Anne Boleyn

Did marrying Anne, solve any of Henry’s problems?

Anne Boleyn is an interesting character. People always felt strongly about her, they either loved her or they despised her with a passion! Here is quick look at her early years- how do you think she compared to Catherine of Aragon?

• Anne was one of three children, Mary was her eldest sister. She was sweet and gentle but none too bright! Anne and her younger brother George were different. They were intelligent and wanted to do well. Their father recognised this and did his best to give them the best possible start in life.

• George went to Oxford University; he was able to speak Latin and French and was a poet and translator.

• Anne was educated in the house of Arch Duchess Margaret in France. Margaret was an impressive woman whose nickname was “Most dreaded lady”. She was fluent in many languages and wrote fine poetry in both Latin and French. She was also a very clever politician.

• Before returning to England Anne spent some time in the court of the French King, Francis, a man who was very kind to all women apart from his own wife! Anne loved the French court and by this time she spoke French fluently. At this time, she also polished her musical skills, becoming a fine singer and dancer.

• Years after she had left the French she was still well remembered. A man called Lancelot de Carles wrote “…she was beautiful and had an elegant figure and eyes that were even more attractive.” Anne’s eyes were large and dark and she used them with skill, using them as “…messengers to carry the secret witness of her heart.” Lancelot was also to write “…such was their power, that many men were hers to command”.

• In 1521 Anne returned to England.

• By early New Year of 1522 she was working as one of Queen Catherine’s ladies in waiting- she was to make quite an impression!

    Silver:
    Anne is a intelligent woman. She wrote poetry, and she was pretty famous, I would say. Everyone missed her in France, they loved her, and her personality. Anne was confident, she was brave and she had the qualities of the 16th century woman. She had a absolutely crazy fire temper that she never wanted, and never did control. Anne’s eyes were sparkling and expressive. Anne caught the king’s eye (Henry VII) in 1525. He wrote love letters for Anne Boleyn.

    Gold:
    Anne was more intelligent then her sister, although people have said that Mary is more attractive, the sisters already moved in different circles. Mary went out of her way to marry a man for love, but he wasn’t in the royal families. Mary would make lots of people like her, but on Anne’s side, people loved her for her personality, sometimes even because the same reason of Mary, because of how she would look. No one forgot about Anne while she was going around places like France. Mary was very less intelligent, and she was also very mad crazy about her little sister Anne. Her sister, Anne was very much more ambitious then her sister.
