Podcasts about Virgin queen

Before she became Queen Elizabeth I, Elizabeth Tudor was surrounded by scandal, suspicion and deadly intrigue. Born to Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII, Elizabeth was a princess by birth—until her mother was executed and her title revoked. Declared illegitimate, orphaned and caught in a storm of politics, Elizabeth faced threats from all sides. How did a child written off by the court become one of England's most iconic monarchs?Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by Dr. Nicola Tallis, author of Young Elizabeth: The Making of the Virgin Queen, to trace Elizabeth's incredible transformation—from disgraced daughter to Queen of England.Presented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.

Elizabeth I is perhaps the most famous Queen of England, reigning from November 1558 until her death in 1603. When you study her life, you quickly learn that she was known as “the Virgin Queen” for her staunch stance against marriage. Despite directives from her court and intense peer pressure from those around her, Elizabeth faced down scandal, rumors, and suspicion throughout her reign, only to remain stalwart in her commitment to not only never marry, but to never be known as someone whose virginity was taken from her. Given that the royal lineage is so important not only in England, but in all monarchal governments, and that literal wars have been fought over the rightful heir to the throne, it is definitely a challenge to the status quo that Elizabeth not only did not produce an heir, but intentionally chose not to do so. Here this week to help us explore what this stance was like for people of England, why it was so important to Elizabeth that she risked so greatly to maintain her choice, as well what happened at her death that prevented a war from rising up with the lack of an heir, is our guest, British historian, and professional history podcaster, Carol Ann LLoyd.   Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Gloriana had illuminated an era, for which she gave it her name. A grand ceremony was about to begin. Her Majesty was dressed for the occasion and coiffed in style. Good Queen Bess always dominated special occasions and today would be no exception. Her subjects would pay her homage, as they should. Although Regina’s Monarch and Sovereign official portraits had not changed in decades—propagating intemporal youth and vigor throughout her realm—today her mask would be removed, finally exposing her true visage. Anyone who was ‘anyone’ in the Kingdom was present. The Monarch’s favorite seamstress remained close by, at her post, assuring her anointed Sovereign’s costume was impeccable. The Virgin Queen was ready. She lay still, dignified, royal, arms to either side, reposed in regal attire, attended by her ladies in waiting, ready for one last opulent public appearance... her funeral.

Let’s examine the clever and effective use of political art during the reign of Queen Elizabeth while visiting Jesus College founded in 1571 under the reign of the Monarch, making it the only Elizabethan College within the University of Oxford. Paintings of her likeness demonstrated the Tudor concept of power. The portraiture of Queen Elizabeth the First of England illustrates the evolution of English royal portraits from the representations of simple likenesses to the later multifaceted imagery used to convey the power, authority, supremacy and aspirations of the state, as well as of the monarch at its head. Elizabeth paid more attention to propaganda than art, disseminating her portraits widely throughout her realm, including North America.

Elizabeth was born at Greenwich in 1533 and was the daughter of the Tudor King Henry VIII by his second wife Anne Boleyn. Elizabeth succeeded her half-sister Queen Mary to the throne in 1558. Elizabeth’s long reign was one of the most brilliant in English history. Referred to as The Golden Age, it is remembered for the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588, the execution of Mary, Queen of Scots the year before, and for many important voyages of exploration and discovery to North America. Known as the Virgin Queen, the colony of Virginia along the eastern coast was named after her.

On 24th March 1603, Queen Elizabeth I passed away at the age of 69—but what exactly caused her death? Despite being one of history's most documented monarchs, the exact cause of Elizabeth's death remains a mystery. Historians and medical experts have proposed various theories, including: - A deadly tooth abscess—Could an infection have turned septic? - Lead poisoning—Did her makeup slowly poison her? - Pneumonia—She suffered breathing difficulties and fever. - Streptococcus infection—Could an untreated illness have taken her life? - Psychogenic death—Did she literally give up on life?   Elizabeth's final weeks were filled with grief, exhaustion, and refusal of medical treatment. Was she suffering from a fatal illness, or did loneliness and heartbreak cause her slow decline? Join me as I explore the mysteries surrounding Elizabeth's final days and discuss the most convincing theories.   What do you think killed Elizabeth I?   #ElizabethI #TudorHistory #TheVirginQueen #Mystery #TudorDynasty #HistoryLovers #RoyalHistory #16thCentury #WhatKilledElizabethI #BritishHistory #TudorMysteries

