- A podcast documentary describing the magnificent life of Richard Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick (1382-1439), written and produced by Adam Busiakiewicz & Aaron Manning.
Friend to Henry V, tutor to Henry VI, Richard Beauchamp can be considered to have been one of the greatest knights of Medieval England. A hero of Henry's campaigns in France, his extraordinary life is captured in the famous Beauchamp Pagaent, held at the British Library in London.
Alongside Richard's pursuits as a knight and courtier, he was also a significant patron of the arts. The outstanding Beauchamp Chapel, attached to St Mary's Collegiate Church in Warwick after his death, remains one of the most exquisite examples of Medieval Architecture to survive in England.
Adam Busiakiewicz and Aaron Manning are historians of Warwick Castle and its Earls. For any further information please get in touch: a.busiakiewicz@live.co.uk / warwickhistorian@gmail.com
I love seeing all of the relatives comment about our ancestor. It really has become a small world.
I just discovered today... I'm of the same royal bloodline as my relative Sir Richard Beauchamp, KG! This is through my late grandmother and it's thrilling to connect with Family from 25th or 28th of Jan., 1382 - April 30th, 1439. 😇🤠☠😈💀🖕
its so cool to learn a little about him. he was my 20th great-grandfather tracked both buy records and dna. for people who are into that stuff and say i am not related.
How would you know about dna?
@@TheLadyPlantagenet because old bones have DNA that can be replicated.
@@NinjaGrrrl7734 no, as in how would she/he have access to the bone dna. The government doesn’t just dig up dead earls and tests their bones on people’s whim.
Well hello cousin.
Richard II s mental health issues must have helped bring on theWar of the Roses, encouraging power hungry and already powerful dukes like Lancaster, Henry Bolingbroke who became Henry IV ... they were honing in on the opportunity. many weak kings in this dynasty like King John, Henry III, Edward II, Richard II, Henry VI...one after the other, and quite recently, in the previous dynasty, William the Conqueror s sons William II and Henry I , and cousin Stephen were considered very poor kings as well...
with all the powerful wealthy dukes and other nobles of strong character hanging around in the wings through all these reigns, it is no wonder there was constant fighting as many nobles probably thought that they could do better ...
it is no wonder that when the Tudor dynasty took power, Henry VII was considered a bit paranoid and prone to removing or cutting the power of nobility and other royalty... and he was followed by Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, who also seemed to understand maintaining control
Spot on.
My ancestors go all the way to Hugh De Beauchamp. Its awesome to see my warrior spirit comes from these famous knights. I myself served the military for 15 years. Runs in the blood
I have the same ancestors. Good to meet you cousin.
Hi cousins 🤍
13th great uncle ☺️
Hey cousin ;-)
Was Richard Beauchamp related to Queen Elizabeth II Windsor?
May I please know which of the countesses had a tame bear? Cause Richard had two wives
So proud of them being my ancestors
Do you guys have a podcast channel on iTunes?
Ancestors of both my wife and I
Not going to explain how Beauchamp becomes beachum
maybe in 1500s when england decided to change prononciation to sound less french,, more unique and "english" ( remember the norman invasion of 1066, where english kings started to speak french for generations
I know how Beauchamp is pronounced
@@brandonbeauchamp6576 lol.
Was my Ancestor in my family tree
My ancestors were probably hung by yours. I'm guessing my family tree is loaded with rogues and scallawags, like yours. But mine didn't wear crowns.
