Thinking about Elizabeth Woodville as a gothic heroine is making me go insane. She entered the story by overturning existing social structures, provoking both ire and fascination. She married into a dynasty doomed to eat itself alive. She was repeatedly associated with the supernatural, both in terms of love and death. Her life was shaped entirely by uncanny repetitions - two marriages, two widowhoods, two depositions, two flights to sanctuary, two ultimate reclamations - all paralleling and ricocheting off each other. Her plight after 1483 exposed the true rot at the heart of the monarchy - the trappings of royalty pulled away to reveal nothing, a never-ending cycle of betrayal and war, the price of power being the (literal) blood of children. She lived past the end of her family name, she lived past the end of her myth. She ended her life in a deeply anomalous position, half-in and half-out of royal society. She was both a haunting tragedy and the ultimate survivor who was finally free.
#elizabeth woodville#nobody was doing it like her#I wanted to add more things (eg: propaganda casting her as a transgressive figure and a threat to established orders; the way we'll never#truly Know her as she's been constantly rewritten across history) but ofc neither are unique to her or any other historical woman#my post#wars of the roses#don't reblog these tags but - the thing about Elizabeth is that she kept winning and losing at the same time#She rose higher and fell harder (in 1483-85) than anyone else in the late 15th century#From 1461 she was never ever at lasting peace - her widowhood and the crisis of 1469-71 and the actual terrible nightmare of 1483-85 and#Simnel's rebellion against her family and the fact that her birth family kept dying with her#and then she herself died right around the time yet another Pretender was stirring and threatening her children. That's...A Lot.#Imho Elizabeth was THE adaptor of the Wars of the Roses - she repeatedly found herself in highly anomalous and#unprecedented situations and just had to survive and adjust every single time#But that's just...never talked about when it comes to her#There are so many aspects of her life that are potentially fascinating yet completely unexplored in scholarship or media:#Her official appointment in royal councils; her position as the first Englishwoman post the Norman Conquest to be crowned queen#and what that actually MEANT for her; an actual examination of the propaganda against her; how she both foreshadowed and set a precedent#for Henry VIII's english queens; etc#There hasn't even been a proper reassessment of her role in 1483-85 TILL DATE despite it being one of the most wildly contested#periods in medieval England#lol I guess that's what drew me to Elizabeth in the first place - there's a fundamental lack of interest or acknowledgement in what was#actually happening with her and how it may have affected her. There's SO MUCH we can talk about but historians have repeatedly#stuck to the basics - and even then not well#I guess I have more things to write about on this blog then ((assuming I ever ever find the energy)#also to be clear while the Yorkists did 'eat themselves alive' they also Won - the crisis of 1483-85 was an internal conflict within#the dynasty that was not related to the events that ended in 1471 (which resulted in Edward IV's victory)#Henry Tudor was a figurehead for Edwardian Yorkists who specifically raised him as a claimant and were the ones who supported him#specifically as the husband of Elizabeth of York (swearing him as king only after he publicly swore to marry her)#Richard's defeat at Bosworth had *nothing* to do with 'York VS Lancaster' - it was the victory of one Yorkist faction against another#But yes the traditional line of succession was broken by Richard's betrayal and the male dynastic line was ultimately extinguished.

THE HOT MEDIEVAL & FANTASY MEN MELEE
QUALIFYING ROUND: 5th Tilt
Edward the Black Prince, A Knight's Tale (2001) VS. King Henry VII Tudor, The Hollow Crown (2012-2016)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda
Edward the Black Prince, A Knight's Tale (2001) Portrayed by: James Purefoy
“The medieval romantic disguised royalty trope, the ridiculous but very sexy long leather coat, the cheeky sense of humour...”
King Henry VII Tudor, The Hollow Crown (2012-2016) Portrayed by: Luke Treadaway
“He makes his first appearance about an hour and twenty minutes into the two hour program, and he exists basically for the sole purpose of looking youthful and righteous, marching slowly - upright and princely on horseback - along the coastline. He looks very pretty bathed in the rosy glow of the sunset the night before battle, gets in a nice kingly speech in the morning and then, drenched and covered in mud, he wins the day. Perfection. 10/10 no notes.”

@softodettes made a post and it started a little brainrot session at 2am, so if the sawyer/jesinia is taking too long I'm blaming it on her and not on my tendencies to procrastinate... anyways

the jujutsu boys !!
Some thoughts on the watches:
I have this book about watches that I pulled inspo from. Yuji is wearing a Tudor diving watch (oyster prince submariner), Megumi a Rolex (oyster perpetual)… I heard somewhere the lore behind the two sister brands is Tudor’s logo, the shield, symbolizes that it is the “shield” to the Rolex crown.. which I thought was kinda fitting of their characters 😤 megumi comes from a long family line of sorcerers and his entire relationship with yuji revolves around them both protecting and uplifting each other to get stronger. Also, Tudor is known as a military/navy watch brand, if Yuji weren’t a sorcerer I’d imagine he’d be in that kind of field.. lol anyway that was way too deep for just me wanting to practice rendering formal wear 🙈
