Original language:
“Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived.”They are words that everyone knows, but of Henry VIII’s six wives it is the second, Anne Boleyn, who is the most engaging of them.In this first volume of Friedmann’s classic biography, Anne’s meteoric rise is painted onto a broader canvas, showing how it affected the great powers of Europe — and England.She entered Henry VIII’s life at a time when he was becoming increasingly anxious for a son, and the notion of having his first marriage annulled was growing stronger.But Anne was shrewd and refused to surrender easily to Henry VIII’s infatuation, having no desire to be just another mistress: she saw an opportunity for marriage, and acknowledgement as queen.Over the years that followed Henry VIII’s obsession for Anne — and a male heir — grew, and as the King’s Great Matter came to dominate the political landscape she and her family prospered.Meticulously researched, Friedmann shows how at the heart of the turbulence that would ultimately divide a nation was an accomplished woman whose intelligence and determination won her a king — by her own rules.
