For centuries, Anne Boleyn has been cast, in certain quarters, as a power hungry manipulator who schemed to become queen of England. The story, when one digs a bit deeper, is far more complex. In truth, Anne Boleyn was a queen who used her power and influence to shape the English reformation and transform Europe’s political and religious landscape. To discuss all of this with me, I am pleased to welcome onto the podcast for the first time, Martha Tatarnic whose upcoming book, Anne Boleyn, Reputation, Revolution, Religion and the Queen who Changed History, acts as the basis for our conversation, so stay tuned to find out how Martha’s fresh takes challenge assumptions made about one of the most infamous women in history.
