The Cousins' War Series	comment	The Cousins' War series is a highly successful series of Historical Fiction novels by British author Philippa Gregory (famous mostly for her novels about the Tudors, especially The Other Boleyn Girl) set during the Wars of the Roses under the dynasty preceding the Tudors, the Plantagenets. Like most of Gregory's Tudor novels, each of them is centered around and told from the perspective of a prominent woman of the period. The White Queen (2009) - follows Elizabeth Woodville, wife of the York King Edward IV and the first commoner to marry an English monarch. The Red Queen (2010) - follows Margaret Beaufort, mother of the Lancaster claimant Henry Tudor, later King Henry VII The Lady of the Rivers (2011) - follows Jacquetta of Luxembourg, mother of Elizabeth Woodville and an influential figure first at the court of the Lancaster King Henry VI and Margaret of Anjou, and later at Edward and Elizabeth's The Kingmaker's Daughter (2012) - follows sisters Anne and Isabel Neville, daughters of Kingmaker the Earl of Warwick and pawns in his bid for revenge against King Edward. Anne eventually becomes the queen of Richard III. The White Princess (2013) - follows Elizabeth and Edward's eldest daughter, also named Elizabeth, whose marriage to Henry VII would eventually unite the houses of York and Lancaster. The King's Curse (2014) - the last book of the series follows Margaret Pole, daughter of George, Duke of Clarence and Isabelle Neville and one of the last surviving members of the Plantagenet dynasty.In 2013 a ten-part TV adaptation of the series, called The White Queen but covering the events of The White Queen, The Red Queen and The Kingmaker's Daughter, aired on BBC One. It wasn't very well received critically, but got a decent audience and brought a lot more publicity to the books. Reception was far more positive in the US, where it aired on Starz. A sequel, The White Princess, began airing in April, 2017, with an all-new cast.

The Cousins' War Series / int_10dcbe05	type	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other
The Cousins' War Series / int_10dcbe05	comment	Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: George and Isabel marry each other for power, but when Isabel dies, George grieves for her in a way that suggests he did love her. Maybe. There are a couple of hints that suggest he may have poisoned her. Not so much in the books, but the mini-series implies that Stanley sided with Tudor (thereby securing his victory) out of love — or at least affection and pity — for his wife Margaret. Not exactly love - nor do we see the trial in the books - but Jacquetta knows that Margaret of Anjou has enough affection for her (and vice versa) that she would chop off Warwick's head if anything befell Jacquetta. She uses this to her advantage. And, lo and behold, Margaret of Anjou - in her very next scene in that episode - mentions the "wheel of fortune", which Jacquetta taught her. Yeah, Jacquetta is right to make Warwick wary of Margaret of Anjou.

The Cousins' War Series / int_22cf536c	comment	After the execution of her father and brother John, Elizabeth Woodville insists on cursing the two people responsible for their murders to die: Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, and George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence. Her mother tries to warn her off, but in the end, she gives her instructions on how to do it. Both men die by execution: Richard Neville on the battlefield and George by drowning after being found guilty of treason. The price isn't obvious unless you acknowledge a seeing that Elizabeth had in Episode 1: she receives a warning that her "boys" must not be with strangers. At the time, she and her mother both thought it was about the two sons Elizabeth had from her first husband. But Elizabeth's two sons (or rather, one son and one imposter) with Edward IV are given into the care of "strangers" after Edward's death, because they are committed to the Tower by their guardian, Richard III. The murder of the Princes in the Tower, an event that Elizabeth was warned about but could not prevent, was the price for getting mystical revenge on the Kingmaker and her brother-in-law.

In her heart, Margaret Beaufort was fully convinced that her son is destined to be King and she actively plotted to make it happen. But, she cleverly hid her disgust towards Elizabeth Woodville, who later turned to her for alliance after Richard usurped the throne.

