With his tumultuous love life, relentless pursuit of a male heir, and drastic religious transformation, England’s King Henry VIII’s life sounds more like reality television than history. He was a man of fascinating contradictions - he pursued a woman he loved for almost a decade only to behead her less than four years after their marriage. He defended Catholicism so vigorously that he was honored as defender of the faith, but he went on to break with Rome and have himself declared supreme head of the Church of England. Worst of all, the king who began his reign praised as “hero” and “lover of justice and goodness” ended it having metamorphosed into such a monster that he was called the “English Nero”.
What could have caused these incredible paradoxes? Could there be a simple medical explanation for the king’s descent into tyranny? Where do the answers lie? Blood will tell.
A fascinating book, even for non-science and medicine people like me. One of the first things the author says is Henry VIII did not have syphilis.

Thanks jo! We rush to medicalise almost every character trait and difference these days. What happened to someone just being a total asshole?

Syphilitic asshole, please! Infertility, cognitive impairments, lymphatics obesity. Murdered the mother of his inter sexed “daughter” as witch. Could DNA of skeleton resolve these question? Yes, but Sax-Coburg-Gotha’s won’t allow it.

It’s Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. I know a well-educated, English woman in her 40’s, who had no idea what that meant. The UK is screwed, the US to follow 20 or so years later.
I agree with the rest of the comment.

Anne Boleyn was executed for treason, not for being a witch. It wasn’t a crime in Tudor England to be a witch, only to harm someone using witchcraft.
and I don’t know that we can assume that Elizabeth I was “inter sexed”. Just because a woman chooses not to marry doesn’t automatically mean she’s some kind of a freak. I think Elizabeth equated marriage with death. her mother was executed, Katherine Howard’s execution was said to hit her hard, and when Katherine Parr died in childbirth after her marriage to Tom Seymour (not gonna go into the attempted molestation that went on), that just drove the point home. After that, seeing the crisis Mary put the country into having married Phillip… I think it was a wise decision for her not to marry. She did pretty well on her own.

Quaternion - I would have totally disagreed with you about the UK being screwed, but now, not so much. The Yanks now own us, and they didn’t wait long to take their “Dues”. 4 billion pounds of Defence industry sold off to them in the first week.
