520    Henry VIII, who ruled England for almost four decades, 
       provokes questions. What is greatness? How should we judge
       character? Who or what can be said to "make" or cause 
       history? England's most famous king ruled an island only 
       about the size of Pennsylvania, inhabited by fewer than 
       three million people nearly 500 years ago - yet he remains
       instantly recognizable to this day, his barrel-chested and
       bejeweled figure immortalized by the brush of Hans Holbein
       the Younger. In this series of 24 revealing lectures, an 
       honored teacher offers an intimate portrait of the monarch
       who, in a recent biographer's words, "changed the heart, 
       mind, and face of Britain more than anything between the 
       coming of the Normans and the coming of the factory" - a 
       despot who became an accidental great-grandfather of 
       English-speaking democracy. You'll learn how Henry gave 
       Protestantism its powerful purchase in the English-
       speaking world and how, given Britain's later significance
       in world history - made possible in part by Henry himself 
       - he must be accounted a towering figure of history. The 
       Henry VIII who emerges from these lectures is a man of 
       both great charm and terrifying, self-pitying ferocity. He
       harbored ruthless ambitions and spun grand schemes, yet in
       the end was shadowed by the historical irony of 
       expectations gone awry. At the same time, you'll grasp how
       his reign contributed an important legacy to British 
       history and the modern world. The revolutionary effect of 
       the Act of Appeals was to make law itself, or the king-in-
       Parliament, the supreme authority. Parliamentary law 
       became the basis of the new constitutional monarchy, and 
       Henry's navy was the first standing military force in his 
       day.
