Margaret of York's legacy is often overshadowed by that of her more famous brothers; Edward IV, Richard III, and even George, Duke of Clarence. But from starting merely as a royal bride intended to ally Burgundy and England, she would go on to be the most impressive Duchess of Burgundy, and its most worthy political tool. She would guide her step-daughter through running her lands, protect Burgundy against France, and preserve enough that Belgium and the Netherlands would one day exist. But for the Tudor dynasty, especially Henry VII, she was a persistent thorn in the side as she helped not one, but two Yorkist pretenders to the throne...

Thank you for watching! 😊 Do you think Margaret of York would have been a good queen? And what are your thoughts on her attempts to remove Henry VII?

@lfgifu296 Год назад

Well… Henry VII was a forgiving king, and though I find her a formidable Lady, I think her attempts to put a clear fake York on the throne were rather meaningless- were it to put her family back on the throne I’d get it, but she truly just wanted Henry out haha.

@lfgifu296 Год назад

But as to the first question, yes, I believe she would have been a good Queen- maybe a little too ruthless, but nevertheless strong-.

@MyrnaMinkoff-yy4qd Год назад

@@lfgifu296 Henry VII was forgiving? I've never heard that. Just a few odd facts if Perkin Warbeck was indeed a Dutch peasant. He spoke perfect English, no accent, as well as several other languages as well as being able to read and write different languages. He was very well educated for the son of a boatman. When he was in Holland he had to be sent to a special ‘English school’ to learn Dutch. Odd for a native Dutch speaker. The King of Scotland married him to a member of his family. He looked almost identical to Edward IV and was very tall. Was said ‘to be very like Edward’. He had the droopy eyelid recessive in the Plantagenet line, shared by Henry III and Edward I. He was gifted musically, as had been the prince. When he was taken out to be executed, Henry VII had his face smashed to a pulp so no one could see the striking resemblance to Edward IV. He was buried at Austin Friars, a cemetery reserved for the nobility. Another oddity for a purported Dutch peasant. Here are a few others buried there: Humphrey de Bohun, 6th Earl of Hereford • Sir Philip le Despenser • Edward of Angoulême • Richard Fitzalan, 4th Earl of Arundel • Lucia Visconti • Sir John Tyrrell • Sir James Tyrrell • Sir Thomas Cooke • William de Berkeley, 1st Marquess of Berkeley • • Maurice Berkeley, 3rd Baron Berkeley • Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham There is a room in the Ducal Palace at Bruges called to this day ‘Richard’s room.’ If they were looking for an impostor, it would be almost astronomically impossible to find such a perfect one. Henry knew exactly who he was.

@MyrnaMinkoff-yy4qd I think Perkin Warbeck was one of the illegitimate sons of the brothers when they found sanctuary at Margaret's Court. Not even an illegitimate son of Edward, George maybe or one of the cousins. There were so many Plantagenets before Henry Tudor. But her family WAS on the Throne. Her niece Elizabeth was Queen, and Arthur,Margaret,Henry Mary,Edmund,Elizabeth and Katherine their children also in power (the 3 who survived into adulthood)

@angelwhispers2060 3 месяца назад

Poor Margaret. Never got a fair chance to be a mother, her husband's ambitions overshadowing her. Or perhaps it was intentional as her husband wanted his daughter to succeed him. The valuable intended marriage alliance to Maximilian would certainly make this a strong possibility if he was trying to make burgundy its own country or at least its own principality. But it also means Margaret never had to endure the terrible issues surrounding childbirth back then.

@sdl1ishappy Год назад

Fascinating, and I've always thought she knew that one or both of The Princes in the Tower were alive. Richard always struck me as someone ruthless enough to disinherit children but pious enough not to murder them, preferring to stash them away. His sister seemed like an obvious ally in this. I am especially open to the idea that Perkin Warbuck was the real deal and she knew it. I know it's not a common opinion, but there's a great book called The Survival of the Princes of the Tower that explores this idea. On top of that, she seems like a fascinating and brilliant woman.

@HistorysForgottenPeople Год назад

The whole Princes in the Tower mystery fascinates me, as well. Add that just a few days before their disappearance, Prince Edward asked for a doctor because he was ill, and thought he was close to death. I always think it is - weirdly - the main reason Richard didn't kill them. If you wanted them out of the way, and everyone knows a doctor has been called for the boys, either let nature take its course, or make it look like it did. Then, a lavish royal funeral as the nephews of the king. Having no funeral for them points to either; someone kidnapped them (doesn't rule out later death), or someone else killed them and disposed of the bodies. This is all my own conjecture, of course! I'm sure lots of holes can probably be poked in it. 😊 But certainly, whether Margaret of York truly believed Perkin Warbeck was her nephew or wanted to believe it (I always imagine an 'Anastasia' situation), she recognised he was the best chance of gaining the throne back for her family.

