Sire Thomas More was an intellectual and humanist during Henry VIII's reign. Thomas More was a member of the King's Council as well as Speaker of the House in Parliament. Thomas More acted as Henry VIII's close adviser and confident. After the dismissal of Cardinal Wolsey, Thomas More was also appointed as the Chancellor to King Henry VIII.
The Roman Catholic Church probably caused it through its opposition to Henry's wishes, and the monasteries suffered from it.
Because he wanted the money because he had fought many expensive wars and didn't have very much money left 1.Religion- when Henry was a catholic, the pope didn't believe in divorce, and of course this was a problem for Henry, so he made the church of England. He might of not liked the monks (as they were catholic) so he shut them down. 2.Economics- as Henry fought many expensive wars, he had no money left, so by shutting down the monastries, he gained lots of land and property which resulted in lots of money. 3.The monks- the monks weren't being true to their religion, they are supposed to live a solitary life on their own. However they were caught sleeping with women wearing no clothes, others had wives and children and others were even theives! So Henry had even more reason to shut them down.
The Church of England did not exist during the Middle Ages. It was formed after the Dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII at the beginning of the modern era.
i dont know ask someone else
to be able to take money from the church, Henry had to close the catholic church and monasteries to take away their money. To be able to close the monasteries Henry needed a reason, so, he bad mouthed the catholics by saying that they believed in the wrong things and that they were greedy. By saying that, he then had the power (as king) to close, burn and take all the money from the churches and monasteries. written by lucian thomas :-p
Henry VIII really closed up the monasteries because they were both rich and powerful institutions that were very loyal to the Popes. The Pope was seen as an opponent to Henry and by closing the monasteries, Henry was then viewed as the Head of the Church.
In what year did Henry VIII closed the monasteries?
all monasteries in Britian.
he got it from the monasteries
he wanted to get lots of money by owning the land and also gaining power
The dissolution of the monasteries was nothing to do with supressing Protestants (Monasteries were Catholic) and it was Henry VIII not Henry VII.
