<p><strong>A timely celebration of the many attributes our Queen brings to the nation ? fortitude, stoicism, diplomacy, family values, sense of fun and style among them.</strong></p> <p>Queen Elizabeth II ? Britain’s longest-serving monarch, Supreme Governor of the Church of England and the Head of the Commonwealth ? has reigned over us for a record-breaking sixty-seven years. Now in her ninety-fourth year, this timely celebration sheds new light on the myriad attributes and personal qualities she brings to the nation.</p> <p>From fortitude in the face of adversity to standing as the nation’s ambassador all over the world, no one could doubt the work ethic that powers this remarkable woman, even into her nineties. Equally, her love of family ? from her rock of over sixty years’ marriage, Prince Philip, to her great grandchildren ? shines through. But what are the secrets of her success? How does she still approach her day-to-day with such vitality and aplomb, even when culture and society are changing rapidly all around her?</p> <p><strong>The Queen on fame:</strong> When an MP commented that it must be a strain meeting so many strangers all the time, the Queen smiled, ‘It is not as difficult as it might seem. You see, I don’t have to introduce myself. They all seem to know who I am.’</p> <p><strong>The Queen on fashion:</strong> In the late sixties when Mary Quant and the mini skirt came to epitomize all that was fashionable, Princess Anne suggested her mother might also consider shortening her hemline. The Queen was adamant, ‘I am not a film star.’</p> <p><strong>The Queen on family:</strong> As Great Britain’s most famous great grandmother, it is no surprise that the Queen values family life. ‘Marriage gains from the web of family relationships between parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren, cousins, aunts and uncles.’</p> <p>In this book Karen Dolby unpicks the key elements that make the Queen so special to ? and so loved by ? the nation and presents a guide to how you too could put into practice some of Her Majesty’s traits to help overcome adversity, find inner strength and present yourself as wonderfully considered and calm, even when all about you seems in chaos.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

She has known 14 US Presidents including JFK, Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump, and other world leaders like President Mandela and Pope John XXII.

<p>In the literature of our country, however copious, the eye of the curious student may still detect important deficiencies. We possess, for example, many and excellent histories, embracing every period of our domestic annals;ーbiographies, general and particular, which appear to have placed on record the name of every private individual justly entitled to such commemoration;ーand numerous and extensive collections of original letters, state-papers and other historical and antiquarian documents;ーwhilst our comparative penury is remarkable in royal lives, in court histories, and especially in that class which forms the glory of French literature,ーmemoir. To supply in some degree this want, as it affects the person and reign of one of the most illustrious of female and of European sovereigns, is the intention of the work now offered with much diffidence to the public. Its plan comprehends a detailed view of the private life of Elizabeth from the period of her birth; a view of the domestic history of her reign; memoirs of the principal families of the nobility and biographical anecdotes of the celebrated characters who composed her court; besides notices of the manners, opinions and literature of the reign</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>“An original, masterly, and fascinating study [that] offers brilliant new insights into the shaping of the Virgin Queen.”ーAlison Weir, <em>New York Times</em> bestselling author of the Six Tudor Queens series</strong></p> <p>In vivid detail, historian Tracy Borman presents Elizabeth I from a thrilling new angle, focusing on the Virgin Queen not through her relationship with men, but as the product of womenーthe mother she lost so tragically, the female subjects who worshipped her, and the peers and intimates who loved, raised, challenged, and sometimes opposed her.</p> <p>Borman introduces Elizabeth’s bewitching mother, Anne Boleyn, eager to nurture her new child, only to see her taken away and her own life destroyed by damning allegationsーwhich taught Elizabeth never to mix politics and love. Kat Astley, the governess who attended and taught Elizabeth for almost thirty years, invited disaster by encouraging her charge into a dangerous liaison after Henry VIII’s death. Mary Tudorー“Bloody Mary”ーenvied her younger sister’s popularity and threatened to destroy her altogether. And animosity drove Elizabeth and her cousin Mary Queen of Scots into an intense thirty-year rivalry that could end only in death.</p> <p><em>Elizabeth’s Women</em> is an unprecedented account of how the public posture of femininity figured into the English court, the meaning of costume and display, the power of fecundity and flirtation, and how Elizabeth herselfーlong viewed as the embodiment of feminismーshared popular views of female inferiority and scorned and schemed against her underlings’ marriages and pregnancies.</p> <p>Brilliantly researched and elegantly written, <em>Elizabeth’s Women</em> is a unique take on history’s most captivating queen and the dazzling court that surrounded her.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>'Elizabeth Boleyn, so nice to finally meet you!'</strong> ? Claire Martin, author of <em>Heirs of Ambition</em></p> <p><strong>Elizabeth Boleyn has been overlooked for centuries.</strong> She is remembered only as a wife and mother, despite her illustrious court career that started long before her daughters, Mary and Anne, ever caught the king's eye.

Beginning with her family's dramatic flight from Norfolk to London after the Battle of Bosworth, Sophie Bacchus-Waterman charts Elizabeth's life at the early Henrician court, follows her as her family rise to the pinnacle of their power, and ends with her tragic death just a couple of years after two of her children were brutally executed. This is the story of the Boleyn family ? and the dramatic events of Tudor England ? from an entirely new perspective.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