However, throughout the series she seems to be very short-sighted and constantly listens to the wrong people. The most typical instance is when she continues to hold a vendetta against George of Clarence while both her mother Jacquetta and her brother Anthony Woodville advised her to make peace with George. George's eventual execution later proves to be her undoing - Richard of Gloucester is so shaken and disturbed by this event that it partially leads to his usurpation of the throne from his nephews. Less so in the books, where it's emphasised that Edward was always going to have to execute George, who has been repeatedly betraying and slandering his brother, the King of England, for many years.

Isabel calls her a she-wolf who murdered their grandfather and tried to spear their father with a roasting spit. In the end of Issy's story she lost the battle and was blown away to the cold, cold north with her son the prince of ice. When the sisters meet her it turns out she's just as cold in person.

The Cousins' War Series / int_325a15f1	comment	Rags to Royalty: There are elements of this in Elizabeth's story; while the Woodvilles are far from poor, by the standards of the court and aristocracy they are nobodies and Elizabeth's rise to Queen of England is dramatic and shocking. Elizabeth herself was absolutely penniless when she met the King, however, as her husband had died, and his mother refused to give her and their two sons their share of the inheritance. Anne Neville applies as well; her story has even more ups and downs than Elizabeth Woodville's. She starts out as the daughter of one of England's foremost noblemen, then marries Edward of Lancaster, becoming Princess of Wales. However, when the Lancastrians lose she became merely Lady Anne Neville, the penniless and powerless ward of the Duke of Clarence. Then she marries the Duke of Gloucester, becomes a royal duchess, and ends as Queen of England.

The Cousins' War Series / int_4127eb1	comment	Shut Up, Hannibal!: At the end of The Red Queen Margaret smugly tells Elizabeth of York that whatever the outcome of the Battle of Bosworth, Elizabeth will be publicly humiliated: she will either marry Henry Tudor (and have no name or title of her own, since she was declared illegitimate) or King Richard (whose affair with her is public knowledge). Elizabeth replies that, either way, she'll be Queen of England and will never have to answer to Margaret again. Unfortunately, it's only a brief victory for Elizabeth, as Margaret eventually takes over the English royal court, leaving Elizabeth as queen only in name. It's only through Elizabeth that Henry VII is able to keep his throne - after her death he is loathed beyond reason, so Elizabeth of York wins in the end. In The Kingmaker's Daughter, Margaret of Anjou tries to convince Richard to join her side and offers him Anne Neville's hand. In the novel, Richard replies that he is the King's loyal brother, no matter what. In the TV series, Anne goes up to her and tells her that she is not hers to give. Needless to say, Margaret breaks down completely afterwards. The Countess of Warwick tries to convince Anne to leave Richard and stand with her to regain her estates and fortune. And Anne's response? She has her mother locked up and forbids her to contact anyone.

The Cousins' War Series / int_56515a39	comment	Artistic License – History: It is almost certain that Edward IV made the pragmatic decision to un-alive Henry VI, but the manner in which he died or whether any of the York brothers, including Richard, were even present is unknown. Tudor propaganda placed the blame on Richard, but the only contemporary source places Richard, who was only 18 at the time, elsewhere. At the time of his death, Richard was in the process of negotiating foreign marriages for himself and Elizabeth of York. There's some evidence that Elizabeth may have had a crush on her uncle but the moralistic Richard denied rumors he was intending to marry his niece. As long as Edward of Lancaster lived, nobody, including Margaret Beaufort, would have seen Henry Tudor as a candidate for the throne. There is also no evidence that she had anything other than familial feelings toward Jasper Tudor. Nobody knows what happened to The Princes in the Tower, but there's no evidence Elizabeth Woodville swapped her son for an unfortunate servant lad. Some historians have explored the idea that Perkin Warbeck was the genuine article, but it would more likely have been Richard who sent the boy to his sister in Burgundy rather than Elizabeth.

Elizabeth Woodville did consider the benefit for herself and her family before marrying Edward IV. After becoming Queen of England, she's ruthless in taking down her enemies even though her intention was to protect herself and her children. The Nevilles aren't that different. Anne Neville (at least in the TV series) persuaded Richard to take the throne from his nephew so that they could be safe. In comparison, Margaret Beaufort and Henry Tudor were much more power hungry and tyrannical. However, by having Henry Tudor wed Elizabeth of York, they united two warring houses and gave England peace.

