Produktinformationen zu „Lady Jane Grey (PDF)“
Lady Jane Grey, is one of the most elusive and tragic characters in
English history.
In July 1553 the death of the childless Edward VI threw the
Tudor dynasty into crisis. On Edward's instructions his cousin Jane
Grey was proclaimed queen, only to be ousted 13 days later by his
illegitimate half sister Mary and later beheaded. In this radical
reassessment, Eric Ives rejects traditional portraits of Jane both
as hapless victim of political intrigue or Protestant martyr.
Instead he presents her as an accomplished young woman with a
fierce personal integrity. The result is a compelling dissection by
a master historian and storyteller of one of history's most
shocking injustices.
