4,5 🌟 Was für eine bewegende Geschichte. Ich gebe zu, Philippa Gregorys Nachwort ist das erste, welches ich mit völliger Hingabe lese.... d͟i͟s͟c͟l͟a͟i͟m͟e͟r͟: ｅｓ ｋö ｎｎｅｎ ｓｐｏｉｌｅｒ ｆｏｌｇｅｎ... 𝒶𝓊𝓉𝒽𝑜𝓇𝓈 𝓃𝑜𝓉𝑒... It is extraordinary to me that Kateryn the Quene KP (as she signed herself is not better known. As the last of Henry's queens she survived a wife-killer who saw four of her five predecessors into the grave, which must make her one of the most tenacious survivor wives in history. She faced and defeated a series of plots from supporters of the papist side of the English Church who were determined to restore their faith to England, she raised the king's two younger children in the Protestant faith that would be the core of their own reigns, and yet she befriended the king's papist oldest daughter, Lady Mary, and supported her return to royal status. She served the country as regent - the most important person in England - and kept the peace in the absence of the king In many ways one can see her similarities to the other wives: she was made regent like the Spanish royal, Katherine of Aragon, she was English born and bred like Katherine Howard, an educated and highly intelligent reformer in religion like Anne Boleyn, and as a Northerner an outsider like Anne of Cleves. She raised Jane Seymour's son and loved her brother; perhaps, if Jane had lived, she would have been Jane's sister-in-law. But the most interesting thing about her was her scholarship. We don't know the extent of her education when she first came to Henry‘s court as the young widow.... and so on. 🖤
