This study uses the lives of four Tudor officials who were personal servants of the monarch- Sir Thomas Heneage, Sir Anthony Denny, Sir John Gates, and Sir William Herbert- to demonstrate the inertia of personal monarchy in spite of Thomas Cromwell’s reform and reorganization of government. It also investigates the link between a courtier and a councilor, between a king’s or queens’s man and a statesman.
