Very interesting as always! I am reminded how affected we are by those things we experience as youngsters. I remember Basil Dignam clearly as Gardiner in the 1971 Elizabeth R series when I watched it as a boy, and later rewatched several times as an adult. The way his character was written and performed, he seemed to have regretted his previous actions in Henry's great matter and in Mary's reign was intent on righting his wrongs. But as you present, he was a bit more "opportunistic" (if that's the correct word) in real life. As an FYI, looking up Dignam's name, I fell down a Vivien Pickles rabbit hole lol!! And God bless, she's still with us!!!

What a great video!!! Thanks to you and all your viewers who suggested this subject. I wonder if Gardiner had a change of heart while pursuing Henry's great matter. He may have viewed the will of God and the will of God's anointed King (i.e. Royal Supremacy) as synonymous, but worried about the direction of the reform. His seeming sympathy for the Pilgrimage of Grace, his reluctance to pursue Pole, his work on the Six Articles, and his persistence even after the threat of arrest for treason all seem to point toward this. Again, awesome video!!!🏵🏵🏵

@cakt1991
@cakt1991 4 ай бұрын
Would the coup have happened at all if she were still alive? I think Catherine’s death was at least partially responsible for setting the chessboard for what happened in 1553.,If Catherine hadn’t died, she might still be married to Thomas Seymour, who wouldn’t have been executed for attempting marry Elizabeth and abduct Edward VI. Would Edward Seymour have fallen from power and been supplanted by John Dudley? Dudley taking power was what led to the Jane Grey coup. Thomas Seymour was at one point Lady Jane Grey’s guardian, but there’s no indicator he wanted the throne for her…he wanted to marry her to Edward at one point, however, in contrast to the more formal plans for betrothal with foreign royals, like Mary, Queen of Scots and Elisabeth of Valois. Also, I don’t think there’s an indicator that Catherine would be more sympathetic toward Jane’s cause even if the situation did happen…the only concrete indicator of their relationship is that Jane was chief mourner at her funeral. But regardless of any domestic dramas or religious differences, I feel like she would hope she would be sympathetic to her stepdaughters as legitimate claimants, and just as she did in 1546, I would hope she would be able to read the room and understand when to push for religious reform and when to step back.

Thank you so much for this video. The only reference I have to Gardner is from “A Man for All Seasons”. He come off rather oily and self serving. But the maybe he was. His convictions held until something better came along. That did insure survival but lacks self convection. But then again, what would I do in a structure where all things good flow from the monarch and I wanted to live and live well 🤷🏽‍♀️ At least he meet his end in his bed.

Gardiner was such an interesting and compelling, if not at all likable, character in the wonderful Wolfhall trilogy by the brilliant, late and much missed, Hilary Mantel, and beautifully acted in the series adaptation. I thought the actor who played Norfolk was amazing, too, perhaps the very best of all. Gardiner and Norfolk stood out as two of the finest performances in the series, in my opinion, in addition to Claire Foy’s. These actors all fully inhabit and “become” their characters, an achievement that our American actors rarely seem to attain. A rare exception was the American actor who played Francis Poldark so beautifully in the (more recent) Poldark series. If I want the best acting, I watch your British actors snd productions, who are almost alone in the world’s top tier. Perhaps it’s the daily Shakespeare! I’m a loyal American, but don’t always think we’re the best at everything, because we’re just not❤

Surviving under Henry VIII was quite the dance! 💃 princesses Mary and Elizabeth, Anne of Cleve’s , and Queen Katherine Parr are join by Stephen Gardiner in managing the correct steps to survive the daily dance of freedom and life vs imprisonment and death by execution. During their lifetimes both Mary and Elizabeth had to illnesses likely connected to the stress of survival PTSD. Gardiner seemed able to play both sides, getting rid of the right heretic at the right moment.🎯 More intriguing to me is the ‘love’ ❤, use the cautiously, Henry had for Cranmer.

Thanks for the video on this interesting person. Gardiner was an academic, and like many, had strong opinions. I wonder if his fervor in routing out reformers was him trying to prove his point to the monarch and persuade them. Gardiner certainly had a talent for staying alive, which I think was a matter of luck (Edward's reign) and perhaps his personality (Henry was lenient with him, where he was not with others). I'm not surprised that for the most part he got along well with Mary, and that his eventual capitulation over Philip happened. Maybe his age left less of a fight in him. I don't think that Gardiner's death saved Elizabeth. Mary was hesitant to execute political rivals, especially family.

Great work Dr. Kat. I do think Gardiner was focused on religion, and this weirdly... weirdly... 😆remined me of this person I met at our church who was so zealously faithful that he seemed to have a hard time trusting the leadership of 'his' faith to others. Perhaps Gardiner's faith was also the motivation behind his career-climbing interests? Hey side question(s), unrelated here: When in your opinion (whether successful or not) was the last usurper who made a real run at the throne? At what point did the business of 'usurping to the throne' seem to become a thing of the past?

Thank you, great question! My initial answer is going to be the Jacobites, but as their claim was disrupted by the “Glorious Revolution”, one might argue that they weren’t attempted usurpers but rather rightful claimants denied. The Jacobites were kept at bay through the Georgian period and as our current monarch has a very direct line of descent from the Hanoverians that may explain the lack of attempted usurpations more recently. Additionally, as the monarchy has become more rigidly constitutional, I wonder if the usurpation cake simply isn’t worth the baking anymore 🤷🏻‍♀️

I suspect that, like many other men of faith during the Tudor era, that there was no dividing line between his faith and his desire for power.

For me, Gardiner's true motivations are a mystery. For a pure opportunist, he seems far too willing to risk his head by defying his monarch. But his convictions do seem to vary over time - perhaps as a natural response to events, in a time of great division and confusion.

@octavianpopescu4776
@octavianpopescu4776 4 ай бұрын
They lived on after her death in 1568... As far as I know, Edward Seymour continued to try to prove his marriage to Katherine was legitimate, for decades. By the time she was nearing her death, Elizabeth was asked... again... for the nth time... about the succession, whether Edward (Katherine's son) should succeed her, as would have been the law according to Henry VIII's will. She started railing against Katherine and her children, because Elizabeth never got over it, so that was no. Not sure what happened to Thomas, but Edward eventually died before his father. Edward Seymour (Katherine's husband) managed to finally get his marriage recognized during the early reign of James I (I think he finally found the priest who had married them, after 40 years) and he finally died in 1621. Now, Edward (Katherine's son) had a son, William who was involved in another "secret marriage" scandal with Arbella Stuart... it was a family tradition at that point. I think William was the one who removed Katherine's remains and moved them next to her husband's at Salisbury Cathedral in 1640, where they are to this day. And their kids kept having kids... in fact to this day, there are direct descendents of Katherine Grey and Edward Seymour... I think, I'm not sure, but I think it's possible that King Charles III is one (via his grandmother, Elizabeth the Queen Mother), but I'm not sure. I saw it somewhere, but I don't vouch for the accuracy. But there is a guy, John Seymour, 19th Duke of Somerset, born in 1952... he's still alive and kicking, who's a direct descendent of Katherine Grey. So the bloodline is still going. By the way: a funny detail regading Katherine and Edward's burial spot. So, in the exact same place, Salisbury Cathedral, was buried in the early 1600s Henry Herbert (Katherine's 1st husband) and the guy who at one point sent Katherine a... strongly worded letter... I mean we're used to them using polite flowery language, his letter to her is extra-rude even by today's standards. It's his reaction to finding out Katherine was pregnant. I like to think of Katherine's and Edward's grand tomb close to Herbert's as a sort of giant middle finger to him for all eternity. 😀
