Biografisk notat
David Loades is one of the leading historians of Tudor England and of the Tudor monarchy. He is the author of the definitive biography of Elizabeth's half-sister, The Reign of Mary Tudor (1991), and of Henry VIII and his Queens (1994). He is Honarary Professor at the University of Sheffield.'Everything a scholarly biography should be, and a good read too'.
Elizabeth I, who reigned over Shakespeare's England and defeated the Spanish Armada, is familiar both from her portraits and as Gloriana, the Virgin Queen. Yet the reality of her character and her personal attitudes are harder to detect behind the public mask. Elizabeth I, a major biography by a leading Tudor expert to mark the 400th anniversary of her death in 1603, looks in detail behind the public life at the private woman. It treats at length her early years and examines her actions and policies as queen. David Loades's biography brings out her remarkable talents and unique achievements.
