'Fullye bente to fighte oute the matter': reconsidering Cornwall's role in the Western Rebellion of 1549
The Western Rebellion of 1549 has been much studied and is apparently familiar and soundly understood. But, while scholars have spent a great deal of time considering the causes of the insurrection, they have tended to take the course of events somewhat for granted, and Frances Rose-Troup's massive, 520 page study of the revolt, first published a century ago, continues to be regarded as providing the standard narrative. This article draws on new evidence which has surfaced since Rose-Troup's day - some of it unveiled here for the first time - while reconsidering the material which she used, in order to provide some fresh perspectives on the rebellion, and particularly on its Cornish dimension.

Abstract
The Western Rebellion of 1549 has been much studied and is apparently familiar and soundly understood. But, while scholars have spent a great deal of time considering the causes of the insurrection, they have tended to take the course of events somewhat for granted, and Frances Rose-Troup's massive, 520 page study of the revolt, first published a century ago, continues to be regarded as providing the standard narrative. This article draws on new evidence which has surfaced since Rose-Troup's day - some of it unveiled here for the first time - while reconsidering the material which she used, in order to provide some fresh perspectives on the rebellion, and particularly on its Cornish dimension.
