Summay of Hayley Nolan's Anne Boleyn - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Anne Boleyn's early life is very important to understand her character and motivations. She grew up in the religious climate of the Reformation, and was taught to fight back against the questionable authority of Rome by the activists who started the movement. #2 Anne's French education was responsible for the more radical belief system that would carry her through life, but the impact her first year abroad at the Habsburg Imperial Court had on her is often overlooked. #3 Anne Boleyn's time at the French court was short, but it was there that she learned how to speak French well.
She was also asked to join the court of King Henry VIII's sister Mary Tudor in England, but she declined. #4 Anne Boleyn spent hardly any time serving the new French queen, Mary, as she was busy serving the wife of the notorious womanizer King Francis I. When she moved on to serve the wife of the French king, Francis I, she was extremely sheltered.
