Description

A History of the Tudor Dynasty: How Love Shaped Politics and International Relations in Medieval England

Why did Henry VIII have six wives? Why was Anne Boleyn executed? Was Elizabeth I really greeted at court as a goddess who came down from heaven?

Dramas of courtly love have impressed the imagination of readers and dreamers for centuries. However, they are often perceived as part of fairy tales and ancient legends about King Arthur and chivalry. In reality, the situation was much more complicated. In the book "Tudors in Love. As Loved and Hated in Medieval England, Sarah Gristwood explores how love shaped and broke the Tudor dynasty. From Henry VIII declaring himself "faithful servant" to Anne Boleyn to the poetry surrounding Elizabeth I, this story reveals how the Tudors played the roles of devoted lovers and capricious partners that had their origins in medieval romances.