In 1588, the dreaded Spanish Armada is coming closer and closer. It's up to the Queen’s Sea Dogs and navy to stop them, but will they succeed in convincing Queen Elizabeth that such action is necessary? And when the Spanish ships finally arrive, what will happen to the Virgin Queen and the citizens of London? And how will this affect the exploration, settlement and colonization of America? The eventual defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588 brought fame, both for England and Queen Elizabeth I, and greatly affected the future development of America. Europe was stunned that such a small island nation had successfully defended itself against such a major aggressor and foreign diplomats began to court England as a possible ally. Elizabeth's popularity soared. The impact of the victory for the nation's self-confidence and the future of American exploration and colonization cannot be overestimated. England’s success was celebrated in all manners of ways. Songs were written, medals struck, portraits painted and prints published. All lauded Elizabeth as a savior who stood firm to protect her nation, shared the glory of the success with the English navy and gave thanks for divine intervention.

Queen Elizabeth I was a formidable leader who defied the norms of her time, cleverly balancing the expectations placed upon her as a woman with her ambitions as a ruler. An Indian director and an Australian lead actor came together to bring us a truly brilliant biographical drama on the ascension to the-then Catholic English throne of the Protestant Elizabeth I, in Shekhar Kapur's Elizabeth.Queen Elizabeth I was a powerful female figure in a male-dominated society, and Elizabeth accurately emphasizes her real life ability to navigate political waters with grace and power. Cate Blanchett's performance as the young Elizabeth is not just iconic; it's a masterclass in acting, showcasing her transformation from a naive young woman to a formidable queen. That doesn't mean this movie is particularly historically accurate in other things, though.There was no poisoned dress. It was totally fabricated. ;-)Regardless of accuracy, Elizabeth's legacy gives us a glimpse of what life may have been like for the UK without the Virgin Queen's influence, and its implications for contemporary discussions on gender and power. Elizabeth herself is not just as a historical figure but a symbol of resilience and strength for women everywhere.

Mary I & Elizabeth I   They were daughters of Henry VIII, England's first two crowned queens regnant, and two of the most formidable women in Tudor history. Yet while Mary I's reign lasted just five years, Elizabeth ruled for over 44 years, shaping what many consider a Golden Age.     - Both fought for their thrones—Mary against Lady Jane Grey, Elizabeth against Mary, Queen of Scots.   - Both built up England's navy, laying the groundwork for future triumphs.   - Both were married to the state—Mary to Catholicism and Philip of Spain, Elizabeth to England itself.   - Both could be merciful and ruthless—Mary executed Lady Jane Grey, Elizabeth executed Mary, Queen of Scots.   - Both had the famous Tudor temper!   But their differences defined their legacies…   - Mary was a devout Catholic, Elizabeth a pragmatic Protestant.   - Mary married a king, Elizabeth remained the Virgin Queen.   - Mary's reign is remembered for the Marian persecutions, while Elizabeth's is hailed as a Golden Age—but is that fair?     Did history unjustly overshadow Mary, or was Elizabeth truly England's greatest queen? Let's explore their fascinating stories—listen now!     #MaryI #ElizabethI #TudorHistory #OnThisDay #TudorQueens #BritishMonarchy #HistoryMatters

NLS annotation Anne Boleyn & Elizabeth I: the mother and daughter who changed history DB124509 Author: Borman, Tracy Reading Time: 8 hours, 53 minutes Read by: Tracy Borman Subjects: World History and Affairs, Biography of Heads of State and Political Figures, Women “One of the most extraordinary mother and daughter stories of all time – Anne Boleyn, the most famous of Henry VIII’s wives and her daughter Elizabeth, the ‘Virgin Queen’. Anne Boleyn is a subject of enduring fascination. By far the most famous of Henry VIII’s six wives, she has inspired books, documentaries and films, and is the subject of intense debate even today, almost 500 years after her violent death. For the most part, she is considered in the context of her relationship with Tudor England’s much-married monarch. Dramatic though this story is, of even greater interest – and significance – is the relationship between Anne and her daughter, the future Elizabeth I. Elizabeth was less than three years old when her mother was executed. Given that she could have held precious few memories of Anne, it is often assumed that her mother exerted little influence over her. But this is both inaccurate and misleading. Elizabeth knew that she had to be discreet about Anne, but there is compelling evidence that her mother exerted a profound influence on her character, beliefs and reign. Even during Henry’s lifetime, Elizabeth dared to express her sympathy for her late mother by secretly wearing Anne’s famous ‘A’ pendant when she sat for a painting with her father and siblings. Piecing together evidence from original documents and artefacts, this book tells the story of Anne Boleyn’s relationship with, and influence over her daughter Elizabeth. In so doing, it sheds new light on two of the most famous and influential women in history.”– From publisher. Unrated. Commercial audiobook. London : Audible Studios, 2023.

