Narrative Connection

How these two moments in the story relate


Why These Connect

The narrative assertion

"Wolsey's ruin under a barrage of charges foreshadows the danger the Boleyns now face from Harry Percy's pre-contract claim. The same machinery of accusation and legal maneuvering that destroyed Wolsey is now turned against Anne's position, and Cromwell—armed with that lesson—moves to dismantle the threat."
