【BBC英国的那些女王们】伊莎贝拉与玛格丽特7

1308年,年仅12岁的法兰西公主伊莎贝拉嫁给了英格兰国王,成为英格兰王后。一个世纪之后,另一个年轻的法兰西女孩儿,安茹的玛格丽特,步了她的后尘。两个女人都在不知情的情况下,被卷入了混乱暴力的英格兰战争;这两个女人,都在不得已的情况下,走出幕后,力挽狂澜,控制了最终的王权。伊莎贝拉被指控谋杀,而玛格丽特的野心足以摧毁一切。其实,她们的坚持已见和毫不动摇,这些素质在男人身上就会显得正常无比,而如果是女人表现出这些素质,就会被认为是不近人情,甚至是荒谬变态的!

They were here at York Castle when they heard the dramatic news that Gaveston had been starved out of the fortress at Scarborough and was now a prisoner of the lords. Edward was consumed with anxiety about the fate of his favourite. Isabella's reaction isn't recorded, but we might assume it was rather different.
Isabella thought Gaveston's removal might allow her to take her rightful place at her husband's side. But it was becoming clear that only death would separate Gaveston from Edward once and for all. Isabella was still here at York with her husband when word came of a bloody drama that had played itself out 100 miles further south.
