  • Summary

  • Elizabeth Tudor, Queen Elizabeth I of England, is perhaps one of the most famous monarchs in all of history. She reigned for forty-five years during a time of tumultuous religious and political upheaval, survived several assassination attempts, and famously addressed her army with the proclamation that she had the ‘heart and stomach of a king’. 

    But in spite of her many accomplishments, even in spite of famously  — or infamously — ordering the death of her cousin Mary, Queen of Scots, Elizabeth I is primarily known for one particular thing: her virginity. 


    Please note - this episode features mild references to sexuality.

    Error - I misspoke in this recording and referred to Lettice Knollys' husband as Robert Devereaux, when it should have been Robert Dudley. The error has been corrected in the transcript available here .
