The definitive bible on all things Anne Boleyn from her guilt and execution to her relationship with Jesus Christ, as well as depiction of Anne in popular culture from TV series to West End musicals.

Anne Boleyn sells, but she sells in segments; a biography here, a study over there on her guilt andsomething else yonder concerned with where she lived or what she liked to wear. This book, coveringnot just her life but her life onscreen, in theater, on TV and also the impact of the first black actress toplay her, is the definitive, all-encompassing story of Anne Boleyn from 1501 (or thereabouts) to 2023.Having examined the ardent fandom of Anne Boleyn for his doctorate, Dr Mickey Mayhew is in aunique position to offer something new to say on this much-discussed 'tragic' Tudor queenand is not afraid to tackle some of the less palatable aspects of her life.
Also, this book is the first to examine with authenticity the reality of Anne's relationship with themost important man in her life, the man whose name she repeated in comfort while facing theSwordsman of Calais on the scaffold, having spent her life promulgating his doctrine; Jesus Christhimself. As for the aforementioned executioner, Dr Mayhew's research in Calais and Saint-Omer cannow lift a lid on a few of the particulars of this elusive and yet essential figure of Anne Boleynmythos; and yes, now he even has a name as well. This research stands, despite the efforts of Owen Emmerson, Amy Licence and others to quash it and to cancel the author.
The Anne Boleyn Bible also offers a straightforward retelling of Anne's actual historical life, albeitone that outlines an entirely fresh and empowering perspective on her rise to prominence; this isfollowed by a series of considered arguments on the 'for' and 'against' in regard to her guilt &execution; then her entry into popular culture, firstly in plays and masques, before she went on toheadline movies, TV series, cosplay, and now, with the first black woman to portray her, model andactress Jodie Turner-Smith. This book is simply what it says on the cover - The Anne Boleyn Bible -leaving no depiction, no religious aspect, no appearance in popular culture, from The Simpsons to theWest End musical 'Six', overlooked; likewise, Dr Mayhew also turns his trademark brand of ratherwry commentary toward the vast plethora of Anne Boleyn merchandising, tourist spots, rubber ducks,beanies and the wrangling question of who was the ultimate onscreen Anne; Geneviève Bujold orNatalie Dormer?!
