Acerca deste livro eletrónico
Elizabeth I: The Virgin Queen and Architect of the Golden Age traces the extraordinary life of Elizabeth Tudor, from her precarious childhood as the daughter of Henry VIII and the executed Anne Boleyn to her forty-five-year reign as England’s last Tudor monarch. Declared illegitimate, imprisoned under her sister Mary I, and raised to the throne at twenty-five amid religious division and financial strain, Elizabeth mastered the arts of image-making, strategic delay, and selective decisiveness. The book examines her middle-way religious settlement, her calculated refusal to marry, the long crisis surrounding Mary, Queen of Scots, the defeat of the Spanish Armada, and the cultural flowering that produced Shakespeare and the beginnings of overseas enterprise. It concludes with her later years, the Golden Speech, and the enduring myth of Gloriana—the woman who transformed the liability of a childless female ruler into a symbol of national unity and Protestant confidence.