@sdl1ishappy Год назад

@@HistorysForgottenPeople Richard's behavior was just odd. If he had murdered them, he should have made it look like natural causes and shown around the bodies, as his brother did with Henry VI. It's possible someone botched the job and thus they had to get rid of the bodies. But then he could have pinned the murders on someone else, like Buckingham, at least for show. But he didn't. And he didn't murder his brother George's son Edward, who had an arguably better claim than Richard. He may have at least thought the princes might be alive or, as I said, had sent one or both to his sister. Or at least told his sister where they might be. If they were alive, they would have been a massive threat to Henrys VII and VIII, that's for sure, so any evidence they had would be destroyed. It is one of the great historical mysteries because nothing really makes sense and we have to be missing pieces. Fun to discuss. At least no one thinks it was aliens!

That's my belief, too. If either of her nephews had really escaped, and their supporters wanted them to be safe in Europe somewhere, Margaret literally would have been the first choice to keep them under her protection, even if not publicly. But when Perkin Warbeck turned up with nice manners and a good resemblance, all Margaret would have needed to do is instruct him in courtly matters and fund him.

You're right - someone else mentioned that fact! I assume she understood Elizabeth will have had little choice in her marriage, and perhaps considered her differently because of that fact. There's also the complication that Margaret reportedly didn't like Elizabeth's mother, Elizabeth Woodville, and so that perhaps influenced her way of thinking, too?

Thanks for this presentation of an important and often overlooked person. A nitpick: George wasn't Margaret's older brother as he was born after her, in 1449.

The painting of Margaret with the very oversized head looks eerie. Was it common at this time for such unrealistic portraits to be made? The Low Countries during this period had excellent artists, so the caricatural nature of the portrait surely can’t be ascribed to a lack of availability of talented portraitists..

@HistorysForgottenPeople 8 месяцев назад

The portrait is so strange! I feel as though it was either very stylized (although I couldn't find many other paintings like this), or just simply not a very good artist. It's especially odd when you see portraits of her husband, Charles the Bold, which are very good, or those of her step-daughter, Mary of Burgundy, which are also well painted. What's really strange is that Margaret of York became a seriously wealthy lady, and it would have been easy to have someone else paint her portrait, but it doesn't seem to have happened - this one is thought to have been painted just before her wedding. Maybe there's a painting out there of her that just hasn't been recognised yet?

@HistorysForgottenPeople Год назад

I quite like Henry II! His mother was my heroine, Empress Matilda, and he showed her a huge amount of respect (even calling himself Henry Fitzempress), including her as his most important advisor. I think he was a good king, he seems to have been intelligent and aware of what the country needed - such as his overhaul of the state administration, and his later attempts to reform the English Church. Although, of course, Thomas Beckett getting killed WAS wrapped up in that, as well. I also think he had a big task ahead of him with his three sons, separating his lands fairly between them, and that was tricky no matter what. When his wife, Eleanor was alone in Aquitaine for a number of years, she was gradually given more and more autonomy over her lands, and probably would have remained that way had the attempted coup by Eleanor and his sons had not occurred. Points against Henry - possibly imprisoning his wife for over 15 years? Although I also think there was a legitimate fear of how clever and powerful Eleanor was, and Henry genuinely didn't know what else to do with her after the revolt. There's also Rosamund Clifford (along with other mistresses). I can't have too much of a go at people who have to marry politically then falling in love with someone else,but you can have a go at them flaunting it. Eleanor was well aware of her queenly status, and it must have been galling to see her husband publicly showing the mistress off at court. Not to mention if Eleanor had a public affair, she would have been treated very differently. So overall, I like him a lot as a king, but I also think k Henry had some flaws that made him human. I also think he had to juggle a lot of different balls, and that made every decision difficult to keep everyone happy at the same time.

It was even debatable who was Harry's father since she had a high profile and well documented affair with James Hewitt shortly before she was pregnant with Harry. She did not have the same education standards to actually rule anything. Far too many people insisted on putting her on a pedestal when she was no saint by any stretch of the imagination and they need to stop representing her as one because she did not love Charles any more than he loved her.

Relationship of Margaret with her brothers ??? Which brother was her favourite ??? ❤❤❤❤

@HistorysForgottenPeople Год назад

I think (based on anecdotal evidence from her letters and such), historians believe George was her favourite brother. I think Margaret got on well with all of her brothers, certainly there doesn't seem to have been a lot of conflict between herself and them the way they fought with each other, but there may have been a lot unsaid. There were times Edward did not help with sending her husband enough aid (or at all), but no doubt she will have seen politically the reasons for this. I also think most noble or royal women, once they were married elsewhere, that became their main sphere of interest even though blood-ties remained - siblings and parents often didn't see each other for years or even decades after royal marriages to foreign rulers. Margaret was probably more wrapped up in Burgundy's interests while her brothers were alive, and it was only after Henry VII took the English throne that she became more involved in England's politics.

This is why Louis XI made her life a hell like he did to Marie and Maximilian. Louis XI had only one goal : destroy Burgundy, annihilate Brittany and make England a dwarf on the continent.

8:16 no offence to French ppl but Louis looks so stereotypically French here😭

@HistorysForgottenPeople Год назад

He had some very exaggerated portraits! There are a few where Louis looks a lot less like a caricature, and I wondered which one was closer to the real him - considering the artist wouldn't get paid unless he liked it!

Whereas the English king looks so stereopically ....stupid ! 🤣🤣
