Description
Edward II His Sexuality and Relationships by Kathryn Warner is a fresh perspective on one of England's most fascinating monarchs. This book challenges common perceptions of Edward II, exploring his relationships with men and women in the context of medieval attitudes towards sexuality. A detailed examination of Edward II's marriage to Isabella, daughter of the French king, reveals a happy and mutually supportive partnership that has often been overlooked by modern historians. The author also investigates the complex associations between Edward II and Roger Mortimer, as well as his own family relationships, including an incestuous connection with his niece. By shedding new light on these aspects of Edward II's life, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the king's personality and character, moving beyond stereotypes to reveal a more complex individual.
