Book Description

Part biography, part cultural history, The Creation of Anne Boleyn is a reconstruction of Boleyn’s life and an illuminating look at her very active afterlife in the popular imagination. With recent novels, movies, and television shows, Anne has been having a twenty-first-century moment, but Bordo shows how many generations of polemicists, biographers, novelists, and filmmakers have imagined and reimagined her: whore, martyr, cautionary tale, proto-“mean girl,” feminist icon, and everything in between. Drawing on scholarship and razor-sharp analysis, Bordo probes the complexities of one of history’s most intriguing women, teasing out what we actually know about Anne Boleyn and what we think we know about her.

  19. Bente Hansen says:

    Anne Bolyen has so much to tell us to day. Despite that she was ment just to be a little forgotten sentence in history – fist used to get her family power, then used by Henry the 8th. Just to end up beheaded.
    She was a very strong woman, who stood up for her rights, women’s rights. Did act as queen for a very short periode but managed to be remembered to day, just look at all the books, websites and informations about her.
    So many people are interested in her footsteps, and they are still big and easy to see.
    Hope to win the book, it would mean so much.
