1. Crowson argues that Wolsey achieved humanistic peace with the Treaty of London. Itenabled him to shift the emphasis from a European Truce for a crusade against the
Ottomans but a self-sustaining truce for its own sake. It contained serious intent to ensure
European peace.
2. Source 11.3 suggests that the greatest limitations with the Treaty were that it did not last
and was often dismissed as an exercise for self-promotion on his behalf. Morris also states
that the Treaty was subject to the shift in great power politics to which England exercised no
control in. Furthermore, the greatest shift was the victory of Charles V in the imperial
election in June 1519.
3. Whether it kept the peace
4. I think the Treaty of London had good intentions in trying to achieve peace within Europe as
Crowson suggested. It had the intent to ‘organise European nations into a self-sustaining
truce’ however as Morris points out it was ‘at the mercy of shifts in great politics which
England exercised no control’. So overall, I believe the Treaty had good intentions but failed
to perform what it set out to do.
