People seeing Henry V's face hole: I want to put my finger in it. I want to penetrate him. Richard Courtenay seeing Henry V's face hole: I wish to kiss your wound. I would like very much to worship it with my lips and tongue. John Bradmore: Just stop. All of you, stop. this is hardly sanitary. also John Bradmore: now hold still your grace, I've got some probes and a speculum to open the wound up.

#there's a paper/thesis that argues bradmore's tongs were effectively a speculum-like device #look even my bad and bad taste jokes have footnotes!!#text posts #henry v #henry v's face hole #richard courtenay

reenacting henry v’s arrowhead removal after the battle of shrewsbury. graphic but interesting!

#mine own post #resource #henry v #video

I was bored and got reminded of @oldshrewsburyian's post about how ugly the paperback cover of Malcolm Vale's Henry V: The Conscience of a King was and decided to attempt my own take of a rejacket.

I made, at first, three varieties based on the earliest version of The Portrait. I did feel a little bad about #2 being somewhat similar to the cover of Teresa Cole's biography of Henry (in crop, at least) but I also realised Cole's cover is also similar to the cover of Keith Dockray's biography of Henry so I ceased to care. Personally, I'm quite partial to #3 and I think I had something going on here with like the hands of the king or something...

The image on the hardback edition is from a manuscript edition of Henry being presented a book and, iirc, Vale references that image in the text of his book so I then tried to use it and discovered... circles.

Keeping with the circles theme, I turned to two other images of Henry. The first (#6) is the statue of Henry from the York Minster screen and inspired by G. L. Harriss's comments on it as a memorial of him as king. Finally, there's the manuscript of him receiving or giving Hoccleve's The Regiment of Princes, to which I added Henry's signature.

Personally, I think #4 or #5 is the best of the circles. I don't have any suggestions for a better subtitle, though.

#i am willing to capitalise my subtitle too but i was bored and doing aesthetics #needless to say that i am not a professional book cover designer but i still think even the worst of these is better than that paperback #henry v #text posts #my stuff
