塔中的王子

 塔中的王子

Paul King

1933年,两个小男孩的骸骨被从威斯敏斯特教堂挖出,其中一个大约10岁,另一个13岁,由L.E. Tannery和W. Wright检查。

这些骨头在1674年被重新埋在一个骨灰盒里,并被放置在修道院的亨利七世礼拜堂里。 这些骨架引起了很多人的兴趣和争论,因为许多历史学家认为它们是15世纪在伦敦塔被谋杀的两位王子的骨头。

这些王子是爱德华五世和他的兄弟约克公爵,是爱德华四世和他的王后伊丽莎白-伍德维尔的儿子。 他们的叔叔,格洛斯特的理查德,即后来的理查德三世,在他们之后继承。

在他的 "历史 "中,托马斯-莫尔爵士非常肯定这些小男孩是被他们的叔叔格洛斯特的理查德谋杀的,莎士比亚也把理查德三世描绘成邪恶的杀人叔叔。

托马斯-莫尔爵士在他的著作中说,王子们被埋在 "楼梯脚下,非常深",当然在1674年,在伦敦塔的改建过程中发现两具骸骨被埋在石阶下。

坦纳里先生和赖特教授在1933年得出结论,王子们 "很可能 "在1483年夏天去世。

托马斯-莫尔爵士说,王子们被詹姆斯-泰尔爵士、约翰-戴顿和迈尔斯-弗雷斯特用床上的枕头闷死了。 据报道,泰尔在1502年因叛国罪被判处死刑时承认了这一罪行。

但谁给提利尔和他的同伙下了命令?

理查三世是与两个小王子之谜联系最紧密的名字。 据说他让他们被杀,因为他们对王位的权利比他强。 莎士比亚当然认定是他下的命令,让这两个男孩被杀。

但亨利-都铎,在博斯沃思战役中击败理查三世后,于1485年成为亨利七世,他对王位的要求更加不稳定。 他的要求是建立在征服权的基础上!"!

理查德三世 亨利七世

如果王子们在1485年还活着,而且他们有可能活着,他们会让亨利感到非常尴尬,而亨利和理查德一样可以从这两个小男孩的死亡中得到很多好处。

没有任何证据证明亨利有罪,就像没有证据证明理查德有罪一样。

亨利获得王位后,立即指责理查德的残忍和暴政,但奇怪的是,他并没有提到小王子们被谋杀的事。 亨利直到1486年7月才宣布这两个男孩被谋杀,这几乎是理查德死后一年。

我们很可能永远不会知道王子们到底发生了什么,因此这仍将是有史以来最耐人寻味的谁干的事件之一。