The Cousins' War Series / int_bec0417c	comment	Happily Married: Jacquetta and Richard. They have their fair share of troubles, but their actual marriage is rock solid and they're still passionately in love with each other after thirty years and fourteen children. Elizabeth and Edward also have a very loving marriage, although with rather more strife and rather less fidelity. Margaret and her second husband Henry Stafford were happy with each other until their clashing attitudes towards the war tore them apart. Seriously, if you think this is not a happy marriage, then there is something wrong with you. Margaret's expression as Henry lays dying; OUCH!. She's utterly broken - it may have been arranged... but it was happy and she went back on never forgiving him; she forgave him for what he did and cried when he died. Does that include the fact that she repeatedly ridiculed him for not following her beliefs, treated him like a moron and cheated on him with Jasper (and in fact imagined he was Jasper while they made love)? Not to mention that in the books she's utterly disdainful towards him. She was upset by his death, yes, but in the way you would be upset over a pet dying. Hell, even Wikipedia defines the relationship as "heavily strained". Margaret and Stanley; there's a bit more strife and bitchness, but these two should be the epitome of happily married Deadpan Snarkers! Less so in the books, where they're more like plotting partners with no real affection for each other. Richard of Gloucester and Anne Neville were happy together as well, before Richard became King. Like Margaret and Henry Stafford, they were eventually driven apart by the continual political conflict.

The Cousins' War Series / int_cb70651c	comment	Maybe Magic, Maybe Mundane: Jacquetta and Elizabeth both firmly believe in a kind of witchcraft based on the legend of their ancestor being the water goddess Melusina (Elizabeth's brother Anthony calls it 'part Bible and part fairy tale and all nonsense') and, while Gregory has made it clear that she is in no way contending that they were actually witches, in-story it's left ambiguous. Certainly most of their spells do get the desired effects, but they're all things that could equally well have happened by coincidence. The real-life Jacquetta was tried for witchcraft, possibly twice. Also, there are period references that show the Luxembourgs were one of three noble houses that purposely altered their lineage to make themselves descendants of the river goddess: the Luxembourgs claimed that the founder of their house, Siegfried (922-998 AD), married Melusina and that she bore him children. How much traction that family legend had five centuries later can't be known, but it's entirely possible that Gregory's depiction of Jacquetta's beliefs, which she passed on to her daughter and granddaughter, may be closer to the truth than one might think. In the first episode of The White Princess, even Elizabeth admits she can't really be sure if her spells ever accomplished anything, or if she just got lucky. And after all, if she had any real magic, her family might not have ended up where they were then, in Henry's power.

The Cousins' War Series / int_d246d18b	comment	Historical Relationship Overhaul: The books portray Richard III and Elizabeth of York as having been in love and having a sexual affair before his death. There were rumors that he wanted to marry her, but he denied this. Anthony Woodville and Jane Shore, again portrayed has having a sexual relationship, were not known to have one in real life. Margaret Beaufort and Jasper Tudor were not in love, merely family by marriage united in concern for her son and his nephew, Henry Tudor.

However, in the end, the ones who are harmed by the curses are her own children, and thus her own bloodline. This also applies to Warwick, who taught his ward Richard of Gloucester to show no mercy and to not miss any opportunity to gain victory. Richard later used it against Lady Anne Beauchamp, his mother-in-law, whom was declared dead and property confiscated.

