Mary Stuart

Japanese: メアリー・スチュアート(英語表記)Mary Stuart
Mary Stuart
1542‐87
Queen of Scots. Reigned 1542-67. Lifelong rival of Queen Elizabeth I of England. She ascended to the throne at just one week after her birth when her father, King James V, died. In 1548, at the age of six, she was engaged to the Dauphin of France and travelled to France, where she was educated at the royal court and grew into a beautiful and charming woman. She married the Dauphin in 1558. Her husband ascended to the throne as Francis II the following year, but he died of illness a year later, so she returned to Scotland in 1561. At the time in Scotland, factional conflicts among the nobility were extremely fierce, combining with feuds between Protestants and Catholics, and between pro-English and pro-French factions.
