The Life of Cardinal Wolsey is a biography written by George Cavendish about the life and career of Thomas Wolsey, a prominent English cardinal and statesman during the reign of King Henry VIII. The book explores Wolsey's rise to power, his political and religious influence, and his eventual downfall due to his failure to secure a divorce for King Henry VIII. In addition to Cavendish's biography, the book also includes Thomas Churchyard's Tragedy of Wolsey, a play that dramatizes the cardinal's downfall. Churchyard's play is a fictional account of Wolsey's last days, and it explores themes of power, pride, and the consequences of ambition. Overall, The Life of Cardinal Wolsey provides a comprehensive look at one of the most influential figures in Tudor England, and it offers a glimpse into the political and religious landscape of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
