Elizabeth I – Gloriana, the Virgin Queen


Listen Later

Elizabeth I’s propaganda images of Gloriana and the Virgin Queen have hugely impacted her reputation as the last Tudor Monarch. Yet the twilight years of her reign were both personally and politically difficult.  

In this final episode in our series, Joint Chief Curator Tracy Borman is joined by renowned historian Dr Helen Castor. Together they contemplate which female relationships shaped this time, and ultimately, how Elizabeth I’s gender has shaped her historic image.  

This is the final Episode in our Elizabeth I series where we explore the women who shaped a queen. 

Read about Elizabeth I’s life as the last Tudor.
