Elizabeth I acceded to the throne in 1558. At the heart of the new queen’s court lay Elizabeth’s bedchamber, closely guarded by the favoured women who helped her dress, looked after her jewels and shared her bed. The Queen;s bedchamber was once a private and a public space and it was her Ladies of the Bedchamber who were guardians of the truth as to the Queen’s and thus the nation’s wellbeing. Their presence was for security as well as propriety. This lecture explored the politics of intimacy, sexual slander, conspiracy and suspicion which centred on the Queen’s body and her bedchamber.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
