Скачать или смотреть The Forgotten Tudor Powerhouse Behind William Cecil

When you hear the name Cecil in Tudor history, you probably think of William Cecil, Elizabeth I’s right-hand man.
But behind him was his wife, Mildred Cecil, born Mildred Cooke on 25th August 1526 — a woman every bit as remarkable, and one of the most learned women of her age.

In this video, I uncover the fascinating life of Mildred Cecil:
Her extraordinary humanist education, ranking her alongside Lady Jane Grey.
Her marriage to William Cecil, forming a true Tudor power couple.
Her scholarship, translations, and magnificent library.
Her role at Elizabeth I’s court and her influence behind the scenes.
The legacy she left behind — from books gifted to schools and universities to her resting place in Westminster Abbey.

Too often overshadowed by her husband and son, Mildred Cecil deserves to be remembered as a Tudor powerhouse in her own right.
