Anna of Byzantium / Tracy Barrett

Public ISBD Titre : Anna of Byzantium Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Tracy Barrett, Auteur Editeur : New York, NY : Laurel-Leaf Books Année de publication : 2000 Importance : 209 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-440-41536-7 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : 3 Culture:3.40 Littérature:Forme et genre littéraire:Fiction:Fiction historique 3 Culture:3.40 Littérature:Forme et genre littéraire:Prose:Roman 3 Culture:3.40 Littérature:Jeunesse Résumé : Anna Comnena has every reason to feel entitled. She's a princess, her father's firstborn and his chosen successor. Someday she expects to sit on the throne and rule the vast Byzantine Empire. So the birth of a baby brother doesn't perturb her. Nor do the "barbarians" from foreign lands, who think only a son should ascend to power. Anna is as dismissive of them as are her father and his most trusted adviser--his mother, a manipulative woman with whom Anna studies the art of diplomacy. Anna relishes her lessons, proving adept at checkmating opponents in swift moves of mental chess. But as she matures into a young woman, her arrogance and intelligence threaten her grandmother. Anna will be no one's puppet. Almost overnight, Anna sees her dreams of power wrenched from her and bestowed on her little brother. Bitter at the betrayal, Anna waits to avenge herself, and to seize what is rightfully hers.
