Viewing history as a grand drama, Froude emphasized great personalities and disdained the scientific approach in his historical writing. This epic, twelve-volume narrative presents a vivid portrait of a tumultuous era. The ninth volume begins with the mysterious murder of Lord Darnley—husband of Mary, Queen of Scots—in 1567. It ends with the Battle of Gelt Bridge in 1570, when Elizabeth I’s troops were defeated by those of her cousin, Lord Hunsdon.
लेखक के बारे में
James Anthony Froude (1818-1894) was an English historian, biographer, and novelist. His histories, modeled on those of his friend Thomas Carlyle, were fiercely polemical, as was his own
The Nemesis of Faith, which questioned the Anglican church. His biography of Carlyle,
Life of Carlyle (1882-84), proved intensely controversial in focusing on the great man’s flaws as well as his virtues.
