Conference: Mary I, 500th Anniversary Year

London

Conference to commemorate the 500th anniverysary year of England’s first Queen regnant, Mary I, the daughter of King Henry VIII and Queen Catherine of Aragon, born on 18 February 1516, at the former Greenwich Palace. Thanks to the new research which is still being carried out into her character, life and times, it seems right to hold a conference, on the anniversary of her Coronation, which took place in Westminster Abbey on 1 October 1553.

The aim of the conference is to bring together as many as possible of the scholars who are doing new work on Queen Mary herself, on her joint reign with her husband, King Philip of Spain (1554-1558), and on England’s place in Europe and the rest of the world.
