The title totally cracks me up! I wonder why there are so many books about Eleanor lately.

Sounds Goody GOOD!

This sounds so interesting - and I agree that I wouldn't consider Anne Boleyn to be Medieval. And I LOVE the new look of the blog!

Ooh this looks good. I read Lise Hilton's book on Medieval Queens which was okay. All three women, Eleanor, Isabella and Anne will be featured in Scandalous Women.

Blogger ate my comment!

I had said that I covered Eleanor of Aquitaine and Anne Boleyn in ROYAL AFFAIRS as well as NOTORIOUS ROYAL MARRIAGES, though in ROYAL AFFAIRS, Eleanor is more of a bystander -- though she gets two entire chapters in NOTORIOUS ROYAL MARRIAGES devoted to each of her, well, notorious royal marriages. I also cover Isabella in ROYAL AFFAIRS (both her marriage and her extramarital affair), so I omitted her from NOTORIOUS ROYAL MARRIAGES because it would have been essentially the same chapter I'd already written.

I wouldn't consider Anne a "medieval" queen since the Renaissance and humanism were already under way in England in the 1530s, but these strong and courageous women continue to fascinate us centuries later, there's no doubt about it!
