Summary:
The book challenges traditional narratives about Anne Boleyn, presenting her as a victim of early modern misogyny and political machinations rather than the scheming adulteress often depicted in history. It offers a revisionist perspective, using contemporary sources to argue for a reevaluation of her life and her role in the English Reformation.
Key points:
1. Revisionist History: The book reevaluates Anne Boleyn's image, arguing she was a victim of her time's patriarchal society, not a manipulative seductress.