The Cousins' War Series / int_d782bd52	type	Equivalent Exchange
The Cousins' War Series / int_d782bd52	comment	Equivalent Exchange: The series leaves plenty of room for those disinclined to believe in magic to have mundane, if coincidental explanations for the results of the Woodville women's "spells". However, if you choose to indulge that element, the actual acts of casting and cursing do follow the "rules": Both times Jacquetta takes her daughter Elizabeth to the river's edge to have her "choose a thread", there are always three to choose from. Once Elizabeth chooses, Jacquetta cuts the other lines and doesn't tell her what they were. This is because in choosing the one line, or path, Elizabeth is giving up the knowledge and opportunities represented by the others. After the execution of her father and brother John, Elizabeth Woodville insists on cursing the two people responsible for their murders to die: Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, and George Plantagenet, Duke of Clarence. Her mother tries to warn her off, but in the end, she gives her instructions on how to do it. Both men die by execution: Richard Neville on the battlefield and George by drowning after being found guilty of treason. The price isn't obvious unless you acknowledge a seeing that Elizabeth had in Episode 1: she receives a warning that her "boys" must not be with strangers. At the time, she and her mother both thought it was about the two sons Elizabeth had from her first husband. But Elizabeth's two sons (or rather, one son and one imposter) with Edward IV are given into the care of "strangers" after Edward's death, because they are committed to the Tower by their guardian, Richard III. The murder of the Princes in the Tower, an event that Elizabeth was warned about but could not prevent, was the price for getting mystical revenge on the Kingmaker and her brother-in-law. The storm that Jacquetta, her daughter Elizabeth and her granddaughter Elizabeth conjure in Episode 3 was intended to stop Richard Neville from making it to France. The cost? Isabel and George's first child, who it is implied died during the birth because his mother didn't have access to a midwife because the ship couldn't make port in Calais due to the storm. Without a male heir, George lost the illusion that God backed him for king rather than his brother Edward, who had only had daughters at this point, and therefore the support of the English populace. Without that support, Warwick and George became even more desperate: enough so to seek alliance with the deposed Queen Margaret of Anjou... a queen they'd been instrumental to deposing to begin with. So rather than taking some of the steam out of their rebellion, the consequences of the storm only made it worse. After the murder of the Princes in the Tower, Elizabeth Woodville and her daughter, Elizabeth of York, use the river that runs beneath Westminster to cast a curse upon the murderer: that the firstborn sons of their line would die, until all their generations were ended. What they don't know is that the person responsible for arranging the murders is Margaret Beaufort, and that Elizabeth of York will eventually marry her only child: Henry Tudor, or King Henry VII.

The Cousins' War Series / int_f740a274	comment	Historical Beauty Update: Applies to all characters in the TV series except for Margaret Beaufort, and even in her case YMMV. Somewhat ambiguous in the case of Jacquetta, who is portrayed as an older, but still very attractive blonde in the series, and in the books is described as having been a world class beauty in her youth. No one knows what the real Jacquetta looked like, as there are no portraits or descriptions of her from her lifetime. The real Elizabeth Woodville herself was a very beautiful woman, but possessed brownish red hair and brown eyes - she was likely made into a blue-eyed blonde for the series because the producers felt it better fit the stereotypical image of a "White Queen". The same applies to her daughter, Elizabeth of York - also a very beautiful woman, but again, brown eyed and red-blonde haired, unlike the blue eyed and flaxen haired actress. Edward IV was a very handsome man as well, but like his more famous grandson, he got very obese before dying. The show has him gain weight, but not as much. Richard III was in no way the deformed hunchback of Shakespeare, but he was also not the stunning Pretty Boy he is in the show. He was considered decent-looking, if ordinary compared to his more handsome brothers, and DNA tests indicated he would have had blond hair and blue eyes, though portraits indicate his hair likely darkened. His remains showed that he did have scoliosis, but that would have not been visible underneath his clothes.

Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret Beaufort, Anne Neville, and Elizabeth of York have been bullied and humiliated by others and at time to each other. At least in their own point of view, their actions in response apply to this troupe. For Elizabeth Woodville, Warwick crossed the line after he slew her father and brother; in response, she cursed him to die. Margaret Beaufort had a very few people who treated her kindly, but special mention goes to her mother, who made her do "a woman's duty" at age 12 and never stopped insulting her. Before her mother's deathbed, Margaret Beaufort refused to forgive her and left her mother to die alone in misery. Anne Neville (at least in TV series) was never kindly treated by Elizabeth Woodville, who held a grudge against her because of her father Warwick. From Anne's perspective, Elizabeth Woodville crossed the line after she "supposedly" poisoned her sister Isabel. She, in response, talked Richard into taking the throne from his nephew after the death of Edward IV.
