Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots in History I confess it is no easy task to present a complete and, at the same time, correct picture of her career. The difficulty is owing to the large amount of matter, written in different and contradictory spirits, with which some of the most important events of her life have been obscured. Religion, politics, patriotism, avarice, personal friendships and hatreds, either con jointly or individually, determined the actions of those who bad part in framing the history of the period. It becomes necessary, therefore, to learn how far the men on whose testimony, or from whose conduct, we have to pass judgment on certain incidents in Mary's life, were inﬂuenced by one or other of these motives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots My aim has been to state - fairly, brieﬂy, and clearly - all the more important and more interesting events in Mary's life up to the date of her ﬂight into England, without attempting to suggest or sustain any theory. The text has been almost entirely drawn from the State Papers, the official records, and the letters of the period, and from the contemporary histories and chronicles. Controverted points are freely dealt with in the Notes; and there special attention has been paid to the works of two of the Queen's most recent and best-known biographers - Father Stevenson and Mr. (now Sir John) Skelton. It will be seen that the former has dimmed his great reputation as an historical student by pre judice, partiality, and perversion; and that the latter not only rivals him in these faults, but is so reckless in matters of fact and so careless in quotation that no reliance can be placed on his statements, no weight on his opinions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots: Her Life Story There is no character in modern history whose romantic adventures have awakened more interest than those of Mary Queen of Scots, and there is a perennial fascination in the story of her life which even at the present day shows no sign of abatement. The peculiar time in which she lived, marking, as it did, an epoch of transition in religious afi'airs, and the rapid development of the resources of England, the inveterate enemy of her kingdom, made it desirable that the ruler of the country should be firm and bold to with stand southern encroachment, and liberal and politic to soothe theological difi'erence's. But any natural determination towards tolerance which Mary's character may have originally possessed was warped and distorted by her early education and her disposition, once gentle and confiding, may. Have been changed by her experience of the faithlessness of mankind into that form of stolid distrust which suspects the truest friend and questions the least interested motives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Mary, Queen of Scots The History of Mary Stuart has been written many times; and each successive publication has thrown fresh light upon the subject. At the present day, the number of new documents which have been added to those already known, enable us to relate its vicissitudes in a more complete and truthful manner. In 1734, Keith inserted in his History of Scotland some very valuable papers relating to the reign of Mary Stuart, from the birth of that princess until her flight into England. In continuation of his sober narrative, and in support of his candid and sagacious opinions, Robertson published several documents which he had extracted from the national archives of England and Scotland. The extensive collections of Anderson and Goodall contained all the Acts relating to the memorable discussion which took place at York and Westminster, in 1568, before the Commissioners of the artful Elizabeth, between Mary Stuart and her subjects, regarding the assassination of Darnley. Finally, the important works of Digges, Murdin, Haynes, and Hardwicke, compiled from the State Papers of England, together with the no less interesting publication of Jebb, and the Memoirs of Castelnau de Mauvissiere, as enlarged by Le Laboureur, assisted the student to pursue the history of the captive Queen to her death. This mass of documents has been very largely increased of late years. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Library of Mary Queen of Scots: With an Historical Introduction and a Rare Portrait of the Queen Concerning this wave of feeling that has passed over the minds and thoughts of very many - this species of idolatry that has centred round the name of Mary Stuart, we are tempted to add another word. We would seek to account for the somewhat unreasonable veneration that has been displayed by supposing it to be the modern expression of sixteenth-century chivalry, or such a survival of it, under altered conditions, as it is still possible to retain in a world from which chivalric impulses are generally admitted to have ﬂed. It is undeniable that an outlet must be found for this as for every other human aspiration, and recourse is therefore more frequently had to the creations of fiction rather than to the embodi ments of history. As a general rule, we would humbly submit that the historical portrait-gallery does not supply very many figures over which the mere lovers of romance are accustomed to linger.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots, Vol. 1: Her Environment and Tragedy; A Biography The aim of the present biography is, therefore, to deal with the more personal aspects of the Marian period, and to deal with them apart from ecclesiastical prepossessions, and on the understanding that the praise and blame of the twentieth century are not quite applicable to the sixteenth. Indeed, the more the present writer has concerned himself with the career of Mary Stuart, the more has he been impressed with the inapplicability to it, in the strict sense, of praise or blameq'hatever may be the rights or wrongs of Protestantism or Catholicism, Mary appears to have been very largely the mere victim of a bitter religious quarrel.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mary Queen of Scots, Her Environment and Tragedy, Vol. 2: A Biography Avino thus bafiied Elizabeth and vanquished her brother, by far the most dangerous of all her Scottish foes, Mary, it might seem to some, was past the worst of her perplexities and troubles. Knowing nothing of fear, she was probably anticipating the future with higher hope than had been hers since she found herself in the hands of the Protestants. If her difficulties in the near future were still certain to be great, and if a hard fight was still before her, she had at least freed herself from the incubus of her precise brother she was now, so she fondly attered herself, her own mistress, and her destiny was, so far, under her own control. Since, however, her brother was not in her, but in Elizabeth's, hands, her triumph was more apparent than real; it was laden with curses rather than with blessings to her; and she was really on the very threshold of her tragedies.
