Product description

May, 1536. Anne Boleyn is dead. As the axe drops, Thomas Cromwell (Academy Award® winner Mark Rylance, Bridge of Spies) emerges from the bloodbath to continue his climb to power and wealth, while his formidable master Henry VIII (Emmy Award® winner Damian Lewis, Homeland) settles to short-lived happiness with his third queen, Jane Seymour (Kate Phillips, Miss Scarlet). Now, with no great family to back him, no private army, and only his wits to rely on, Cromwell must navigate the dangerous court of a most unpredictable king.

    Reviewed in Canada on May 3, 2025
    It goes without saying that this is a story that carries great historical significance. However I am writing about the actors and the acting. In my opinion it is the best television since I Claudius and Rome. The acting is mesmerizing. Both actors Mark and Damian give incredible portrayals of Henry V111 and Thomas Cromwell...that changed history and the world forever. I have pre-ordered the second season and own season 1 also own I Claudius and Rome....I watch all of them at least twice a year. These shows reflect televison at its ver best.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Renaissance Deferred.
    Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2025
    Verified Purchase
    "Renaissance Arrives" would be an apt title for the 1st season of "Wolf Hall." Someone returns to England, transformed into a Renaissance Man after long sojourns in Florence, arguably the leading center of the Italian Renaissance of the 15th to early 16th centuries, and in Antwerp, arguably the leading center of the North European Renaissance. He gains political prominence, influence, and starts changes which have the potential to dramatically help alter the society, culture, civilization within which he achieves a very remarkable life.

    What is Renaissance? It’s been convincingly argued that the Carolingian era of the 8th century was a Renaissance of sorts for much of western Europe, including attempts at a rationalized legal system, and fostering of literacy.

    But backsliding always seems to happen in history. More barbarian invasions, unfettered whims of strongmen, etc. Fortunately, bearers of light also happen. Pope Sylvester II, for example, who had lived long enough in Spain to gather and bring some fruits of the Islamic civilization there to the benighted lands of western Christendom — such as the Hindu-Arabic number system, possibly double-entry bookkeeping and rudimentary algebra, some mathematical and scientific instruments, and some awareness of ancient Greek and Latin philosophy, science, earning him the nickname "The Scientific Pope." And he seems to have been free enough of irrational fears and superstitions to guide his flock through the trauma of the year 1000, when many were sure the world would end.

    Then the great abbots of Cluny, especially Hugo the Great and Peter the Venerable, and teachers such as Peter Abelard, endeavored to bring ideas, methods, organized advancements, arts, which were both new and old, into more public awareness and practice in realms still deemed backward, crude by other civilizations. Abbot Peter brought many translations of ancient texts into Latin from Toledo to Francia. While the troubadour movement, also borrowing from Islamic Spain, and ancient Rome, endeavored to raise sensibilities to more genteel, nobler, more refined heights. For example, that love of women can be more than than forced compliance for sex, or rape. That there was a 12th Century Renaissance has been convincingly argued. "The Great Thaw" Kenneth Clark called it. Thaw from a cultural deep freeze.

    But setbacks always seem to be waiting just around the corner, generously provided by promoters of dogmatic fanaticism, or simply by career-climbing opportunists, or those dominated by crude reactionary emotions such as resentment, envy, spite.

    Bernard of Clairvaux and others vociferously denounced and campaigned against dangerous new ideas and practices — to bring imprisonment, torture, hanging, burning to those committing treason against God Himself. Justified because surely the wrath of God shall descend on those lands which permit the reading and spread of UnChristian texts such as those by Aristotle and other "pagan" authors.

    Fast forward to the 16th century. What did Thomas Cromwell help bring to more prominence in England? Some unshackled, enhanced individualism certainly. Accompanied by analytic, pragmatic skepticism of received ideas and whims of privilege. Instead nurturing worldly rationality, and tolerant awareness of a diversity of cultures. And unshackled curiosity about the world, with imagination less constrained. Call it cosmopolitanism and liberal humanism.

    Which were hallmarks, leading features of the Italian Renaissance, as Jacob Burckhardt argues in his seminal “The Civilization of the Renaissance in Italy.” Hilary Mantel likely was much influenced by this work — as well as by “Worldly Goods,” another fine work on this era, by Lisa Jardine, which states “The Renaissance was a time of creative energy, enthusiasm, expanding horizons . . . the seeds of our own exuberant multiculturalism and bravura consumerism were planted . . .” And (on p.267), about England: "The curriculum reforms of the Universities under the direction of Thomas Cromwell replaced the entire study of Church law with a liberal, humanistic progamme of study . . . "

    So nurturing a cultural, conceptual condition, climate which will eventually bring the Elizabethan bloom time — Shakespeare, the dazzling poetic flights of mind, the new science of Francis Bacon, etc.

    “Cromwell, why are you such a person?” snaps Norfolk, early on. With a snide emphasis on “person.”

    Salman Rushdie in his fine “The Empress of Florence” compares life in northern India under Mughal rule, and also somewhat Ottoman rule over the Turkish empire, to Florence of about the same era. In the former two, one individual with absolute power may endeavor to hog as much as possible all rights to being a free person, to being The Person on whom all attention should be lavished, with the strongman power to make his whims the law. In Florence by contrast many diverse individuals compete for social, cultural prominence, influence, with no one mastering over all. Except sometimes beauty itself, available for bedazzling enchantment setting imaginations aflame.

    In the England of Henry VIII, we see these two ways come into contact, overlap, rough intermingling, dissension, conflict. Whose ways should be the most prominent? The autocratic dominance of aristocratic privilege and whim, with the assumed superiority of inherited titles and family lineage? Or the merit of worldly talent and reasoned discourse, artful imagination, etc.?

    In the 2nd season of "Wolf Hall," we see a setback of Renaissance ways, effective for some while. A setback due largely it seems to what are still conventionally-considered low emotions of petty resentment, envy, spite. And narrow-mindedness, banality of thought and imagination. A defeat nonetheless leaving a legacy which may yet endure. In hindsight, we know it did, eventually. Which is not always the case.

    Of course, there is much more to be said and thought. But I hope to have been of some assistance.

    This is not a "happily ever after" story. It's more like a cautionary tale. When you swim with sharks, you're going to get attacked.

    The writing is sharp. Other than the strange casting choices for background players, the main characters were spot on. The sets and small details like costuming and props pulled the whole era together.

    You would think after killing Woolsey and More, Henry would have learned from his mistakes, but some people never do. I have never seen Henry played as a buffoon before, but now I can see why they made that choice.

    Stellar performances, and it wrapped up Thomas Cromwell's life in such a wonderful way, showing what he was going through in trying to please a very cranky monarch! I loved the books and these BBC episodes absolutely did justice to Hillary Mantel's written works. I only wished this second series had been longer. They hit the high points, certainly. But it could have gone into more details. All in all, though, I am very pleased.
