He was instrumental in the downfall of his cousin Anne Boleyn, onetime ally Thomas Cromwell and bitter rival Cardinal Wolsey. 他在其堂妹安·博林,曾经一度的盟友克伦威尔和老冤家沃尔西主教的垮台中起了重要作用。
I think, after More substituted for Wolsey as an chancellor, the main work of chancellors transfer to justice. 作者认为,经历了自沃尔西向莫尔的转变之后,大法官的工作中心日渐转移到司法工作上。
After Wolsey broke down, outcome of jurisdiction conflicts between common law courts and the chancery rested with kings. 在沃尔西垮台之后,在大法官法院和普通法法院的冲突中,胜负的天平最终操持在国王的手中。
