Unit 3: The effects of rebellions on government and society
RED - no/little impact
BLUE - impact
Crown servants: who was attacked as “evil councilors” and what happened to them?
Cornish: Bray and Morton - were blamed for the tax - they survived - no impact
Amicable Grant: Wolsey - was blamed for the tax - survived, however his relationship with Henry VIII worsened and
four years later he was removed from office - limited impact
Pilgrimage of Grace:
Cromwell - Henry VIII principal secretary, gained land from the dissolution of the monasteries (so was made
wealthier) - was removed in 1540 but this was due to Henry’s marriage to Anne of Cleaves, not the rebellion
Cranmer - remained the Archbishop
Audley - stayed as Lord Chancellor
Rich - was rewarded
No impact
Western: attacked Somerset for introducing the Edwardian Reformation, the new prayer book - the Western rebellion
played a role in his removal from office as he failed to deal with it and other uprisings during the Year of Commotion
(1549), he was replaced by Northumberland - partial impact
Wyatt: attacked Mary’s advisors and said she needed “better counsel” - no impact, Mary continued to use the same
advisors and the marriage to Philip II went ahead
Northern earls: attacked William Cecil - he remained Elizabeth’s chief advisor after the rebellion so no impact
Essex: attacked Robert Cecil - survived and continued with his powerful position under James I - no impact
CONCLUSION: rebellions had very little to no impact on the crown servants - there was only one that was adversely
affected by the rebels, most actually benefited
Religious developments: what were the rebels complaining about / what did the Tudor government do?
Pilgrimage of Grace: the rebels demanded a reversal of the Henrician Reformation - effect was actually that it
angered Henry VIII (as had been questioned by commoners) to such a degree that he sped up the Reformation and
convinced him that the clergy were untrustworthy: 1537/8 - closed the larger monasteries, 1538 - injunctions that
confirmed the government’s stance on saints and pilgrimages were introduced (e.g: Becket’s shrine in Canterbury
was destroyed). Rebels failed to achieve their goal - no impact - had the opposite effect if anything.
Western: the rebels demanded a reversal of the Edwardian Reformation (a restoration of Latin prayer books and
services). Instead, a more Protestant Bible is released three years later. Rebels failed to achieve their goal - no impact
- had the opposite effect if anything.
Kett’s: the rebels demanded a more extreme reformation. Some impact, a more Protestant Bible is released three
years later.