From Tudor to Stuart: The Regime Change from Elizabeth I to James I (Oxford UP, 2024) tells the story of the troubled accession of England's first Scottish king and the transition from the age of the Tudors to the age of the Stuarts at the dawn of the seventeenth century. From Tudor to Stuart: The Regime Change from Elizabeth I to James I tells the story of the dramatic accession and first decade of the reign of James I and the transition from the Elizabethan to the Jacobean era, using a huge range of sources, from state papers and letters to drama, masques, poetry, and a host of material objects. The Virgin Queen was a hard act to follow for a Scottish newcomer who faced a host of problems in his first years as king: not only the ghost of his predecessor and her legacy but also unrest in Ireland, serious questions about his legitimacy on the English throne, and even plots to remove him (most famously the Gunpowder Plot of 1605). Contrary to traditional assumptions, James's accession was by no means a smooth one. The really important question about James's reign, of course, is the extent of change that occurred in national political life and royal policies. Sue Doran also examines how far the establishment of a new Stuart dynasty resulted in fresh personnel at the centre of power, and the alterations in monarchical institutions and shifts in political culture and governmental policies that occurred. Here the book offers a fresh look at James and his wife Anna, suggesting a new interpretation of their characters and qualities. But the Jacobean era was not just about James and his wife, and Regime Change includes a host of historical figures, many of whom will be familiar to readers: whether Walter Raleigh, Robert Cecil, or the Scots who filled James's inner court. The inside story of the Jacobean court also brings to life the wider politics and national events of the early seventeenth century, including the Gunpowder Plot, the establishment of Jamestown in Virginia, the Plantations in Ulster, the growing royal struggle with parliament, and the doomed attempt to bring about union with Scotland.

**Discussion begins at 4:15**We are drinking some high tea and going back to England to talk about Queen Elizabeth I... not to be confused with the queen that just passed away.  RIP.  We're talking about Queen Elizabeth today because... guys... she could have been a man.  Queen Elizabeth I is the last of the Tudor monarchy in old England.  She was the daughter of the infamous King Henry VIII, and lived from 1533-1603, when she died at age 69.  She was known for being the Virgin Queen because she never took a husband, and pledged herself to the service of England.  During her reign she restored England to the Protestant Church, she executed the Queen of the Scots, Mary Stuart, and led the country to defeat the Spanish Armada.  But was Queen Elizabeth really the virgin queen?  Was it her who actually reigned for 54 years, or was it an impostor put forth to continue the Tudor dynasty?Send us a textSupport the showTheme song by INDA

The really important question about James's reign, of course, is the extent of change that occurred in national political life and royal policies. Sue Doran also examines how far the establishment of a new Stuart dynasty resulted in fresh personnel at the centre of power, and the alterations in monarchical institutions and shifts in political culture and governmental policies that occurred. Here the book offers a fresh look at James and his wife Anna, suggesting a new interpretation of their characters and qualities. But the Jacobean era was not just about James and his wife, and Regime Change includes a host of historical figures, many of whom will be familiar to readers: whether Walter Raleigh, Robert Cecil, or the Scots who filled James's inner court. The inside story of the Jacobean court also brings to life the wider politics and national events of the early seventeenth century, including the Gunpowder Plot, the establishment of Jamestown in Virginia, the Plantations in Ulster, the growing royal struggle with parliament, and the doomed attempt to bring about union with Scotland.

