It has been suggested that Anne [Boleyn] was seen as 'particularly receptive to female petitioners'. She is known to have assisted her aunt, Katherine Howard, in her attempts to obtain a separation from her husband.

I must say I'm disappointed by Elizabeth Norton's Lives of Tudor Women. I looked up lesbian, homosexuality, same sex... none of those words are in the index. I checked the pages on sex and marriage- not even a passing reference.

Yes, lesbians are LGBT history. But like...lesbians...they're women. So they're a part of women's history too.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not expecting a whole chapter and I appreciate that there's probably next to no sources on Tudor lesbians. But at least say there's no sources. At least acknowledge they exist. Would a sentence be too much to ask?

The Hidden Lives of Tudor Women by Elizabeth Norton

[quotesfrommyreading]

If, at birth, our Tudor Everywoman was a princess named Elizabeth, and at death a queen named Elizabeth, in between she was – among many other people – a daughter named Anne Boleyn, a servant girl-turned-prophetess named Elizabeth Barton, a businesswoman named Katherine Fenkyll, a widow named Cecily Burbage, a rebel named Margaret Cheyne, a heretic named Anne Askew, and an expatriate of advanced years named Jane Dormer. These particular names have lived on in the history books, and they provide major nodes in a network whose 'minor', but no less illustrative, points comprise much of what follows: the poor wool-spinners of East Anglia, the 'witches' of Surrey and the female apprentices of Bristol; the women who taught and those who fostered learning; the women who vowed to remain chaste and the women who made a living from sex; the women who kept their communities morally upstanding and the women who were driven to slander, thievery and murder; the women whose horizons seemed sunlit, and those whose lives ended in despair, in a noose tied by their own hands.

The first gentle movements, when they came, were testament to the fact that a new life had begun. For as far as Tudors were concerned, life did not begin at conception…Life itself was deemed to begin when the soul entered the fully formed foetus, which occurred at 46 days for a boy and 90 days for a girl.

—Elizabeth Norton, The Hidden Lives of Tudor Women: A Social History, p. 1

Lots of folks ask me about the process of putting together books that are chock full of imagery. Though the end result can be a treasure to behold, the journey along the way is often pretty frustrating! I wrote about this a few years ago using the example of one of the artists who is not in my book, The Art of the Occult, and all of the reasons that might be: The Art Of The Occult And The Elusive Rosaleen Norton.

Sir Thomas Boleyn was close to his mother, with Margaret writing a letter to him that passed conduct of her legal case concerning her inheritance over to him. In it, she confirmed that ‘I pray and heartily desire you that you will do for me in everything that you shall do for me after as you think best, I will, on my part, affirm and rate it in as like manner as though it were mine own deed’. Unfortunately no evidence of her education survives, although she was certainly present at Hever during some of her granddaughter’s formative years. Arguably, Sir Thomas Boleyn’s wife, Elizabeth, may have been an even greater influence over her daughter’s education. Elizabeth was, in her youth, referred to as ‘sage’, with one of her half-sisters recalled for her learning. It may well have been she who helped arrange an unusual level of education for Anne.
