Queen Marie Antoinette, wife of King Louis XVI of France and Queen
Henrietta Maria, wife of King Charles I of England were two of the
most notorious queens in European history. They both faced
accusations that they had transgressed social, gender and regional
norms, and attempted to defend themselves against negative
reactions to their behavior. Each queen engaged with the debates of
her time concerning the place of women within their families,
religion, politics, the public sphere and court culture and
attempted to counter criticism of her foreign origins and political
influence. The impeachment of Henrietta Maria in 1643 and trial and
execution of Marie Antoinette in 1793 were also trials of
monarchical government that shaped the English Civil Wars and
French Revolution.
