March 17 - Alexander Alesius and his terrifying vision of Anne Boleyn

On this day in Tudor history, 17th March 1565, Scottish theologian and Reformer Alexander Alesius (also known as Ales, Aless), died in either Leipzig or Edinburgh. Alesius wrote a huge number of theological works, was friends with reformers Philip Melancthon and Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury, but had a row with the Bishop of London at one point. Let Claire Ridgway, author of "On This Day in Tudor History", tell you a bit more about Alexander Alesius and also a terrifying vision or nightmare he experience in the early hours of 19th May 1536, the day of Queen Anne Boleyn's execution. Here's a link to see a list of works by Alesius - http://www.prdl.org/author_view.php?s=0&limit=20&a_id=27 You can see this podcast as a video at the following link: https://youtu.be/fj6N4BEMoYc Also on this day in Tudor history, 17th March 1554, Princess Elizabeth, the future Queen Elizabeth I, stalled her arrest by writing her famous Tide Letter.
