Sir John Gage, Tudor courtier and soldier (1479-1556), by David Potter, published November 2002 in The English Historical Review (vol. xvii, no. 474, article, pp.1109-1146, ISSN: 0013-8266) View Online
Abstract:Sir John Gage's political career lasted over fifty years and experienced many of the ups and downs of politics under Henry VIII, Edward VI and Mary I providing a case study of the crucial politically active county gentry upon whom the Tudor state relied. Gage has generally been neglected as a political figure even though he held some of the most important court offices and, as military technocrat, was responsible for the supply of the armies of the 1540s. Insofar as he has any reputation, it is as the staunch conservative and rather sinister figure in Protestant historiography and perhaps as a timeserver. In fact, his religious allegiance was much more fluid and his role in the factional battles of court life at once more complex and more interesting than might at first appear. This study also brings out the purely private dimension and economic activity of a courtier who inherited only a modest landed estate but was able to trade on his influence at court in order to build up a local power-base that established his family in the long term among the leading gentry (and late peerage) of Sussex.

Religion and the Politic Counsellor: Thomas Sackville, 1536-1608, by Rivkah Zim, published September 2007 in The English Historical Review (vol. cxxii, issue 498, article, pp.892-917, ISSN: 0013-8266) View Online
Abstract:There have been few attempts at new interpretations of religious and political identities among the political elite of Elizabethan England. This article investigates the actions and background of Thomas Sackville, lord Buckhurst, whose politic pragmatism and reticence in commenting personally on religion, in writing, have contributed to conflicting views on his position. It demonstrates that while Sackville upheld and promoted the religion of the established church, he nevertheless repeatedly differentiated between the political needs of the state for conformity, and the personal needs of individuals for freedom of conscience where there was not otherwise a threat to social order. It argues that Sackville's stance is significant because he had opportunities to engage in a wide variety of political spheres at the highest levels and often with scope to use his own judgment in determining when and how to intervene. Reference is made to his family background; activities in Sussex, including ecclesiastical patronage; disagreement with the earl of Leicester over English policy in the Netherlands (1587); his work as a privy councillor and high commissioner from 1586; and as chancellor of Oxford University from 1592. Reasons for his mentality are examined in assessing his generation's humanist ethical values, transmitted in English poetry as well as the premises of a classical education. It concludes that Sackville's construction of his religious identity as a moderate, in the preamble to his will, should not be construed as a lack of idealism in a man of his generation and experience
