Retha Warnicke's fascinating and controversial reinterpretation focuses instead on the sexual intrigues and family politics pervading the court, offering a new explanation of Anne's fall. The picture which emerges - placing Anne's life in the context of social and religious values, and superstitions about witches and the birth of deformed children - changes our perception of her role within the court, and suggests that her execution (occurring only four months after a miscarriage) was the tragic consequence of Henry's profound concern about the continuation of the Tudor dynasty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51928661295392,"sku":"NEW0521406773","price":14.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-rise-and-fall-of-anne-boleyn-family-politics-at-the-court-of-henry-viii-canto-0521406773","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
