Book Synopsis Queen Margot and the End of the Valois, 1553-1615 by : Charles Merki
Download or read book Queen Margot and the End of the Valois, 1553-1615 written by Charles Merki and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-02 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marguerite de Valois was the last of her line. Margot, used as a political weapon during her youth, by her own family, was turned into another one following her death. Pamphleteers and propagandists for the new Bourbon dynasty of Margot's husband, King Henri IV of Navarre, and then of France in 1589, sought to portray Queen Marguerite as a loose woman, a sexual libertine, to discredit the Valois line. This type of attack has always been used against women of political power, and of course it became the stuff of legend and common stereotype until about the time of Merki's volume. This author traces Margot as a political role player amidst a violent era and its clannish peculiarities, especially her entanglement with the fanatical religious element, always in the picture.Merki organized the story into three sections: 1.) era of the Valois in the 16th century: Catherine de Medici; Court life, and morals; youth of Marguerite; Protestants; negotiations for marriage; union with Henri de Navarre; marriage of Marguerite; St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre; Conspiracy of the Politiques; death of Charles IX; troubled relations with Henri III; 2.) Margot as Queen of Navarre: quarrels of the mignons; escape of the Duke of Anjou; the Flanders Expedition; War of the Lovers; rebellious Margot; she declares for League; refuge in Auvergne; prisoner of the Château d'Usson; 3.) final years: accession of Henri IV; negotiation with Margot and Divorce of 1599; Conspiracy of Auvergne; Margot leaves Usson for Paris; Margot builds the Hôtel des Augustins; Regency of Marie de Medici.This is the first and only translation of Merki into English. Every effort has been made to convey the spirit of the writing style of Merki while making it accessible to a modern English speaking audience. F.H. Wallis Translation continues to seek out and publish older works of the highest scholarship on the history of France.

Book excerpt: Margaret of Valois (French: Marguerite, 14 May 1553 - 27 March 1615) was Queen of Navarre and of France during the late sixteenth century.

Notably, she was the last surviving member of the House of Valois.

Book Synopsis The Rival Queens by : Nancy Goldstone
Download or read book The Rival Queens written by Nancy Goldstone and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2015-06-23 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The riveting true story of mother-and-daughter queens Catherine de' Medici and Marguerite de Valois, whose wildly divergent personalities and turbulent relationship changed the shape of their tempestuous and dangerous century. Set in magnificent Renaissance France, this is the story of two remarkable women, a mother and daughter driven into opposition by a terrible betrayal that threatened to destroy the realm. Catherine de' Medici was a ruthless pragmatist and powerbroker who dominated the throne for thirty years. Her youngest daughter Marguerite, the glamorous "Queen Margot," was a passionate free spirit, the only adversary whom her mother could neither intimidate nor control. When Catherine forces the Catholic Marguerite to marry her Protestant cousin Henry of Navarre against her will, and then uses her opulent Parisian wedding as a means of luring his followers to their deaths, she creates not only savage conflict within France but also a potent rival within her own family. Rich in detail and vivid prose, Goldstone's narrative unfolds as a thrilling historical epic. Treacherous court politics, poisonings, international espionage, and adultery form the background to a story that includes such celebrated figures as Elizabeth I, Mary, Queen of Scots, and Nostradamus. The Rival Queens is a dangerous tale of love, betrayal, ambition, and the true nature of courage, the echoes of which still resonate.

Book Synopsis The Myth of the Reine Margot by : Robert J. Sealy
Download or read book The Myth of the Reine Margot written by Robert J. Sealy and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1994 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Divorce Satyrique is an anonymous biographical sketch of Marguerite de Valois. Although a proclaimed satire, the document was accepted as historical fact and it single-handedly spawned the myth of the Reine Margot. Despite her political and historical insignificance, this account immortalized Marguerite de Valois as an exceptionally frivolous and hedonistic woman. From manuscript sources, Robert J. Sealy. S.J. proves that a critical incident in the Divorce is purely fictional. By distilling fiction from fact, the author lays the groundwork for future analysis of the text and of its historical impact.
