The son and heir to the king of England Henry VII, the second English monarch from the Tudor dynasty Henry VIII belongs to the number of rulers, the opinions of which both during their lifetime and in the next centuries diverged radically. Then he is portrayed by the king-juer, who did not engage in state affairs and constantly in the whirlwind of court entertainment, and special attention is concentrated on his scandalous personal life, then extremely prudent sober politician, indifferent to women and arranged marriages exclusively for political reasons, then cruel and treacherous Tiran, and Charles Dickens completely called the king "the most unbearable bastard, shame for human nature, a bloody and satisfactory spot in the history of England."
German writer Louise Mulbach in the novel "Heinrich of the eighth and his yard" offers his view of this contradictory personality. Henry VIII went from a charming and charismatic prince to a cruel king, equally cursed and praised. He gave great hopes when he entered the throne: with an excellent education, he was tactful and smart, spoke freely in three foreign languages, was an excellent rider and tireless hunter, with fervor made speeches in parliament and always worked with him in a tight coupling, possessed An excellent political instinct was a good diplomat.
The less attractive features of Henry - the habit of falling into unbridled rage, unprincipled, tendency and egocentrism, megalomania and cruelty - became obvious much later
