Widowed in 1498, Anne returns to Brittany and briefly resumes the authority denied to her during Charles VIII’s reign. The new king, Louis XII, must first secure the annulment of his existing marriage before he can fulfil the agreement that will make Anne queen of France for a second time.
Their marriage joins affection, political necessity and continuing disagreement over Brittany’s future. While France intervenes in Milan and Naples, papal diplomacy and figures such as Cesare Borgia and Niccolò Machiavelli draw Anne and Louis deeper into the dangerous politics of Renaissance Italy.
