Anne Boleyn Week 2024

Day 5: Most Underrated Fictional Portrayal: Dorothy Tutin in The Six Wives of Henry VIII (1970)

"You mock me! To other women, to men in my court. You keep people about you who hate me. The things you dare say! 'This child was sired by another man.' You're not fit to be father to my son!" - Anne to Henry

"And I am innocent. That is sure. And I am a victim. That, too, is sure. This whole mockery is unworthy of you, Uncle. It is unworthy of you as representative of my gentle husband. This trial is no trial, but a signature on a document. The poorest subject is given justice that I am denied. I am the Queen and entitled to better than you have given me. Accusations, papers, lies, are easy means of denying the truth to a court of men. But the truth shall be known in that court which shall judge us all in time. I am sorry for you, Cromwell, for in condemning me, you condemn yourself elsewhere. Give your verdict, gentlemen, but remember, I am your Queen." - Anne at her trial

Anne: "The king wants a divorce?"

Cranmer: "Aye, he does."

Anne: "I cannot."

Cranmer: "Yet you were found guilty of those charges."

Anne: "Which he knows to be untrue."

Cranmer: "Your peers judged you."

Anne: "My equals did not." - Anne to Cranmer in the Tower

Anne Boleyn Week 2024

Day 3: Favorite Historical Fact: Anne's involvement in the English Reformation

"What a zealous defender she was of Christ's gospel all the world doth know, and her acts do and will declare to the world's end." - John Foxe in Acts and Monuments (1563)

"Her formative years had impressed upon her what forthright and determined women could achieve. She stood her ground for what she believed in, and her devotion to ideas, especially religious ones, meant she was bound to prove divisive in the aggressively masculine environment of Henry’s court. She was a keen judge of men, appreciating the impetus for change which eager young evangelicals could exert, and was protective and encouraging towards them." - John Guy and Julia Fox in Hunting the Falcon (2023)

"Brief though Anne's influence was, it was a thousand days of support for reform from the throne itself. And hindsight can say more. The breach in the dyke of tradition which she encouraged and protected made the flood first of reformed, and later of more specifically Protestant Christianity, unstoppable. Catholic hatred of Anne damned her for the break with Rome and for the entrance of heresy into England. It was right on both counts." - Eric Ives in The Life and Death of Anne Boleyn (2004)

Anne Boleyn Week 2024

Day 4: Favorite Anne Motto: "The Most Happy"

"In the sixteenth century, the word happy usually meant fortunate or lucky. In light of this, Anne's motto, 'The Most Happy', rather than being haughty or egotistical, is a humble acknowledgement of her privileged position. She was essentially 'the most lucky' because Henry had raised her to be his queen." - Natalie Grueninger in The Final Year of Anne Boleyn (2022)

Anne Boleyn Week 2024

Day 1: Favorite Fictional Portrayal of Anne: Natalie Dormer in The Tudors (2007-2010)

"You are a poet, as I am a woman. Poets and women are always free with their hearts, are they not?"

"I am the King's wife … I know how I got there. And it was not all you. It was not all you, or Norfolk, or George, or any other man you want to name. It was also me. He fell in love with me. He respected me! And my opinions."

"Yes, I heard the executioner was very good. And in any case, I have only a little neck."

Honorable Mention: Dorothy Tutin in The Six Wives of Henry VIII (1970)

"Did you know, three years, but a few days, I lay here dreaming of a coronation? Shall I sleep today, do you think? Shall I ever sleep again?"
