Tudors Dynasty & Beyond

Parallel Lives: Boudicca and Urraca I of Leon


Listen Later

Welcome to another edition of our Parallel Lives series, inspired by Plutarch’s classic work. Every Thursday, we pair two historical figures—sometimes our choice, sometimes yours—and uncover the striking parallels in their lives. This week’s episode was a real revelation for me: I’ve long wanted to dive into the story of Boudicca, and now I’ve discovered Urraca as well. Both were formidable ruling queens, blazing their trails centuries before Mary I ever wore the crown!

Have you signed up for FORGING A QUEEN yet? You won't want to miss this rare opportunity to look deep into the story of Katherine of Aragon BEFORE she became queen. It's six-weeks, all online, and you can work at your own pace. Lectures will be available until the beginning of December. We will also have LIVE Q&A's so you can ask Dr. Emma any lingering questions you may have each week. Get your ticket now!
