8. Henry VIII & Catherine • 1509: Henry VIII becomes king (18) • Athletic & handsome in his youth – remembered as a fat, balding, unhealthy man. • Catherine had a son – Henry – died 2 months later • Mary, the only surviving child of Catherine, born 1516 • Henry becomes impatient for a male heir – didn’t think a woman could run a country.

9. Divorce • Henry wanted Pope Clemente VII to annul the marriage • Said he never should have married her – bad luck to marry dead brother’s widow • Catherine refused – didn’t want Mary to lose right to the throne • HRE, Charles V, was Catherine’s nephew. • The Pope didn’t want to upset him – did not grant annulment or divorce

Result • 1533  Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Cranmer, granted divorce • Henry married Anne Boleyn • Declared the King the Head of the English Church • Remained “Catholic” fundamentally • Henry never wanted to be non-Catholic, he just wanted a divorce • Anglican Church was created  Anglicanism
