The infamous words added by King Edward VI to his last will and testament ‘/ and her’ unexpectedly thrust the 15-year-old Jane Grey onto the throne of England for a mere 9 days. Yet, amidst the annals of history, her cousin of equal age, Jane Lumley, remains largely obscure. However, Lumley is the authoress of the earliest known English translation of Iphigenia at Aulis, a play about the martyrdom of a young girl to her state. Join us as we delve into the power of language to redefine destinies in the midst of England's turbulent religious revolution.
