Blanche of Navarre: A Play

By George Payne Rainsford James

Book Overview

Blanche of Navarre is a play written by G. P. R. James. The story is set in France in the 15th century and centers around the life of Blanche, the daughter of King Charles VI. Blanche is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to protect her family and her country from the political turmoil that surrounds them. She is also a devout Catholic who is deeply committed to her faith. The play explores Blanche's relationships with her family, including her father and her brother, as well as her interactions with the powerful men who seek to control her and her country. It also delves into the complex political and religious issues of the time, including the conflict between the French and English, and the tensions between the Catholic Church and the Protestant Reformation. Blanche of Navarre is a compelling drama that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval France and the struggles of a remarkable woman who fought for her beliefs and her people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
