Six Queens

From Out the Book of Memory


Listen Later

To wrap up the Dynasty series, Kate and Cally are discussing the enduring legacies of our six queens and how the impacted the Tudor dynasty (and the British monarchy). In this first part, they're looking at the ways in which the queens' legacies were shaped in the immediate decades following their reigns and deaths.


Using Katherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn as case studies, how did Henry VIII try to undo and erase his queens' reigns? How did the queens themselves have to interact with their predecessors' legacies in order to forge their own public personas? And how did their children's reigns ultimately save them?
