Matilda and Eleanor both believed in their right to rule for themselves. Matilda got to the very brink of her own coronation as Queen of England. And when Eleanor's power and autonomy were threatened, she went so far as to lead a rebellion against her own husband. But in practice, it turned out that the sight of a woman pursuing power for herself caused consternation and horror. The fear of the she-wolves had begun.
In the next programme, we meet the queens who inspired that title in literature. One accused of murder, the other of plunging the country into the Wars of the Roses, Isabella and Margaret each fought for power in one of the most brutal periods of English history. |
