1 KS3-HIST-EMO-0013

Henry VIII's first wife had not given him a surviving son, which was a key reason he wanted the marriage ended. Who was she?

Catherine of Aragon

提示She was a Spanish princess who had first been married to Henry's older brother.

为什么Catherine bore several children but only Mary lived. Henry feared a king without a male heir might lead to a return of civil war, and he had fallen for Anne Boleyn.

2 KS3-HIST-EMO-0014

Which Pope refused, in the late 1520s, to annul Henry VIII's marriage?

Clement VII

提示He was under the influence of Catherine's powerful nephew, the Emperor Charles V.

为什么Clement VII was effectively a prisoner of Charles V's army after the sack of Rome in 1527, so he dared not offend Catherine's family.

3 KS3-HIST-EMO-0015

Which Archbishop of Canterbury declared Henry VIII's marriage to Catherine of Aragon invalid in 1533?

Thomas Cranmer

提示He was Henry's choice for archbishop, appointed in 1533.

为什么Cranmer's court ruled the marriage void in May 1533, which let Henry's marriage to Anne Boleyn stand without the Pope's approval.

4 KS3-HIST-EMO-0016

In 1521 the Pope gave Henry VIII a title for writing against Martin Luther's ideas. What was the title?

Defender of the Faith

提示The title praised him for defending the Catholic Church.

为什么Ironically Henry later broke with the same Pope, but English monarchs still use a version of the title today.

5 KS3-HIST-EMO-0017

After the break with Rome, did Henry VIII make English religion Protestant in its beliefs and services?

No, he kept most traditional Catholic beliefs and services

提示Think about what actually changed: the person at the top, not the Mass.

为什么Henry replaced the Pope with himself as head, but the 1539 Act of Six Articles confirmed many Catholic beliefs. Real Protestant change came under his son Edward VI.

6 KS3-HIST-EMO-0018

Which royal minister organised the 1535 survey of church wealth that came before the monasteries were closed?

Thomas Cromwell

提示He was Henry's chief minister, a lawyer who drove the Dissolution.

为什么The survey, the Valor Ecclesiasticus, showed how rich the Church was. Cromwell then sent commissioners to inspect the monasteries.

7 KS3-HIST-EMO-0019

In 1536 Henry began closing monasteries, starting with the ____ ones; the rest followed by 1540.

smaller

提示Think about which would be easiest to close without a big fight.

为什么The first Act covered houses with a small income; the larger ones followed, and by 1540 all had been closed, surrendered or taken over by the Crown.

8 KS3-HIST-EMO-0020

Which northern rising of 1536, partly against the closing of monasteries, was crushed by Henry VIII?

The Pilgrimage of Grace

提示Its marchers called themselves pilgrims.

为什么Tens of thousands marched in Yorkshire and the north. Henry promised talks, then executed the leaders, including Robert Aske, in 1537.

9 KS3-HIST-EMO-0021

What reason did Cromwell's commissioners give in public for closing the monasteries?

That monks and nuns were corrupt and had broken their vows

提示The public reason was about behaviour, not about money.

为什么Their reports claimed idleness and immorality. Historians note the commissioners were gathering evidence for the king, so the reports may be biased; the Crown also wanted the wealth.

10 KS3-HIST-EMO-0022

Many monasteries cared for the sick. What name is given to the building or room where the monks looked after them?

An infirmary

提示It comes from a word meaning weak or ill.

为什么Monastic infirmaries gave rest and care to the sick, the old and travellers. After 1540 this help had to be replaced by parishes and later the Poor Laws.
