Eleanor Of Aquitaine - Alison Weirová

Eleanor, Duchess of Aquitaine was one of the leading personalities of the Middle Ages and also one of the most controversial. She was beautiful, intelligent and wilful, and in her lifetime there were rumours about her that were not without substance. She had been reared in a relaxed and licentious court where the arts of the troubadours flourished, and was even said to have presided over the fabled Courts of Love. Eleanor married in turn Louis VII of France and Henry II of England, and was the mother of Richard the Lionheart and King John. She lived to be 82, but it was only in old age that she triumphed over the adversities and tragedies of her earlier years and became virtual ruler of England. Eleanor has exerted a fascination over writers and biographers for 800 years, but the prevailing myths and legends that attach to her name still tend to obscure the truth. By careful research, Alison Weir has produced a vivid biography with a fresh and provocative perspective on this extraordinary woman.

Druhorozený princ Jindřich vyrůstá v královských palácích a sní o turnajích a chrabrých skutcích, jimiž by se vyrovnal rytířům z legend o králi Artušovi – a o zlatém věku králů, jenž čeká na jeho staršího bratra. Předčasná smrt prvorozeného Artura z něj však nečekaně udělá krále Anglie. S rostoucí mocí začíná Jindřich svádět niterný boj mezi rozumem a citem, láskou a povinností.

Kateřina Aragonská: Pravá královna - Alison Weirová - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Měli si být oporou a stvrdili to před Bohem. Avšak jen ona na to dbala… Už počasí v anglickém přístavu věstí, že se španělská infantka Catalina bude muset důkladně obrnit proti nevlídnosti Severu. Sňatková politika jí za chotě určila zdejšího prvorozeného prince Artura Tudora, jenže osud s ní má jiné, daleko chmurnější plány. Když neduživý manžel brzy nato zemře, najde v mladé vdově zalíbení mladičký švagr Jindřich. Přestože si ji nakonec odvede k oltáři, není utrpení v životě královny Kateřiny (1485–1536) zdaleka zažehnáno. Žádnému z jejich synů nejsou dopřány ani dva měsíce života, zmar se vrší, léta běží. Temperamentní Jindřich VIII. zoufale toužící po dědici obětuje nejprve vřelost, pak věrnost a posléze soudnost. A tak zatímco dějiny tudorovské Anglie s přičiněním Anny Boleynové spějí k neblaze proslulému rozvodu, jenž otřese zvyklostmi raně novověké Evropy, strachuje se odkvétající katolická královna nejen o přežití v podmínkách určovaných mužskou vůlí či o legitimní nároky své jediné dcery, ale i o spásu vlastní duše… První svazek řady Šest tudorovských královen předkládá dramatickou epopej o vnitřně poctivé panovnici, jejíž svatá trpělivost ostře kontrastuje s činy manžela, prosazujícího své ego přes veškeré překážky světské i duchovní. O prolité krvi nemluvě.

Princezna Alžběta - Alison Weirová

Malá Alžběta, dcera Jindřicha VIII., nejmocnějšího z anglických panovníků, je princezna předurčená k životu na výsluní moci a slávy a lidé se jí klanějí jako králově dědičce. To vše se ale rázem změní, když je její matka Anna Boleynová – Jindřichova velká láska – popravena za údajnou nevěru. Král holčičku vydědí, dá ji prohlásit za nemanželskou a ona je napříště nucena spoléhat jen na vlastní důvtip, aby v temných vírech doby plné intrik a náboženských svárů mezi katolictvím a nově zrozeným protestantismem vůbec přežila. Zvlášť po otcově smrti musí jako sirotek obratně proplouvat dravými proudy bezohledných mocenských bojů u tudorovského dvora. Je svědkem protestantské regentské vlády svého bratra, mladičkého Eduarda VI., i nelítostné katolické obnovy své starší sestry Marie Krvavé, za jejíž vlády se jako ikona protestantské strany na krátký čas dokonce ocitá uvězněna v Toweru, a ač se důsledně distancuje ode všech spiknutí, hrozí jí smrt. Jsou chvíle, kdy bojuje o holý život, a přelstít ty, kdo usilují o její zničení nebo ji chtějí využít pro své vlastní cíle, jí pomůže jen nevšední inteligence a mimořádné vzdělání. Z hloubavé, předčasně vyspělé dívenky, jejíž osud je plný tragických zvratů, se nakonec stává nejslavnější a nejoblíbenější anglická královna. Ale to už je jiný příběh. Čtivý román od populární historičky vypráví příběh Alžběty I., než se stala královnou… Alžběta je líčena jako inteligentní, moudrá, předčasně vyspělá a sympatická postava, která úspěšně přežije všechny úklady a životní zvraty. Příběh se důsledně drží historických skutečností a přesvědčivě zachycuje intimní detaily z jejího života.

