Résumé
Katherine Manners, later Duchess of Buckingham, was one of the most intriguing and influential women of early 17th-century England. Born into immense wealth and devout Catholic faith, she defied social expectations by marrying George Villiers, the charismatic favorite of King James I and one of the most powerful men in the realm. Their union was a bold crossing of religious and political boundaries, and Katherine's intelligence, piety, and strength of character made her a quietly formidable presence at court during one of the most turbulent eras in British history. Beyond the glittering surface of court life, Katherine endured personal loss, political scandal, and religious persecution with a resilience that defined her legacy.
Widowed young after George's dramatic assassination, she raised their children amidst danger and intrigue, never relinquishing her dignity or faith. This compelling portrait reveals the woman behind the duchess-a figure of quiet power, spiritual conviction, and emotional depth whose story deserves to be remembered.
