L’#ALMANACCO DEL GIORNO
Il 10 Settembre, nel possibile anniversario della sua morte ad Evesham, in veneranda età, si ricorda Lady Godiva (990-1086?), — nome latinizzato dell'anglosassone Godgifu, cioè "dono del Signore" — vedova del conte Leofrico di Mercia (968-1057).
I. LA LEGGENDA
Secondo la tradizione popolare, in gioventù la bellissima Godiva aveva preso a cuore il destino della popolazione di Coventry, che pativa le tasse oppressive imposte dal conte suo marito. La contessa gli aveva chiesto più volte di ridurle, ma il marito aveva sempre rifiutato, finché — stanco delle sue suppliche — le aveva scherzosamente garantito che, se avesse cavalcato nuda nelle vie della città, avrebbe dato ascolto alla sua richiesta. La buona contessa, prese invece alla lettera le sue parole, aveva cavalcato nuda per le vie di Coventry.
II. ALTRE VERSIONI
Secondo una versione del XIII Secolo della storia, ella aveva attraversato la città durante il mercato, sotto gli occhi di tutti, scortata da due guardie.
Versioni successive della leggenda avrebbero invece riferito che il conte avrebbe emesso proclama dove si ordinava a tutti di chiudersi in casa, tenendo chiuse porte e finestre, mentre i lunghi capelli della contessa l'avrebbero coperta come un vestito. Soltanto una persona in città, un sarto detto Peeping Tom, avrebbe disobbedito, praticando un foro in una persiana per poter vedere il passaggio di Godiva, ma rimanendone cieco.
In ogni caso, alla fine, il conte aveva mantenuto la sua parola e abolito le tasse più onerose.
III. LA VECCHIAIA
Secondo quanto riportato nel "Domesday Book", una sorta di registro censorio voluto nel 1085 dal nuovo Re d'Inghilterra Guglielmo I il Conquistatore (1022-1087), sembrerebbe che Lady Godiva fosse tra i pochi anglosassoni e l'unica donna a rimanere un'importante proprietaria terriera anche dopo la conquista normanna del 1066.
IV. LE FONTI PRIMARIE
Oltre al citato "Domesday Book", le principali fonti primarie sulla vita di Lady Godiva sono il "Chronicon ex chronicis" di Fiorenzo di Worchester (†1118), i "Flores Historiarum" di Ruggero di Wendover (†1236) e le "Chronica majora" di Matteo di Parigi (1200-1259).
V. I TESTI CONSULTATI
Per la redazione di questo articolo sono state consultate varie fonti, tra cui si menzionano la voce "Lady Godiva" dell'Enciclopedia "Britannica", "Countess Godiva", di Cecilia Parsons, "The historical Godiva", di Octavia Randolph, e la voce "Lady Godiva" della "Encyclopædia Romana" di James Grout.
