According to the author himself - the famous English historian Lewis Francis Saltzman - Tudor England represents the transition period from the Middle Ages to the New Age. This movement from feudal monarchy to absolutist monarchy is presented in vivid and evocative sketches. The ecclesiastical Reformation and the establishment of an independent Anglican Church; the extension of English rule to Wales and Ireland; the flowering of Renaissance culture and art, separated from religion; commercial and colonial expansion, and the development of shipbuilding and seafaring successes that preceded them, the development of industry; the establishment of a national theater; the development of printing; masterpieces of painting and literature - all of this is presented through the prism of the social and the everyday. These historical changes are reflected in food, clothing, life, housing, everyday behavior, habits and manners of representatives of the entire social ladder: from monarchs and their courtiers - titled nobility, to destitute beggars, not missing the bulk of the population - the numerous middle class, which included rich merchants, and dishonest nobles, and respectable craftsmen, and hard-working farmers. We see England's journey from a "nation of traveling knights" to a "nation of shopkeepers".
