Book Elizabeth and Mary

Download or read book Elizabeth and Mary written by Jane Dunn and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Superb.... A perceptive, suspenseful account." --The New York Times Book Review "Dunn demythologizes Elizabeth and Mary. In humanizing their dynamic and shifting relationship, Dunn describes it as fueled by both rivalry and their natural solidarity as women in an overwhelmingly masculine world." --Boston Herald The political and religious conflicts between Queen Elizabeth I and the doomed Mary, Queen of Scots, have for centuries captured our imagination and inspired memorable dramas played out on stage, screen, and in opera. But few books have brought to life more vividly the exquisite texture of two women’s rivalry, spurred on by the ambitions and machinations of the forceful men who surrounded them. The drama has terrific resonance even now as women continue to struggle in their bid for executive power. Against the backdrop of sixteenth-century England, Scotland, and France, Dunn paints portraits of a pair of protagonists whose formidable strengths were placed in relentless opposition. Protestant Elizabeth, the bastard daughter of Anne Boleyn, whose legitimacy had to be vouchsafed by legal means, glowed with executive ability and a visionary energy as bright as her red hair. Mary, the Catholic successor whom England’s rivals wished to see on the throne, was charming, feminine, and deeply persuasive. That two such women, queens in their own right, should have been contemporaries and neighbours sets in motion a joint biography of rare spark and page-turning power.

Download or read book Lives of the Queens of Scotland and English Princesses Connected With the Regal Succession of Great Britain Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by Agnes Strickland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives of the Queens of Scotland and English Princesses Connected With the Regal Succession of Great Britain, Vol. 3 More books have been written about Mary Stuart than all the Queens in the world put together; but so greatly do they vary in their representations of her character, that at first it seems scarcely credible how any person could be so differently described. The outline is indeed the same, but, having been colored from opposite points of view, the features become angelic or demoni acal according to the disposition of the lights and shades. The triumph of a creed and a party has, on either side, been more considered than the development of facts, or those principles of moral justice which ought to animate the pen of the historian; and, after all the literary gladiatorship that has been exercised on this subject for nearly three centuries, the point of Mary's guilt or innocence remains undecided, and as much open to dis cussion as ever.
