The Kings & Queens of England - Softcover
Returning to some of the perennial questions of philosophy, this book examines questions about the meaning of life; about death and tragedy; about the respective roles of rationality and passion in the good life; about love, compassion, and revenge; about honesty, deception, and betrayal; and about who we are and how we think about who we are.

From the Publisher:
The kings and queens of England have an enduring hold over the cultural psyche of the British. Whether it’s William the Conqueror’s slaying of Harold Godwinson, King John’s mythic badness or Henry VIII’s readiness to behead his unfortunate wives, these monarchs hold both legendary and symbolic positions in the public imagination, but are also integral to how history and events have shaped England today. In this new illustrated edition, historians expert in their field vividly present the lives of the country’s monarchs from the warrior kings of the so–called Dark Ages through to the present queen.
Mark Ormrod is Professor and Director of the Centre for Medieval Studies at the University of York. His other book, The Reign of Edward III, is published by Tempus.
