Queen Anne Boleyn

Throughout this course, we learned that women’s studies originated as a concern at the time that “women and men noticed the absence, misrepresentation, and trivialization of women [in addition to] the ways women were systematically excluded from many positions of power and authority” (Shaw, Lee 1). In the past, men had more privileges than women. Women have battled for centuries against certain patterns of inadequacy that all women experience. Every culture and customs has divergent female

Anne's was a life filled with significant events. The trial and home confinement of her father was the most significant of her childhood. The education she received from her father at this time would prepare her well for her own trial. She had a deep confidence in

In the world today, women have a say in what they want to do and things that they desire to do. Back in the day, before the 1800’s, women had to be submissive to their male counterparts and do according to what was required of them. In the end, this led to the demeaning of the woman and the concept that women were inferior to men. Even though this concept and perception changed, there have been some countries and regions of the world that have not yet recognized the equality that women deserve. Such areas do not allow women to vote, attend school, have a say in the community, and the women are at the mercy of their husbands, fathers or male superiors (Hartmann, Susan M).

In Anne’s adolescent years, she reached the minimum age of “Fille D’Honneur” and moved into the court of Archduchess Margaret Fraser in France where her love of fashion was sparked. After serving on the Archduchess’ court, Anne went on to be in the court of Mary Tudor, sister of King Henry VIII and wife of King Louis XII. Because of Anne’s high profile position, she had to keep with the latest French fashion trends such as the French hood and dress styles. When Mary Tudor returned to England, Anne decided to stay in France for the next six to seven years and continued her education in the ways of the French court. The young Anne grew into a delightfully charming young lady, blessed with all the social graces a courtier at that time could possibly hope for. During that time King Henry came to France to meet the French King, Francis I, and it was here that King Henry most likely first met Anne.

In the sixteenth century the role of women in society was very limited. Women were generally stereotyped as housewives and mothers. They were to be married, living their life providing for her husband and children. The patriarchal values of the Elizabethan times regarded women as the weaker sex.’ Men were considered the dominant gender and were treated with the utmost respect by females. Women were mainly restricted within the confines of their homes and were not allowed to go school or to university, but they could be educated at home by private tutors. Men were said to be the ones to provide for their families financially. Women were often seen as not intelligent. Property could not be titled in the name of a female within the family. Legally everything the female had belonged to her husband. Poor and middle class wives were kept very busy but rich women were not idle either. In a big house they had to organize and supervise the servants.

From a young age, Anne was educated by her father. He insisted that all his children be well educated which lead to her having a higher education than most girls did at the time. His knowledge was not the only thing he passed on to Ann however. As cleric who often battled with those in higher ranking positions and spent two years in jail because of it, he was extremely bold. It is this same boldness that lead Anne into many difficult situations throughout her lifetime.("Anne Hutchinson - Wikipedia")

Patriarchal culture has dominated society throughout history. Males have control in many aspects of life and women have continued to fight for equal rights in society. There are many ways women have contributed to the fight for equality; some more physical and other less abrasive. Education and Literature gave the voice to a few women in a male-centered world. Poet Lady Mary Wroth captures the injustices experienced by women in the feminine narrative of Sonnet 9 from her collection of sonnets, songs, and lyrics entitled 'Pamphilia to Amphilantus. In this poem, Wroth explores the thoughts of elite women in the 1700s and uses aspects of her own cultural and historic circumstance to convey the theme of a religious patriarchal society.

Anne wasn’t afraid to be different and stand up for something she believed in. At the time it may have just seemed like a minuscule thing, just some women saying something about her religious beliefs. But who would have known that something so small would have blossomed into a monumental thing. What if Anne Hutchinson didn’t stand up for her beliefs? Who knows where religion would be today in the 21st century. Her achievements are seen even today if everyday life. She contributed so much to religion overall. Today, we don’t have to worry about hiding our beliefs. We don’t have to worry about being arrested or going to trial because what we think isn’t the popular opinion. Because of Anne Hutchinson the world is a better place. Even though it may seem like she lost the battle, by being imprisoned in her home and being unfairly treated by her piers she actually won. She stood up for what she believed and took the consequences for her actions. And thanks to her we now have religious freedom that she worked so hard to get. Thanks to Anne women now have a role model to look up to, someone who was so brave for her time. Women can look up to Anne Hutchinson and think that they can be brave too. That they can do anything they put their minds too even if it might be something that has never been done before.

Her childhood was spent as the lady-in-waiting for the Archduchess Margaret before going to the French court and becoming the lady-in-waiting for Queen Mary, Henry VIII 's younger sister.

Her family and her are showered in gifts and titles.

Anne made many enemies at court due to her behaviour and the way she was given preferential treatment even

Women withstood a multitude of limitations in the medieval era. Due to the political, social, and religious restrictions women encountered, historians neglected to realize that they demonstrated agency. The female experience is something that has been overlooked until recently. Unfortunately, without the knowledge of how women found ways to exert their power, we are experiencing a deficit of knowledge in this period. Through the close examination of the primary sources: The Gospel of Mary, Dhouda’s Liber Manualis, and Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, the creative means of female force are displayed.

One of the reasons it can be said that Anne Boleyn was charged with adultery was the miscarriage she suffered in January 1536 where it was said the baby was a male child and around three and a half months old (Bernard, 2010 p131). The fact that the baby was seen to be a boy in the court rumours though there was no way to tell in the Tudor period when the miscarriage was that early, had a devastating effect on Henry VIII as it was said he claimed ‘I see that God will not give me male children’ (Queens of England Podcast, 2017) which shows how he had in a way almost given up on Anne giving him a male heir to succeed his dynasty. If he claimed she committed adultery it was a way for him to get rid of her so he could move on to the next object

In the Victorian era, the status of women in society was extremely oppressive and, by modern standards, atrocious. Women had few rights, in or outside of the home. Married women in this period relied on men almost completely as they had few rights or independence. With this mindset in focus,
