Episode 275 - Feminism's Influence on Portrayals of Catherine Howard with Leigh Wakefield

  • Résumé

  • Welcome to a new episode of "Talking Tudors," where host Natalie Grueninger engages in a riveting conversation with historian Leigh Wakefield. This episode dives deep into how feminist movements have reshaped portrayals of Catherine Howard, one of the six wives of Henry VIII, in popular culture.

    Leigh Wakefield shares her extensive research, exploring how depictions of Catherine Howard have evolved from the early 20th century to today. Discover how modern feminism and the Me Too movement have influenced new interpretations, presenting Catherine as a victim of historical misogyny rather than just a "promiscuous tart."

    Join us as we examine film, stage, and literature representations, evaluating the changing narratives around Catherine Howard and discussing audience reactions to these shifts. This episode uncovers the long-standing stereotypes that have shaped her image and celebrates the new, more nuanced perspectives emerging in the 21st century.
