A major intellectual, Jamess preoccupations ranged from witchcraft and theological controversy to hunting, diplomacy, poetry and sartorial fashion. The Mirror of Great Britain was a spectacular jewel that gave symbolic endorsement to Jamess vision of British union, but mirrors themselves - with their limitless capacity to magnify, illuminate and distort - supplied James with one of his favourite literary metaphors.<br />Ruler of Scotland for nearly four decades before his accession to the English throne in 1603, James was a cradle king whose long reigns encompassed extraordinary dramas, including his abduction in the Ruthven Raid in 1582 and his attempted assassination in the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. In his lifetime, James often confounded contemporaries expectations while his posthumous reputation has been distorted by crude stereotypes.<br />Closely attentive to Jamess own words in numerous publications, manuscript musings, topical verse and private correspondence Clare Jacksons wonderful new book tells the story of this highly unusual monarch with great flair and insight.</p><p> Clare Jackson 2025 (P) Penguin Audio 2025</p>...7065009The Mirror of Great Britain360360https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-mirror-of-great-britain-9781802068146/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/7031868/image.jpg?v=638793460267800000InStockMXN99999PR_DIAudiolibro2025Inglés
