The Sicilian coinage of Henry VI - mint attributions reconsidered

The Sicilian Coinage of the Hohenstaufen has been studied since the 17th century. Today, with the splendid Medieval European Coinage 14 at our hands, scholars are still struggling when it comes to mint attributions for Henry’s Sicilian denari and taris: Palermo or Messina? Palermo and Messina? The coin finds from Monte Iato (PA) may shed light on this old problem: by starting from one coin type alone and examining the different subtypes and variants, we can catch a glimpse of the way coinage was organised in Sicily at the end of the 12th century.

Shakespeare's Richard II and Henry V and Political Rebellions in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth I

The purpose of this thesis will be to examine how two acts of rebellion against Queen Elizabeth I influenced Shakespeare's writing of Richard II and Henry V, as well as the performance and publication of these plays. The treasonous plots and execution of Mary, Queen of Scots in the 1580s, as well as the failed Essex Rebellion of 1601, resulted in a sensitivity towards any writings that seemed to support a coup d'état. Shakespeare, being a well-informed and fairly well-connected playwright, wrote passages in the afore mentioned plays that clearly reflect the political turmoil of the times. Thus, his plays were censored both on stage and in print until after the death of Elizabeth in 1603.
