Charles V’s visit to England in 1522

Charles V

In today's Claire Chat's video I talk about the visit Charles V made to England in 1522, to make an alliance with Henry VIII against France, and all the pageantry and entertainment that he enjoyed.

You can read Edward Hall's full account of Charles's visit at http://www.archive.org/stream/hallschronicleco00halluoft#page/634/mode/2up, p. 634-642. You can also read about the visit in the Rutland Papers at https://books.google.es/books?id=GFpAAQAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false, p.59 onwards.
