Misjudged Monarch: Mary I of England

In this episode of the Tudors Dynasty podcast, I joined Rebecca Larson to discuss Mary I, her memory, and so much more! As Rebecca notes: Whenever I have the opportunity to debunk myths or bring to light the real history I am in my happy place. Dr Johanna Strong joined me to look at Mary I in a way that we don’t always see her – she was so much more than her “Bloody Mary” moniker! Today we discuss some of the injustices against her, her part in John Foxe’s Act and Monuments, the role of the queen in chess, Mary’s relationship with Kateryn Parr, and so much more!

You can listen to the episode on the Tudors Dynasty website or wherever you get your podcasts.
