Description
Catherine de'Medici (1519-89) was wife to one king of France and mother to three more, making her one of history's most influential yet controversial figures. This Routledge biography examines her rise from despised outsider to powerful political force during the Valois dynasty's final reign over France. Often misrepresented by historical novelists and popular culture, Catherine de'Medici's true story has been obscured by centuries of myth and the so-called 'Black Legend' surrounding her life. This comprehensive historical account cuts through popular fiction to reveal her genuine impact on French history, politics, and the Tudor-era European stage. Essential reading for anyone interested in Renaissance history, powerful women in politics, or the Valois dynasty that ruled France from 1328 onwards.

Key Features

Comprehensive historical analysis of Catherine de'Medici's transformation from powerless outsider to influential political force in 16th-century France.

Explores how Catherine de'Medici's decisions and influence shaped the Valois dynasty during its final years ruling France.
