Description
An examination of the political imagery of a Renaissance dynasty. Tudor dynastic images were extremely simple, but their simplicity is not self-evident - a paradox which provides the theme and structure of this book. There have been many books on Tudor imagery but most assume what they should be proving - that is that there was a systematic use of learned symbolism for propaganda purposes. This book makes no such assumption and arrives, after an examination of the evidence, at the conclusion that the systematic propaganda machine did not exist.
