I'd like to see a biography of Anne of Cleves, written by a German. It might offer some new perspectives and a rational alternative to the usual picture of her as a cabbage-eating clodhopper from the back of beyond. Currently, German Amazon offers no options, alas. Also, I'd welcome biographies of:<BR/><BR/>-Joan of Navarre (also a victim of the witchcraft slander)<BR/>-Anne of Bohemia (mother reputed to bend iron bars with her bare hands)<BR/>-Philippa of Hainault (as Regent of England, possibly a role model for Catherine of Aragon)<BR/><BR/>Perhaps others have other suggestions...?Foosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02200694434095248343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16981893.post-50640341947748099382008-08-19T17:41:00.000-05:002008-08-19T17:41:00.000-05:00More recently, there is a collective biographical ...More recently, there is a collective biographical study of the various queens of the 15th century that includes Elizabeth of York and her mother, Elizabeth Woodville (Wydville).

Like so many of these books though, I own it but I haven't read it, so I can't comment on it.
