Tudors

The Tudors were an unforgettable dynasty who wielded absolute power during a remarkably turbulent time in English history. Each ruler's survival required a fierce struggle to maintain control - often against incredible odds.

From Henry VII, England's last king to win the crown in battle, and the tyrannical Henry VIII with his succession of wives, to the fiercely Catholic 'Bloody Mary', and her sister, Elizabeth, the 'Virgin Queen', Jane Bingham examines just how fairly history has treated these Tudor rulers.

Both as politicians and as individuals, it is no wonder these larger-than-life monarchs still capture our imaginations today.

Tudorii au fost o dinastie de neuitat care a detinut puterea absoluta intr-un timp remarcabil de turbulent din istoria engleza. Supravietuirea fiecarui conducator a necesitat o lupta acerba pentru a mentine controlul - adesea impotriva ciudatelor incredibile. De la Henric al VII-lea, ultimul rege al Angliei care a castigat coroana in lupta, si tiranicul Henric al VIII-lea cu succesiunea sa de sotii, pana la acerba catolica „Bloody Mary”, si sora ei, Elizabeth, „Regina Fecioara”, Jane Bingham examineaza cat de corect a tratat istoria acesti conducatori Tudor. Atat ca politicieni, cat si ca indivizi, nu este de mirare ca acesti monarhi mai mari decat viata ne surprind astazi imaginatia.
