Dr Estelle Paranque is Lecturer in Early Modern History at New College of the Humanities at Northeastern, and an Honorary Research Fellow within the Centre for the Study of the Renaissance at the University of Warwick. She is the author of Elizabeth I of England Through Valois Eyes: Power, Representation, and Diplomacy in the Reign of the Queen, 1558-1588 (Palgrave Macmillan, 2018) and has published several essays on Elizabeth I, French monarchs, and other European queens.
I had the privilege to speak with historian Dr Estelle Paranque on the subject, by the way, her favorite subject, and we discussed everything from her relationship with Robert Dudley, her similarities to Anne Boleyn, and yes, I found a way to discuss Thomas Seymour - because, let’s be honest, you can’t talk about Elizabeth’s early years without discussing Thomas.

To the two bad decisions of Elizabeth that Estelle mentioned, I will add a third: the horrible treatment of the men who fought for the English Navy after the Armada's defeat. Unjustifiable.
Great info!!!! Thank you Dr. Paranque. I also share your admiration for Elizabeth I💗💖💕💞💓
I agree with Estelle, I’ve always found it strange Henry VIII did not marry off his daughters. It would’ve strengthened England’s position on the world stage & he was so worried about the future of the dynasty. Marrying them off & them producing children would’ve given the dynasty more options when Henry’s heirs die.
I always thought the reason Henry VIII didn’t marry off his daughters was to keep from creating a king who might invade. Edward was still a child. Many in Europe considered Mary legitimate. Henry was always worried about invasion from France or Spain. He was excommunicated wasn’t he, which would increase the risk?
Madly in love with this chapter, I always knew that Elizabeth learned a lot from Mary, but never imagined that Elizabeth was in fact present in Mary speeches.
I would like to know more about Mary I, since there is never anything about her,
but even more about Mary relationship with his sister.
PLEASE.
Lots of academic works have focused on Mary I. I recommend
The Birth of a Queen: Essays on the Quincentenary of Mary I
you'll love it :) and it's a good start to know more about Mary.
Elizabeth should be remembered for being master at creating an influential image. Both in portraits and in writing. She understood the power of communication.
We all give Henry the 8th a hard time, and rightfully so. But the man most definatley had sever brain damage. He also lived in crippling pain with no painkillers. As they say.... walk a mile in my shoes & then you'll know who I am. Try living with brain damage & chronic pain with no medication. Then get back to me.
Time to listen to a lovely podcast, sleep with good words.
Loved this Podcast! Estelle Paranque is one of my favorite historians❤️
Thank you so much! Very kind!
Estelle Paranque What book would you recommend on Mary Queen of Scots? I would like to know more about her. I like writes that write more about the facts
@@beachygal6443 I'd recommend Mary Queen of Scots: A study in failure, Jenny Wormald. Also Antonia Fraser, Mary Queen of Scots. I might also write a short one on this queen to bring to life all her facets. I hope this helps :)
Estelle Paranque thank you! I really appreciate it! Will check them out!:)
Estelle Paranque oh and I just realized I have the one from Antonio Fraser! Lol but I appreciate your help
Estelle was great. Very fun to listen to!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The dynamics between Elizabeth and her council can't be reduced to 'Burghley and Walsingham were so devoted'. Both men had more extreme protestant agendas than Elizabeth and there was permanent tension as to who was stirring the ship. This was a 16th century context. Women in power were an anomaly. Even to Burghley and Walsingham. the competition for actual power is never more obvious than round the death warrant for he execution of Mary Stuart. Elizabeth wanted to keep the warrant (we will never know for what reasons), Burghley and Walsingham wanted it despatched as soon as signed.There was a secret council held behind the queen's back were it was decided to dispatch the warrant.The men won. The warrant was sent to Fotheringhay
There has been much debate about Elizabeth's signing of the death warrant. In my view, signing the warrant was probably done to appease the radical Protestant contingent who were looking for any opportunity to be rid of Mary, but Elizabeth knew it would rouse Catholic Europe against her and England. There were many cons to executing Mary and she well understood the consequences. No question Elizabeth was pressured by her privy council to sign yet she hesitated to proceed with the execution. She didn't want Mary executed until she gave the final order. Some say, she was feigning reluctance as a 'demonstration' of tolerance when in truth she really wanted Mary gone forthwith. The opinions seem balanced either way. I guess we'll never know until concrete evidence is discovered.
Didn’t they literally trick Elizabeth by lying that the Armada was on it’s way? I heard that’s how they finally got it thru…
@@SKILLIUSCAESAR yes, Burghley had rumours circulating about ships having reached a spot in the south coast, I think it was Cornwall, and invaders having disembarked
Great interview 🙌🏻
I love this
I’m bored. She’s hard to listen too.
I didn't care for the speaker..
I really wanted to hear this, but had to turn it off. Paranque's vocal fry drove me insane. Why must so many young women talk like the Kardashians? It is impossible to take someone seriously who is speaking in vocal fry.
Oh I know! I can barely stand my own voice but it's a shame that it is putting you off that much. Maybe you'll prefer reading my books? :) (funny enough I have never listened to the Kardashians in my life ha!)
Have a good day!
