Anne Boleyn in Tudor
annie. Anne Boleyn was born in 1501 by Thomas Boleyn. Thomas Boleyn, first Earl of Wiltshire and Elizabeth. Daughter of Mrs. Howard.
At a very young age, Anne showed a clever mind. While other girls were still playing games, she began to realize that to be noticeable, she had to be better and better than other children. This is a complete inheritance of her father Thomas's competitive character, so she is deeply loved and carefully cultivated by her father. Her thirst for learning made her different from most aristocratic girls, eager to learn all the knowledge she could access, and her ability to learn often surprised the people around her.
Her father, Thomas, was born into a wealthy family and had already made a difference in the army by the age of 20. He was studious, well-read, intelligent and ambitious, and soon gained high office in the court.
Thomas has a high talent for languages and is proficient in foreign languages. This family-specific talent for language was also perfectly inherited by Anne Boleyn, which made her maintain a great desire and enthusiasm for learning. Because of his talent in foreign languages and diplomacy, Thomas was sent to Belgium by Henry VIII, where he met the daughter of the Holy Roman Emperor at the time and one of the most powerful women in Europe, Princess Margaret. Thomas's erudition was deeply loved by Princess Margaret.
At that time, Thomas already had 3 children, and Princess Margaret then sent Anne to her court to receive court education. Because of her studiousness, she quickly mastered court etiquette and French, which was appreciated by Margaret. When she appeared at the French court as the Queen's maid, her level of French was also incredible to those present. annie. Boleyn spoke like a French woman, and her knowledge and insights about geography, history, and politics were often impressive.
At that time, Anne was also fundamentally different from other French maids. The aristocratic girls were largely focused on reading the Bible, attending court balls for entertainment, and learning to make handicrafts. And she was very knowledgeable, she talked about the fun, often laughing out loud and her eyes shining. Of course, Anne. Boleyn was not tired of the affairs and etiquette that court women must meet, but instead obeyed these tedious etiquettes himself, maintaining his elegant and appropriate conversation and eye-catching temperament. Anne maintained close ties with the royal family and was well educated and artistically educated.
When Anne returned to England, she became not only a beautiful and elegant woman, but also as erudite and fashionable as her father. At a court ball, she talked with everyone, and her cheerful laughter attracted the attention of King Henry VIII. Yet the clever Anne also noticed that the king's vision had been following herself. The crowd gathered around her, listening to her tell interesting stories about the French court, deliberately not looking at the king.
A few years earlier, Henry VIII had been invited to pass by Boleyn Manor to entertain the king, whom her father regarded as a family honor. At this time, Henry VIII was in his prime, with a legitimate Spanish wife, Queen Catherine, and countless mistresses, but he had no children under his knees and no heirs became a worry in Henry's heart.
Many aristocrats at that time were eager to let their daughters rely on Henry VIII and then realize their political ambitions and interests. annie. Boleyn's father was no exception, coveting the supreme position of wealth. This visit of the king made Thomas have high hopes for Anne Boleyn, hoping to be favored by the king to serve and improve the status of the family. But Henry VIII had a crush on Anne Boleyn's gentle sister, Mary. Boleyn, and this also made Mary the mistress of Henry VIII, giving birth to an illegitimate child.
No one expected that at this moment, Anne at the ball would attract the king's idea, and Henry VIII found that the little girl who had missed it had now completely transformed into a fashionably dressed, funny, beautiful and elegant girl. Anne cleverly avoids the eyes of Henry VIII, who can't help but become infatuated with Anne.
Queen Catherine, who had long been accustomed to Henry's temperament, underestimated the maid Anne Boleyn. annie. Boleyn not only has outstanding beauty, but also has something more dangerous than beauty and ambition. Unbeknownst to Queen Catherine, she was not spying on Henry, the king, but her position as queen.
After Henry was hungry and thirsty for himself, Anne wanted to indulge, pretended to be pure love, and refused to sleep with Henry while seducing with beauty, wanting to meet and refuse. Henry was unable to give up, and Catherine was unable to have children, so he decided to break with the Church of Rome and divorce catherine.
annie. The plight of Boleyn's sister Mary Boleyn told Anne that as a mistress, even if she gave birth to a son, she would not be recognized. Her ambitions told her that she could not follow in her sister's footsteps and become another mistress of the king. In order to achieve her goal of becoming queen, she had to think of ways for Henry VIII to end his marriage to his current wife.
Pope Clement VII refused to abolish Catherine's empressship. Henry VIII, in order to get Anne Boleyn, did not hesitate to offend the Church and the ministers, decided to separate England from the Catholic Church, and became the bishop of the Protestant Church of England, leaving the Church directly under his own administration.
The Boleyn family had become infamous for pushing their two daughters to the king's side. Mary Boleyn was also expelled from the court by Henry and she had to ask Thomas. Cromwell interceded and asked the king, his father, uncle and brother for help. However, the former king's lover and the men of her own family ignored her, and in the end Queen Anne gave Mary some money to help her through the difficult situation. This was also Anne's last closeness to her sister, and she did not take Mary back to the court.
Having such a ruthless and unrighteous mother-in-law, the experience of being a mistress abandoned by the king made Mary. Boleyn's reputation was discredited, and she chose to live a quiet life with her husband, who was not of high status but single-mindedly loved her, to leave the bloody Tudor court and live a quiet life.
After marriage, Anne became one of the most powerful women in England. Father Thomas, uncle, brother all sought positions. Shortly after the marriage, Anne gave birth to her first child, a girl named Elizabeth, which is also the famous Queen Elizabeth I in world history.
The failure to give birth to a son deeply disappointed Henry VIII.
Henry VIII's dethronement of Queen Catherine offended the Church and caused many resentments, which also brought great pressure to his relationship with Anne and her relationship with her family.
Take Thomas. A group of nobles led by Cromwell began to spread rumors about the queen. Cromwell accused Anne. Boleyn is suspected of manipulating witchcraft and betraying the king to steal his lover. The king began to have doubts about this beautiful wife, and at this time, Anne. Due to the tension between Boleyn and Henry, the boy who was about to be born also happened to die in the womb.
Faced with these difficulties, Henry VIII was extremely impatient and lost patience and pampering for her. He turned his head and fell in love with Anne's maid, Jane. Seymour, it seems like a merciless reincarnation, and the bloody storm is coming.
annie. Boleyn, once desperate for power and status, Anne's life was like a flash in the pan, blooming beautifully, and falling too quickly. In response to that sentence, the companion was like a companion tiger, and her brilliance was finally broken in the cruelty and indifference of Henry VIII. Henry VIII, in order to get rid of her, actually sentenced her to death for adultery, his brother was also sentenced to death, and the family wealth was confiscated, but Thomas calculated everything, and lost his daughter and money. How passionately Henry pursued it at the beginning, how ruthless he was now abandoned. From Catherine, to Annie, to the next Jane... Qianbu married 6 queens...