From Tudor to Stuart: The Regime Change from Elizabeth I to James I (Oxford UP, 2024) tells the story of the troubled accession of England's first Scottish king and the transition from the age of the Tudors to the age of the Stuarts at the dawn of the seventeenth century. From Tudor to Stuart: The Regime Change from Elizabeth I to James I tells the story of the dramatic accession and first decade of the reign of James I and the transition from the Elizabethan to the Jacobean era, using a huge range of sources, from state papers and letters to drama, masques, poetry, and a host of material objects. The Virgin Queen was a hard act to follow for a Scottish newcomer who faced a host of problems in his first years as king: not only the ghost of his predecessor and her legacy but also unrest in Ireland, serious questions about his legitimacy on the English throne, and even plots to remove him (most famously the Gunpowder Plot of 1605).

Dive into the world of Queen Elizabeth I, the iconic Virgin Queen who steered England through its golden age. We'll explore her controversial choice to die unmarried and the lineage debates it sparked. Most intriguingly, we uncover a startling conspiracy theory—was Elizabeth I harboring a secret so profound it could rewrite British royal history? Unravel the layers of mystery and deceit in this episode of royal intrigue and hidden truths. Join us as we seek the truth behind the throne!  

Elizabeth is often known in history books as the "Virgin Queen". As we will see in this episode, to remain unwed was a conscious choice she cultivated from the very beginning of her reign. It gave her independence. And it allowed her to chart England's religious course, very much a compromise, without foreign interference. WebsitePatreon Support

In the Elizabethan period the Italian Renaissance came to England. Even though the English had broken with the Roman Church they were still following the Italians in astrology, philosophy, alchemy and Magick. During the reign of The Virgin Queen the British would exceed the Italians in that one aspect of the Hermetic Arts – Magick. The Angelic Revelation of Dr. John Dee is certainly the high water mark of Renaissance Theurgy. But we magicians sometimes forget that the English Elizabethan period was a Magical Age. It was the Time of Shakespeare's “The Tempest”, Milton's “Paradise Lost” and Spencer's “The Faerie Queene.” Magick was in the air. So let us look back on this golden age and recall some of its magical treasures.

The Tudors are one of the most well-known of the English royal dynasties for several reasons: the larger than life characters, the multiple marriages and Virgin Queen, and the extraordinary portraits. When Hans Holbein the Younger became Henry VIII's painter, he helped create an image of the king that has shaped our understanding of the Tudors. Franny Moyle joins us to share her research into how Holbein helped create the legacy of Henry VIII.Show Notes:Carol Ann Lloydwww.carolannlloyd.com@shakeuphistorypatreon.com/carolannlloydThe Tudors by Numbers, published by Pen and SwordFranny MoyleFrannymoyle.comThe King's Painter: The Life and Times of Hans Holbein(Can buy dedicated copy of the UK hardback, which has the best images, on her website)@frannymoyleCreative Director: Lindsey LindstromMusic: History by Andy_Grey via Audio Jungle, Music Broadcast LicenseLet's shake up history together!@shakeuphistory

Our chapter today awakens with the splendour of a late spring morning and invites you to join our intrepid travellers amongst the picturesque streets of Kingston and the quietly passing river. Immersed in these idyllic surroundings, we lose ourselves in the musing fit that their tranquillity induces. Listen, as our heroes in their boat, bring history alive, whisking us back to bygone days when Saxon kings were crowned and Roman legions made their camp by the riverside. Drenched in historical context, this chapter traverses time, exploring antiquity and tranquility before jolting us back into the bustle of boating mishaps and poignant observations on life's ironies. Whether it's the pub-hopping habits of England's Virgin Queen or the many unfortunate ailments of Stivvings, the narrative weaves together humour, reflection, and a hearty dose of sarcasm. As we wander through the Hampton Court Maze, with Harris as an increasingly helpless guide, the chapter spirals into a memorable mix of comedy and frustration. Dip your toes into the delightful commentary on the peculiarity of life and the often nonsensical human nature, with examples ranging from the appreciation of carved oak to the peculiarities of love and desire. Don't be surprised if you find yourself empathizing with the bewildered Harris, or chuckling at the observations of a china dog oft overlooked by its present-day owners but destined for future admiration.

In today's episode, we turn once again to the great monarchs of England. This time, we're debunking myths about the woman who was the daughter of Henry VIII and one of England's greatest rulers: Queen Elizabeth I, the Virgin Queen. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/revisionisthistory/support

For many, Elizabeth I was England's greatest monarch – rising through the deadly intrigue and plots of court to ascend to the throne, and then defeating the Spanish Armada and saving the kingdom. All, supposedly, while spurning the advances of her many suitors. But how much of it is true, and how much glorious myth making?
