Notorious Women ➝ The Women of Edward III’s Court
“Given his impressive fifty year long reign, one would expect history to wax on at more length about Edward III. Yet it is the women in his life, his court, that are best remembered. From his mother who forcibly wrestled away the throne from his father with the help of her lover, to his scandalous daughter-in-laws from which the modern line of the monarchy sprung, to his own lover who became one of the most powerful and despised women in English history.”

The boldness and scale of her achievement are often overlooked. The campaign that Mary led in the summer of 1553 would prove to be the only successful revolt against central government in sixteenth-century England. She, like her grandfather Henry VII and grandmother Isabella of Castile, had to fight for her throne. In the moment of crisis she proved decisive, courageous, and “Herculean”—and won the support of the English people as the legitimate Tudor heir. (X)

Isabella I of Castile had fertility issues as well… Maybe not false pregnancies like her granddaughter Mary, and she conceived quickly the first time, but 5 years passed between her first and second pregnancy, which resulted in stillbirth, and then she couldn’t conceive again for another 2-3 years.

Some Spanish authors, however, did credit Mary herself or the couple working together for the restoration of Catholicism. Francisco Garrido de Villena, a caballero of Valencia, wrote that Mary, the “sovereign queen” who was “more than human,” worked “a miracle” in England by restoring the religion that had been “lost to a cursed Lutheran sect.” Bartolomé Carranza, the queen’s confessor, referred to Mary and Philip as the “Catholic Kings who restored the ancient and true religion.” Previously, the title “Catholic Kings” was associated with Isabel of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon, Mary’s grandparents and Philip’s great-grandparents, who had united the two major kingdoms of Spain through their marriage in 1474 and conquered the Muslim Kingdom of Granada in 1492, thereby concluding the centuries-long Reconquista. Carranza made the connection between Isabel-Ferdinand and Mary-Philip explicit in his preface “to the pious reader” by referring to “the Catholic Kings,” meaning Isabel and Ferdinand, on the first page, then referring to “the Catholic Kings,” meaning Mary and Philip, on the next page, but whereas Isabel and Ferdinand had lived before Martin Luther and thus commanded the Bible to be translated into the vernacular, Mary and Philip removed vernacular Bibles in order to restore Catholicism to England, according to Carranza. For Spaniards, the implication of Carranza’s use of the title was that Mary and Philip were supervising a new reconquest, one that was less militarized if no less religiously contentious than the first. Further, his use of the masculine “kings” to refer to both Mary and Philip suggested an equality between them, just as Isabel and Ferdinand had maintained an equilibrium throughout their marriage.

Isabel was a devoted mother who kept her daughters close to hand, supervising their education and preparing them for marriage to a foreign prince or king and for life in a foreign court.
Their messages of emotional expression echo across the centuries, telling us of the costs of physical and political failure borne by women who failed in the duty to provide a male heir. This must have been deeply frustrating for Catherine, whose own mother was witness to the fact that a woman could indeed inherit and rule successfully. For her, a daughter was not dynastic failure, it was a joy. In the early 1520s, Catherine devoted herself to her daughter, Mary, the center of her emotional world and, she believed, the anchor of her marriage and status as queen consort.
- Theresa Earenfight, Catherine of Aragon: Infanta of Spain, Queen of England
