Perkin Warbeck is a Caroline era history play by John Ford.
 It is generally ranked as one of Ford's three masterpieces, along with "'Tis Pity She's a Whore" and "The Broken Heart".
 T. S. Eliot went so far as to call "Perkin Warbeck" "unquestionably Ford's highest achievement...one of the very best historical plays outside of the works of Shakespeare in the whole of Elizabethan and Jacobean drama."
The Fortunes of Perkin Warbeck: A Romance is an 1830 historical novel by Mary Shelley about the life of Perkin Warbeck.
 The book takes a Yorkist point of view and proceeds from the conceit that Perkin Warbeck died in childhood and the supposed impostor was indeed Richard of Shrewsbury.
 Henry VII of England is repeatedly described as a "fiend" who hates Elizabeth of York, his wife and Richard's sister, and the future Henry VIII, mentioned only twice in the novel, is a vile youth who abuses dogs.
 Her preface establishes that records of the Tower of London, as well as the histories of Edward Hall, Raphael Holinshed, and Francis Bacon, the letters of Sir John Ramsay to Henry VII that are printed in the Appendix to John Pinkerton's History of Scotland establish this as fact.
 Each chapter opens with a quotation.
 The entire book is prefaced with a quotation in French by Georges Chastellain and Jean Molinet.
Sir Thomas Thwaites or Thwaytes (c.1435–1503) was an English civil servant, who was involved in the Perkin Warbeck conspiracy.
Perkin Warbeck (c. 1474 – 23 November 1499) was a pretender to the English throne.
This is a list of works by Mary Shelley (30 August 1797 – 1 February 1851), the British novelist, short story writer, dramatist, essayist, biographer, and travel writer, best known for her Gothic novel "Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus" (1818).
 She also edited and promoted the works of her husband, the Romantic poet and philosopher Percy Bysshe Shelley.
 Until the 1970s, Mary Shelley was known mainly for her efforts to publish Percy Shelley's works and for "Frankenstein".
 Recent scholarship has yielded a more comprehensive view of Mary Shelley’s achievements, however.
 Scholars have shown increasing interest in her literary output, particularly in her novels, which include the historical novels "Valperga" (1823) and "Perkin Warbeck" (1830), the apocalyptic novel "The Last Man" (1826), and her final two novels, "Lodore" (1835) and "Falkner" (1837).
 Studies of her lesser-known works such as the travel book "Rambles in Germany and Italy" (1844) and the biographical articles for Dionysius Lardner's "Cabinet Cyclopaedia" (1829–46) support the growing view that Mary Shelley remained a political radical throughout her life.
 Mary Shelley's works often argue that cooperation and sympathy, particularly as practised by women in the family, were the ways to reform civil society.
 This view was a direct challenge to the individualistic Romantic ethos promoted by Percy Shelley and Enlightenment political theories.
William Parron (b. c. 1460, fl.
