A proposito di questo titolo

In the final years of Henry VIII’s reign, even conversation could be dangerous. Katharine Parr was not simply a dutiful queen consort. She was highly educated, deeply interested in theology, and unusually willing to debate religion with the king. At first, Henry encouraged these exchanges. He enjoyed having a companion who could follow his arguments and respond thoughtfully. By 1546, however, those same conversations were being reported very differently. An arrest warrant was prepared. Bishops took notice. Courtiers repeated her words. Katharine found herself in the same position that had destroyed others before her. This video explores: Why Katharine felt secure enough to debate theology with Henry How court politics turned her speech into a risk What she understood about Henry’s need for control at the crucial moment And how a carefully chosen conversation stopped the arrest from going forward This is not a story about luck or silence. It is about timing, perception, and knowing when the safest move was to change the way the story was being told. 📌Join my newsletter for exclusive Tudor news and updates: https://www.englandcast.com/newsletter Learn more about your ad choices.
