Wicked women of Tudor Englandqueens, aristocrats, commoners /[electronic resource] :Retha M. Warnicke. - New York, NY :Palgrave Macmillan,2012. - 1 online resource. - Queenship and power series.

Introduction -- Queen Anne Boleyn -- Queen: Katherine Howard -- Anne Seymour, Duchess of Somerset -- Lettice, Countess of Essex and Leicester, 1543-1634 -- Jane More -- Alice More -- Conclusion.

This fascinating and occasionally salacious historical study delves into the lives of six Tudor women celebrated for their reputed wickedness. Collected here are illuminating accounts of Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard, the two consorts of Henry VIII who were executed for adultery; Anne Seymour, duchess of Somerset, and Lettice Dudley, countess of Essex and Leicester, two defamed noblewomen; and Jane and Alice More, the two wives of Sir Thomas More who were charged with contrariness and shrewishness. In the process, author Retha M. Warnicke rescues these women from historical misrepresentations and helps us to rediscover the complex world of Tudor society.
