But the cataclysmic love triangle between Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn gets all the airtime, while wives three to six are an afterthought.

Key Points: 
  • But the cataclysmic love triangle between Catherine of Aragon and Anne Boleyn gets all the airtime, while wives three to six are an afterthought.
  • Namely, the discovery of Henry’s notes in a book authored by his wife.

The bookish queen

    • When he set off for his final, futile war in France in 1544, he made her regent in his absence.
    • Part of the appeal, it seems, was her bookish piety.
    • Parr was the first English queen to publish a book and the first English woman to publish under her own name.
    • Queen Katherine ordered a few luxury copies of Psalmes or Prayers printed on vellum, with delicate hand colouring.

What Henry VIII’s notes reveal

    • The passages Henry marked are a telling glimpse of the extent – and the limits – of his self awareness.
    • His illness and other troubles are much on his mind: he marks prayers to “take away thy plagues … turn away thine anger”.
    • Unlike many other murderous narcissists, Henry VIII did know he was a sinner who needed forgiveness.
    • In 1546, the last summer of Henry VIII’s life, she was suspected – on good grounds – of nurturing a nest of religious radicals at court.
    • Henry allowed himself to be persuaded that all her pious talk was actually an attempt to allure him into heresy.
