A new look at the relationship between 2 of Europe's most powerful women Elizabeth I and Catherine de Médicis.
Dr Paranque is an Assistant Professor specialized in early modern and public history.
In sixteenth-century Europe, two women came to hold all the power, against all the odds.
They were Elizabeth I and Catherine de Médicis.
One a Virgin Queen who ruled her kingdom alone, and the other a clandestine leader who used her children to shape the dynasties of Europe, much has been written about these iconic women. But nothing has been said of their complicated relationship: thirty years of friendship, competition and conflict that changed the face of Europe.
