  12. James I (1603-25), Mary, Queen of Scots’ son who also ruled as James VI of Scotland. As a result of this union, the term Great Britain starts to be used to describe England.

  13. James, known as the “most learned fool in Christendom”, liked to lecture Parliament at length on the virtues of absolutism.

  14. Remember kids, I may like all that frilly Catholic stuff like bishops & fancy ritual, but technically I’m still a Protestant. Mr. B gets really mad if you say I’m Catholic. By the same token, the Puritans get really mad when I claim to be Protestant. What’s a king to do? I guess I’ll go hunting. James I, shown here in his hunting outfit

  15. “Sure dad steered the ship of state towards the rocks, but we get to wreck it.”--Charles I.1-3 Van Dyck’s triple portrait of Charles I (1625-49). Charles’ absolutist philosophy, insensitivity to public opinion, and indecisiveness created the perfect combination of characteristics needed to get himself overthrown by revolution. It didn’t help that there were three of him.

  16. Van Dyck’s most famous portrait of Charles I (1625-49). Van Dyck was an especially popular portrait artist, largely because, instead of using the usual 6:1 ratio of body to head size, he used a 7:1 ratio. This made his subjects, such as Charles, appear taller and more regal. In reality, Charles was supposedly somewhat short & dumpy.
