If, at birth, our Tudor Everywoman was a princess named Elizabeth, and at death a queen named Elizabeth, in between she was – among many other people – a daughter named Anne Boleyn, a servant girl-turned-prophetess named Elizabeth Barton, a businesswoman named Katherine Fenkyll, a widow named Cecily Burbage, a rebel named Margaret Cheyne, a heretic named Anne Askew, and an expatriate of advanced years named Jane Dormer. These particular names have lived on in the history books, and they provide major nodes in a network whose 'minor', but no less illustrative, points comprise much of what follows: the poor wool-spinners of East Anglia, the 'witches' of Surrey and the female apprentices of Bristol; the women who taught and those who fostered learning; the women who vowed to remain chaste and the women who made a living from sex; the women who kept their communities morally upstanding and the women who were driven to slander, thievery and murder; the women whose horizons seemed sunlit, and those whose lives ended in despair, in a noose tied by their own hands.

Still rewatching the Tudors and Natalie Dormer's portrayal of Anne Boleyn is so captivating that after Anne's execution it really does feel like the show should be over. The first episode without her is really jolting. Annabelle Wallis as Jane Seymour is good but she gets little screen time which is a shame. Like I know Jane died young but I feel like they could've explored her character a bit more. I'm halfway through season three and it's a real sausage fest after Jane's death. Don't get me wrong it's still managing to keep my attention but it's just not as good as the first two seasons.

It was perhaps a few months later, when the two half-sisters were at Eltham, that Anne and Mary found themselves in the palace chapel together. An attendant, either out of kindness or in order to see the fun, or as part of a deliberate plot to set Anne up, told her that Mary had acknowledged her before leaving. The queen immediately sent a message to the princess apologizing for not noticing, saying that 'she desires that this may be an entrance of friendly correspondence, which your grace shall find completely to be embraced on her part.' Mary's reply could not have been ruder. From the publicity of her dinner table she declared that the queen could not possibly have sent the message; she was 'so far from this place.' The messenger should have said 'the Lady Anne Boleyn, for I can acknowledge no other Queen but my mother, nor esteem them my friends who are not hers.' Her curtsey, she explained piously, had been made to the altar, 'to her maker and mine.' The story has a good pedigree, but it is a late one, and we may doubt whether even Mary dared to be that offensive. But even allowing considerable discount, Anne would still have been justified in being offended.
The Life & Death of Anne Boleyn, Eric Ives
