This is the third volume in a seven-volume collection - published
in nine parts between 1864 and 1890 - comprising Venetian and other
northern Italian state papers relating to England. Translator and
editor Rawdon Lubbock Brown (1806-83) lived for many years in
Venice, had unrivalled access to the Venetian archives and
travelled widely to find documents in other Italian libraries and
archives. He had previously published two volumes of Sebastian
Giustinian's dispatches to Venice from Henry VIII's court (also
reissued in this series). This third volume contains documents from
the years 1520-26, a time when Henry VIII was a powerful figure in
European politics: his meeting with the king of France at the Field
of the Cloth of Gold is recounted here. The editor's preface puts
the various documents into historical context, and there is also an
appendix of miscellaneous items, including papal letters.
