Il professor Lusio racconta: Mary Bolena. L'altra donna del re

In recent years, she has come under the scrutiny of historians and Tudor enthusiasts as "the other Boleyn" or "the other Boleyn," the sister of the infamous Anne Boleyn, Mary Boleyn, who preceded her sister in Henry VIII's bed. Passed down to the centuries both as a "great villain" (I don't think it's necessary to translate the term into current Italian; I think it's already clear enough) and as "the unintelligent sister," "the less interesting sister," "the reckless sister," always and only "the sister," perpetually compared to her younger sister, the more intelligent, the more astute, the more fascinating, the more interesting Anne Boleyn, the one who managed to become Queen of England, while the other Boleyn ended up ruining her reputation with her own hands for her own reckless choice. Yet, at the end of the day, who was the Boleyn who managed to survive the storm that engulfed her family and led Anne Boleyn to the scaffold? It was Mary. Amid myths to be debunked, questions that still haunt historians, this is the story of Mary Boleyn, no longer "the sister of..." or "the lover of...", but the woman she was and who ultimately succeeded in becoming, choosing her own destiny.
