About this listen

In the England of the 16th century, marked by wars of religion, conspiracies, and external threats, Elizabeth I ascends the throne with an intimate certainty: survival will be her first victory. Between the Tudor court and the European chessboard, she builds a reign based on prudence, political intelligence, and mastery of image, while facing rivals such as Mary, Queen of Scots and the challenge of Philip II. This volume traces the forging of the 'Virgin Queen', her most brilliant decisions and her harshest shadows: propaganda, espionage, the cost of stability, and the weight of a body transformed into the State. A complete portrait of a woman who turned her vulnerability into power and left a decisive mark on the identity of England.
