This, part 2, focuses on defining the 'Renaissance', a 'Renaissance prince' and discussing whether Henry VII fits that mould . (This guide could also be used as background for Unit 2B.) This is a required task in module 1 of this course. Part 1 of this study is also available on here- an overview comparing the monarchial system Henry VII ‘inherited’ with the one he wished to create.

At A/S and A level you need to link events and policies if you want an A grade. Made for the AQA exam board but suitable for all exam boards that do this topic, it is useful for teachers, tutors, parents and pupils for a frame of reference for a topic that used to be seen by traditional historians as an 'easy', black and white period of history- how we know it was no such thing.
