Summary |
In the medieval and Tudor world there was no question in peoples' minds about the order of God's creation - men ruled and women didn't. In this series, historian Helen Castor explores seven queens who challenged male power, the fierce reactions they provoked, and whether the term 'she wolves' was deserved. In this episode, Castor looks at the lives of Isabella of France and Margaret of Anjou and how both women were thrust into a violent and dysfunctional England.
