Section A

Answer Question 01.




Source A

From a letter to the citizens of York from Richard III, 1483. Richard III was in Lincoln
when he wrote this letter.

Trusty and well beloved,

We greet you well. I write to let you know that the Duke of Buckingham has become a
traitor and turned upon us. This is contrary to the duty of the Duke’s allegiance and
office. The Duke of Buckingham intends the utter destruction of us. That includes you
and all other true and loyal subjects that have taken our part in establishing this reign. 5
With God’s grace we are resolved to resist and subdue Buckingham’s traitorous intent.
We desire and pray that you will send us many men armed and on horseback. Send as
many as you can. Send the men to our town of Leicester. The men must arrive on the
21st of this month without fail. If you will protect our honour, we will see you are paid and
rewarded for your support. This will give further confidence to our trusty supporters. 10

Given under our signet at the city of Lincoln on the 11th day of October.




Source B

From ‘History of King Richard III’ by Thomas More, 1513. More later served on
Henry VIII’s Privy Council and was close to the Tudors.

The occasion whereupon the King and Duke fell out, which led to Buckingham’s
conspiracy, is disputed. After Richard’s coronation they parted, seemingly, great friends.
Yet when the Duke came home, he so easily turned and so highly conspired against the
King, that a man would marvel at this change.

Some say that Buckingham told Richard he required the Duke of Hereford’s lands, of 5
which he pretended himself to be the rightful inheritor. Richard rejected this with spiteful
and threatening words; which wounded Buckingham’s heart with hatred and mistrust.
Consequently, the Duke could never support Richard and feared for his life. Yet many
wise men think this story unlikely. The truth is the Duke was a proud man and could not
bear another’s glory. Some say, that as soon as the crown was set on Richard’s head, 10
Buckingham could not bear it. The cunning Bishop of Ely, who was Buckingham’s
prisoner, took advantage of his captor’s pride. He persuaded Buckingham not only to
release him but also to rebel.
