| | Henry was raised in the French province of Anjou and first visited England in 1142 to defend his mother's claim to the disputed throne of Stephen. | | | Henry empowered a new social class of government clerks that stabilized procedure - the government could operate effectively in the king's absence and would subsequently prove sufficiently tenacious to survive the reign of incompetent kings. | | | The deaths of Henry the Young King in 1183 and Geoffrey in 1186 gave no respite from his children's rebellious nature; Richard, with the assistance of Philip II Augustus of France, attacked and defeated Henry on July 4, 1189 and forced him to accept a humiliating peace. |

| | Henry Stanley - Dr. Livingstone I Presume? |
| | Stanley was going to gather supplies for Livingstone, and travelled back to the Indian Ocean coast at Bagamoyo and Zanzibar, arriving there in May. His news of finding Livingstone reached Europe and New York in August 1872, and he was greeted with much controversy when he later arrived in England. | | | Stanley then travelled into the Crimea, where he reported on the battle sites of the Crimean War of 1853-56. | | | Stanley stormed out of one testimonial dinner because he thought he was being condescended to, and while he received a somewhat warmer reception in New York, some newspapers portrayed Stanley in a negative light, even bringing up his desertion from the Navy. |

| | Meanwhile the strength of Henry's position at home had been much developed by Wolsey's judicious diplomacy, and, despite the costliness of some of England's demonstrations against France, before the French king became the emperor's prisoner at Pavia, the odium of the demand for money fell upon the minister, while Henry retained all his popularity. | | | This was in fact the course which from the latter part of 1529 Henry undeviatingly followed, though he did not at first go to lengths from which there was no retreat. | | | Henry also petitioned, in the event of his becoming free, a dispensation to contract a new marriage with any woman even in the first degree of affinity, whether the affinity was contracted by lawful or unlawful connexion. |

| | When news of Daguerre's process reached England in January 1839, Talbot rushed publication of his "photogenic drawing" process and explained his technique in detail to the members of the Royal Society some six months before the French government divulged working directions for the daguerreotype. | | | Talbot's calotypes involved the use of a photographic negative, from which multiple prints could be made; had his method been announced but a few weeks earlier, he and not Daguerre would probably have been known as the founder of photography. | | | In 1851 Talbot discovered a way of taking instantaneous photographs, and his "photolyphic engraving" (patented in 1852 and 1858), a method of using printable steel plates and muslin screens to achieve quality middle tones of photographs on printing plates, was the precursor to the development in the 1880s of the more successful halftone plates. |
