The Life and Martyrdom of Saint Thomas Becket

The 12th century was dominated by religion; the position of Archbishop of Canterbury was a high point for anyone in the middle ages. Although the king, Henry II, had little time for this. He would miss church services, and if he ever went, he'd spend most of it chatting with his courtiers or sketching. Henry appeared to be above all, including god. He was stubborn with a terrifying personality, some say in many ways similar to his mother. Henry could only be described as over the top. And anyone who crossed him took a considerable risk. One man did and would become a martyr in medieval England. His shrine is now at Canterbury cathedral, yet this was the scene in one of the most tragic endings in history. We now look at the sacred life and death of Thomas Becket. 🔴 Subscribe for more great History videos: https://bit.ly/3aOAre2 🔴 Share this video with a friend:    • The Life and Martyrdom of Saint Thomas Becket   🔴 Watch next – Charlotte Corday:    • The Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat by Ch...   ✅ For business inquiries, contact me at [email protected] ✅ Let's connect: Instagram:   / historyroadshow   Facebook –   / historyroadshow   Thank you for watching; stay tuned for more great videos!
