Unlike any other English king before him, he had himself portrayed in panel paintings of elevated majesty, of which two survive:

This was the time when the English language took shape as a literary language and the court's patronage of literature is important.

While serving the king as a diplomat, customs official, and clerk of The King's Works, the greatest poet of the age, <mask>, also produced some of his best-known work. The Book of the Duchess was written in honor of Gaunt's wife, and was also written in the service of John of Gaunt.

The policy of rapprochement with the English crown did not suit Louis's political ambitions, so he allowed Henry Bolingbroke to leave for England. Bolingbroke landed at Ravenspur in Yorkshire with a small group of followers. Men from all over the country came together to support him. Bolingbroke insisted that his only object was to regain his own patrimony after meeting with Henry Percy, the 1st Earl of Northumberland. He took him at his word and did not try to interfere. Bolingbroke had little resistance as he moved south because the king had taken most of his household knights and nobility with him to Ireland.Edmund, Duke of York, had little choice but to support Bolingbroke. <mask> was delayed in his return from Ireland and did not land in Wales until July. He met with the Earl of Northumberland in Conwy on August 12. <mask> promised to abdicate if his life were spared when he surrendered to Henry Bolingbroke. The indignant king rode all the way behind Henry. He was imprisoned in the Tower of London on 1 September. Henry was determined to take the throne but was faced with a dilemma of presenting a rationale.It was argued that <mask> had rendered himself incapable of being king because of his tyranny. The heir presumptive was Edmund Mortimer, 5th Earl of March, great-grandson of <mask>'s second surviving son, Lionel, Duke of Clarence. Edward's third son, John of Gaunt, was Bolingbroke's father. The problem was solved by emphasizing Henry's

According to the official record, read by the Archbishop of Canterbury during an assembly of lords and commons at Westminster Hall on Tuesday 30 September, <mask> gave up his crown willingly and ratified his deposition citing as a reason his own unworthiness as a monarch. The Traison et Mort Chronicle suggests otherwise. One day before the parliament's session, there was a meeting between <mask> and Henry.The king lost his mind and ordered his own release from the Tower, called his cousin a traitor, demanded to see his wife, and swore revenge, throwing down his bonnet. Thirty-three articles of deposition that were unanimously accepted by lords and commons were read by the Bishop of St Asaph when parliament met to discuss <mask>'s fate. On 1 October 1399, <mask> was deposed. Henry Bolingbroke was crowned king on the feast day of Edward the Confessor. After <mask>'s abdication, Death Henry agreed to let him live. When it was revealed that the earls of Huntingdon, Kent, and Salisbury, and Lord Despenser had been demoted from the ranks they had been given by <mask>, this all changed. The plot highlighted the danger of allowing <mask> to live.He is thought to have died of starvation in captivity in Pontefract Castle on or around 14 February 1400, although there is some question over the date and manner of his death.

Several sources from both sides of the border say the man had a mental illness and was a beggar by the time he died, but he was buried as a king in the Dominican. In 1413, Henry Vin decided to bury his father's body at King's Langley in order to atone for his act of murder and to silence the rumors of <mask>'s survival. The tomb was prepared by <mask>, where Anne's remains were already entombed. Contemporary writers agreed that <mask> was a "most beautiful king", though with a "face which was white, rounded and feminine", implying he lacked manliness.His tomb was opened in 1871 and he was found to be six feet tall. He was well read and had a tendency to stutter when he was agitated. It is assumed that the king had a beard by the time the portrait was taken, since it shows him as younger than he was at the time. He became a strong opponent of the Lollard heresy because of his religious beliefs. He had his coat of arms impaled on the mythical arms of Edward the Confessor around 1395 because he was so devoted to the cult. <mask> was not a warrior king like his grandfather, but he still enjoyed tournaments and hunting.

The idea that <mask> was to blame for the Wars of the Roses came to be challenged in the 20th century. The Wars of the Roses are seen in isolation from the reign of <mask> II. The subject of <mask>'s mental state has been a major issue of historical debate since the first academic historians started treating it in the 19th century.One of the first historians to look at <mask> as a king and as a person was Bishop Stubbs. <mask>'s mind was losing its balance towards the end of his reign, according to Stubbs. Anthony Steel, who wrote a full-scale biography of the king in 1941, concluded that <mask> had a mental illness. This was challenged by V. H. Galbraith, who argued that there was no historical basis for such a diagnosis. Even though there is no basis for assuming the king had a mental illness, he showed clear signs of a narcissistic personality, and towards the end of his reign "<mask>'s grasp on reality was becoming weaker". <mask>'s political agenda and reasons for its failure are one of the primary historiographical questions. The early modern absolute monarchy exemplified by the Tudor dynasty was thought to be contained in his kingship.<mask>'s concept of kingship has been seen by some as not so different from that of his predecessors, and that it was exactly by staying within the framework of traditional monarchy that he was able to achieve as much as he did. His actions were too extreme. <mask>'s popularity with the Commons

Montacute succeeded his uncle as Earl of Salisbury. <mask>'s favourite son, Hugh Despenser the Younger, who was executed for treason in 1326, was given the forfeited earldom of Gloucester. The tradition for earldoms to descend in the male line had become established, but there was no tradition for royal succession in England. The English claim to the French throne was based on the female line over which the war was being fought. The Reign of Richard II, ed., is a reference source.

This allowed Almira, and other women like her, the chance to gain a secondhand college education, engaging in discussions with the boarders and learning subjects which were at that time not taught, or taught only basically, at the female academies. Almira was able to learn higher mathematics in this secondhand fashion. Almira began her teaching career at the age of 16. She continued her education.

When the Troy Seminary added a laboratory for the study of chemistry, Almira worked hard to make sure it was stocked with chemicals so that she and her students could take part in scientific experiments. The quality of scientific education at the Troy Seminary was enriched by the fact that she was able to give lectures on chemistry which were illustrated through experiments. Encouraged by her sister's success and driven by her own financial needs, <mask> began to write such textbooks in the late 1820s. Her first book, Familiar Lectures on Botany, was published in 1829 and sold over 275,000 copies by 1872. It was a priority to invite women from the Troy Seminary to his lectures at the Renessalaer Polytechnic Institute because he believed in women's capacity for higher education.He made an effort to include women in scientific instruction because he believed that men and women should be educated together.

Dr. Cook wasn't able to run the school properly and didn't know how to teach young women. The place of religion in the curriculum was a point of contention between Almira and some of the trustees. The board of trustees wanted to remain secular, while Almira wanted to include religious instruction in the curriculum. This was one of the main reasons for Almira's later departure from the school.

Benchley was able to keep up with his new column because he was able to film the shorts in New York.Before heading back to New York, <mask> had a role in the feature film Dancing Lady, which also featured Joan Crawford, Clark Gable, Fred Astaire, and the Three Stooges.
