The Broken Shelf 161: Game of Queens
[Warning] This episode contains explicit language and explicit themes. Listener discretion is advised.
European history is filled with the legend of kings. In fact, you could argue most of that history was formed by the whims and strategy of said kings. But what about the queens? Were they simply used as political devices and breeders? Sarah Gristwood argues that the world we know today is a result of the powerful queens we know little about. More than just Elizabeth, the monarchs of the sixteenth-century were or had to converse with powerful women; woman the contemporary society should learn more from and about. Danny dives into a story filled with many protagonists, but to drive how the author's might point and position, he focuses on two sister's and how their rivaling kingdom led them to overseeing one of Europe's greatest, but short lived peace. Take a listen as Danny provides a history lesson on two fascinating women and how much he loves the phenomenal work of Gristwood. Enjoy a lesson on powerful women and why we need to know more about them!
