Shushkin V.V. “True Catholic” married to the Huguenot leader: the example of Marguerite de Valois

Abstract: the article deals with the religious ideas and the resulting political steps of Marguerite de Valois (1553- 1615) in the civil wars in France during the second half of the XVI century. Based on the “Memoirs” of the Queen, contemporaries and other sources, the author concludes that, as, in her own words, “the true Catholic”, Marguerite tried to actively mediate between the warring camps — Catholic and Protestant. Following the ideals of Neo-Platonism, which she professed, the Queen of Navarre sought to maintain interfaith peace through diplomatic and political efforts, as well as religious tolerance. Individual manifestations of the religious hostility were associated only with threats to her life and diminish the prerogatives of the royal rank.

Keywords:
