Originally posted by Yohan These women were executed for political reasons. Adultery was merely an excuse, and in a way, adultery against the king was considered treasonous. Anne Boleyn got her head cut off because she couldn't give Henry a boy. Actually, there was another of Henry's queen that was executed for adultery too. And I think she did sleep around. Marie Antoinette should be pretty darn obvious. She was highly unpopular among the public.

Marie Antoinnette's beheading was for a political reason, but they told the public it was adultery.

There are many other written primary sources regarding adultery and executions. I'm sure I can dig up sources if I bring my university research papers box out.

I wrote my final Major paper on this. It was the most interesting subject I've ever studied. There was so much!

I think you're missing the point.

Adultery was just an excuse, to rile up the public even more, because of Christian morality that France held. (Kinda funny, because France would become extremely secular shortly after the Revolution) And the charge of adultery was rather hypocritical, considering there was helluva a lot of sleeping around in the French society

Originally posted by ÖZmözis You're right it was because of the French Revolutions. But she was accussed and behaaded for adultery. Maybe you might want to study the depths of the French Revolution again.

Nope, I think you need to take another look. She was never charged with adultery (although she was accused of it). She was charged with stealing from the French treasury, sexually abusing her son, and orchestrating the massacre of the Swiss Guards. Ultimately, she was convicted of treason. All that said, her trial was a total sham and a miscarriage of justice, which can hardly be used as an example of the legitimate practice of law.

quote:

Yes, infact people were accussed and for adultery. Henry VIII had one of his wifes beheaded for adultery. Jeez not sure what history books you read....

Henry's second wife; Anne Boleyn was charged with Adultery, incest and treason... treason being the one she was convicted of and beheaded for.

quote:

And it doesn't matter how you look at it, beheading or getting stoned to death its still savage...

I don't approve of capital punishment in any form; however, given the choice of beheading or stoned I'd suggest that the former is far more humane.

Incorrect; his first marriage to Catharine was annulled and his third wife (Jane) died a natural death.

**Edit - sorry, you're right, Katharine was executed

What they told the public is of little consequence, the charge she was sentenced to death for was treason. Also, as I said and Yohan supports; a sham trial such as this cannot be considered the legitimate practice of law.

If you want to argue that execution for adultery was the norm then please provide some statute law.

Katherine Howard, Henry's 5th wife was charged with treason for sleeping around with her former lovers
