As you know I've done 2 different series of posts looking at the labels that people have given Anne – wh*re, witch, victim, martyr, career woman, homewrecker etc etc. and I was just wondering if you have any more ideas for labels or stereotypes that Anne has been given.
I thought I could write about Anne's roles as Anne the Lover, Anne the Murderer (allegations of poisoning etc.), Anne the Reformer, Anne the Mother…but was wondering if you guys have any ideas of things you'd like discussed. Let me know!
Thanks!

How about Anne the Queen? What has been her imprint on the British Empire throughout the years? How has the perceptions about her colored her reign? Besides the obvious contribution of giving birth to one of the most celebrated monarchs of British history, what is her actual legacy within the annals of history?

I really like the idea of Anne the Reformer since there should be a great deal of information on that. I also really like the post today on Anne and Catherine. It would be cool to see Anne's relationship to Princess Mary, her sister Mary, even her relationship with Henry.

how about Anne the protestant/lutherian (excuse my spelling if its wrong), people always think she was those but wasnt she a reformer so neither papist nor protestant? Id like a piece clarifing it all Claire because even I get confused with all the terminology!

I thought of another one. Anne the Patroness of the Arts. There may not be a lot of specific information out there, but I'd love to know about her love of poetry and art. Her family patronized Holbein, but I've heard she did more for artists as queen.
