	Marguerite de Navarre
		(b) "Guilty Sisters: Marguerite de Navarre, Elizabeth of England, and the Miroir de l'ame pecheresse" (2000), by Susan Snyder, speculates on the significance of Marguerite's use of the word "sister" in her poem (and, briefly, on Elizabeth Tudor's 1544 translation of the work).
		At times though, Navarre speaks of her contemporaries, here of those who argued that because man's passions are so strong, he is not responsible for his actions (an idea that will recur in the frame discussions of the Heptameron).
		She was 11 years older than her husband and they seem to have had little in common, but the marriage produced two children: a daughter, Jeanne d'Albret, (who would become the next Queen of Navarre) and a son who died a few months after his birth.

	Vallieres. Tudor Succession Problems.
		The succession problems of the Tudor monarchs were largely caused by their lack of issue, for none of Henry VIII's children had children, poor health and were complicated by plots arising from the uncertainty of the succession, foreign affairs, and the wishes of the monarchs of the periods in relation to Henry VIII's will.
		The Tudor dynasty was plagued by poor health, short-lives and a shortage of male claimants to the throne.
		While the Tudor period is generally viewed as a one of stability, the recurring succession difficulties created instability and often posed the threat of civil war and even foreign invasion.
