Margaret of Valois
Only since the 1990s have some historians, such as Éliane Viennot, Robert J. Sealy and Kathleen Wellman, contributed to rehabilitating the image of the last Valois and to distinguishing between the historical figure of Margaret of Valois and the legend of Queen Margot. However, literary works and cinematographic works, such as "La Reine Margot" by Patrice Chéreau, continued to perpetuate the image of an obscene and lustful woman.
