眼下正在伦敦各大剧院上演的最好的两部戏剧,就是关于亨利八世(Henry VIII)的戏剧两部曲——《狼厅》(Wolf Hall)和《血季》(Bring Up the Bodies),之所以提到这两出戏,是因为它们以半虚构手法讲述了亨利八世的“左膀右臂”托马斯·克伦威尔(Thomas Cromwell)的故事。克伦威尔是个奇人,他完全凭借自己的能力,从伦敦普特尼(Putney)卑微的铁匠之子,最终成为英格兰的二号人物。考虑到当时的社会完全由贵族统治,他的成功格外让人惊叹。他领导了向英格兰罗马天主教会发起的挑战,是英格兰宗教改革的关键人物。克伦威尔也是个典型的副手,他让亨利八世能够随心所欲地统治。

He led the challenge to the Roman Catholic Church in England and was a key figure in the religious reform in England. Cromwell is also a typical deputies, he let Henry VIII can dominate arbitrary.
