Margaret of Valois: Survival at Court

The always-spirited Dr. Emily Lalande is back — and this time, we’re spilling the tea (and maybe a little bathwater) on Margaret of Valois, daughter of Henry II of France and Catherine de’ Medici. From royal politics to scandalous escapades — including one “spa day” that wasn’t quite what her brother the king had in mind — Margaret’s life was anything but ordinary. Get ready for a story as bold and unpredictable as the princess herself.Margaret's MemoirRubens coronation portrait of Marie de Medici--Don't miss out on our upcoming course called Forging a Queen!