Alžběta z Yorku: Poslední bílá růže - Alison Weirová

Alžběta z Yorku byla nejstarší dcerou anglického krále Eduarda IV. Rusovlasá, krásná a dobrosrdečná dívka je miláčkem celé rodiny, v jejím životě však náhle nastane prudký zvrat, když jí zemře otec na vrcholu svých životních sil. Strýc, neblaze proslulý Richard III., využije jeho smrti k uchvácení trůnu a uvězní v Toweru Alžbětiny dva mladší bratry, oprávněné dědice trůnu, kteří pak beze stopy zmizí.Alžběta musí snášet Richardovy námluvy, aby se stala jeho ženou a tím dále potvrdila oprávněnost jeho nároků na trůn. Král jí sice zavraždil bratry, avšak ona má za to, že musí jeho návrh na uzavření manželství přijmout.Alžbětu však zachrání Jindřich Tudor, který se Richardovi postaví v bitvě na Bosworthském poli. Po svém vítězství je prohlášen králem a požádá Alžbětu o ruku, aby se mohla stát první královnou tudorovské rodové linie. Manželství je šťastné a plodné, a nejenže spojí do té doby vzájemně bojující rody Lancasterů a Yorků – mající ve znaku červenou a bílou růži –, ale vzejdou z něj i čtyři potomci, kteří se dožijí dospělého věku, mezi nimi i Jindřich VIII.

This commemorative edition includes an epilogue reflecting upon Her Majesty’s Platinum Jubilee, her passing and her funeral. Sensational – Kirsty Young, The Platinum Pageant (BBC)With fascinating revelations from those who knew her best and special access to unseen royal papers granted by Elizabeth II herself, author and royal expert Robert Hardman explores the full, astonishing life of our longest reigning monarch in this authoritative yet intimate biography.The book also charts the way in which the Queen raised the future King Charles III as both son and heir. Elizabeth was not born to be queen, being third in line to the throne. Yet from her accession as a young mother of two in 1952 to the age of Covid-19, she proved an astute and quietly determined figure, leading her family and her people through more than seventy years of unprecedented social change.She faced constitutional crises, confronted threats against her life, unified the Commonwealth, saw fifteen British prime ministers come and go, charmed world leaders, and steered her family through a lifetime in the public eye. Her Platinum Jubilee was celebrated in June 2022 and her death mourned months later, both events a reminder of the huge impact she had made. Queen of Our Times is a must-read study of dynastic survival and renewal, spanning abdication, war, romance, danger and tragedy.It is a compelling portrait of a leader whose legacy of steadfast service lives on.

The Queen of Blood - Sarah Beth Durst

From the bestselling author of The Spellshop comes the award-winning first book in an adult epic fantasy series of malevolent nature spirits, a young woman’s uncertain destiny, a deadly competition, and family found along the way—available in trade paperback for the first time.Everything has a spirit: the willow tree with leaves that kiss the pond, the stream that feeds the river, the wind that exhales fresh snow . . .Only those spirits want to kill you.It’s the first lesson that every Renthian learns.What is a queen?In Renthia, the queen is the one human with enough magical power to prevent the spirits from destroying every man, woman, and child. For the very spirits the humans rely on to live—wood, earth, water, air, fire, and ice—at the same time possess an instinctual drive to exterminate them. The queen is chosen for her ability to control the spirits, but she is also mortal, so to ensure the humans’ survival, potential heirs to the queen’s role are rigorously trained to take her place. And there is concern that Fara, the current queen, is weakening.What is a champion?With the stakes literally life and death, competition at the academy is fierce and demanding. Years ago, spirits slaughtered almost everyone in her village until young Daleina was able to drive them off with power she didn’t know she possessed. Now struggling to equal the magical strength of her fellow trainees at the academy, she comes under the tutelage of a disgraced champion, Ven, who has spent his exile secretly fighting against the growing number of spirit attacks, and the mysterious healer Hamon.What is a family?Joining forces, they embark on a treacherous quest to find the source of the spirits’ restlessness—a journey that will test their courage and trust, and force them to stand together against both enemies and friends to save their land…before it’s bathed in blood.
