Description

Explore the complex history of the 1450 Jack Cade Rebellion through this scholarly analysis from Routledge. This work examines the massive uprising of approximately 30,000 middle-class citizens who rose up to protest the policies of Henry VI. The rebellion resulted in significant loss of life and the eventual execution of its leaders, leaving a lasting mark on English history. Alexander L. Kaufman provides the first study of the primary documents related to this event. By analyzing the London chronicles of the Fifteenth Century, this book reveals how different chroniclers produced multiple, unique representations of the rebellion rather than one single account. Because each chronicle is inherently different and highly subjective, this study helps readers understand the varied perspectives found within these quasi-historical documents. This is an essential resource for those studying the Plantagenets, medieval England, and the social unrest of the fifteenth century.
