Episode 339 - The Life of Margaret of Austria: Queen, Princess & Regent with Dr Natalie Donnell | Talking Tudors In this episode of Talking Tudors, host Natalie Grueninger speaks with historian Dr Natalie Donnell about the life and career of Margaret of Austria. Born in Burgundy and raised at several European courts, Margaret was the long-serving regent of the Netherlands. The conversation covers Margaret’s education under powerful women, her role raising and supporting Charles V, her diplomatic success in the 1529 'Ladies' Peace', her patronage of the arts, and her legacy as a capable and influential female ruler until her death in 1530.

Massive thank you to @drowenemmerson.bsky.social and @onthetudortrail.bsky.social for another brilliant online event 'Rethinking Anne Boleyn'. Even after more than 15 years of research on Anne there are lots of kernels of research that you surprise me with!

Thank you to both of you ❤️
