This study revaluates our understanding of Renaissance chronicle history and the impact of Holinshed on Tudor, Jacobean, and Caroline political discourse; the Chronicles emerge not as a series of rambling, digressive episodes characteristic to a dying medieval genre, but as the preserver of national memory, the teacher of prudent policy, and a builder of the commonwealth ideal.HistoriographyGreat BritainHistory16th centuryGreat BritainHistoryTo 1485HistoriographyGreat BritainHistoryTudors, 1485-1603HistoriographyElectronic books.HistoriographyHistory941.0072Djordjevic Igor887266MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459624003321Holinshed's nation1982101UNINA
