	Mary I of Scotland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mary I of Scotland (Mary Stuart, better known as Mary, Queen of Scots; December, 1542 – February 8, 1587) was the Queen of Scots (the monarch of the Kingdom of Scotland) from December 14, 1542 to July 24, 1567.
		Mary, being a devout Roman Catholic, was regarded with suspicion by many of her subjects as well as by Elizabeth I of England, her father's cousin and the monarch of the neighbouring Protestant country.
		Mary refused to acknowledge the power of any court to try her since she was an anointed Queen, and the man ultimately in charge of the prosecution, James Stewart, Earl of Moray, was ruling Scotland in Mary's absence.

	Mary, Queen of Scots (1542-1587)
		Although Mary's great-uncle King Henry VIII of England made an unsuccessful effort to secure control of her (Mary inherited Tudor blood through her grandmother, a sister of Henry VIII of England), the regency of the kingdom was settled in favour of her mother.
		It was Mary's second marriage in July 1565 to her cousin Henry Stewart (Stuart), earl of Darnley, son of Matthew Stewart, 4th earl of Lennox, that started the fatal train of events culminating in her destruction.
		Mary and Bothwell were parted forever at Carberry Hill on June 15, 1567, Bothwell to exile and imprisonment where he died in 1578, and Mary to incarceration on the tiny island of Loch Leven, where she was formally deposed in favour of her one-year-old son James.

	Mary Queen of Scots
		Of Mary Queen of Scots, the historian Gordon Donaldson observes: “She must never be thought of as the maker of her own destiny, for her fortunes were shaped at least as much by events as by any qualities or defects in her character, or by anything she did or left undone.
		Mary was imprisoned in the castles of Sheffield, Tutbury, Wingfield, Chartley, and lastly, Fotheringhay.
		Mary wrote to him that she would be glad to be freed from her prison and that if the plot were successful she would reward those involved.

	Amazon.com: Mary Queen of Scots: Books: Susan Watkins,Mark Fiennes (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Mary, Queen of Scots, has captivated the popular imagination ever since she was executed by her cousin, Queen Elizabeth I of England.
		Made Scotland's queen when only six days old, she was betrothed to the short-lived English heir apparent and married the future king of France, only to be widowed at 18.
		Although every detail of Mary's life just couldn't be incorporated into this book, there was enough to help a person see the time that she lived in and, perhaps, what motivated her to do some of the things she did.

		That problem was immediate and gender specific: from 1561 until Mary's execution in 1587, committed Protestant men were faced with the existence of "two queens in one isle"—Elizabeth I and her cousin Mary Queen of Scots, each with comparable blood claims to the English imperial crown.
		Mary's motherhood suggested that time itself—like maternity, a powerful symbol of natural process—would heal the rupture in the natural order represented by the two queens, at least with regard to gender hierarchy and blood inheritance.
		Mary was "a woman burning in hatred of her husband, and in love of an adulterer, and in both these diseases of corrupt affections unbridled, untemperable by her estate."

	JS Online:A masterful look at the masterful Queen of Scots
		Previous biographers have described Mary's posh upbringing as a setback for the future leader of a country as rough as Scotland, but Guy argues her exposure to the wiles of her uncles, the Duke of Guise and the Cardinal of Lorraine, helped her.
		After all, crowned Queen of Scots before her first birthday, Mary was a widow by 17 and by 18 had full control of all of Scotland.
		Mary is alternately "masterful" and "beguiling," while Cecil is "a spider." The result is a new take on Mary's life that reads like Shakespearean drama, with all the delicious plotting and fresh writing to go with it.
