----------
这本书是描述亨利三世统治下开创性历史的两卷本中一本。
"卡彭特教授是英国重要的中世纪学者之一......没有人比他更了解亨利，他一生的学术研究在这里得到了倾囊相授，优雅而又不乏幽默感。这是一部优秀的、明智的、富有启发性的作品，应该成为未来几代人研究该统治的标准。”—Dan Jones, The Sunday Times
亨利三世在1216年登基时只有9岁，他必须在《大宪章》的制定和议会的出现所规定的范围内进行统治。亨利平易近人，善于调和，并具有深厚的信仰，他为英格兰带来了多年的和平，并重建了威斯敏斯特教堂，以纪念他的守护神爱德华忏悔者。他把钱都花在了美化他的宫殿和创建一个宏伟的宫廷上。然而，这种对 "软实力 "的投资并没有阻止1258年由西蒙·蒙特福特领导的一场大革命，结束了亨利的个人统治。
知名历史学家大卫·卡彭特（David Carpenter）以精彩的方式将亨利的性格和统治带入生活。卡彭特利用无比丰富的原始资料使我们有可能比其他任何中世纪君主更接近英格兰历史上无名的国王之一亨利，他强调了国王的成就和失败，同时为中世纪政治和信仰之间的密切联系提供了一个全新的视角。
The first in a ground-breaking two-volume history of Henry III’s rule
“Professor Carpenter is one of Britain’s foremost medievalists…No one knows more about Henry, and a lifetime of scholarship is here poured out, elegantly and often humorously. This is a fine, judicious, illuminating work that should be the standard study of the reign for generations to come.”—Dan Jones, The Sunday Times
Nine years of age when he came to the throne in 1216, Henry III had to rule within the limits set by the establishment of Magna Carta and the emergence of parliament. Pacific, conciliatory, and deeply religious, Henry brought many years of peace to England and rebuilt Westminster Abbey in honor of his patron saint, Edward the Confessor. He poured money into embellishing his palaces and creating a magnificent court. Yet this investment in "soft power" did not prevent a great revolution in 1258, led by Simon de Montfort, ending Henry's personal rule.
Eminent historian David Carpenter brings to life Henry's character and reign as never before. Using source material of unparalleled richness—material that makes it possible to get closer to Henry than any other medieval monarch—Carpenter stresses the king’s achievements as well as his failures while offering an entirely new perspective on the intimate connections between medieval politics and religion.
