Eleanor was a beautiful and strong woman of great ability, a patron o fthe arts and a master politician. She had sophisticated tastes,surrounded herself with troubadours, and founded a literary court. Herideals helped establish the idea ofromantic "courtly love."
She instigated revolt among her sons against their father Henry II, whohad Eleanor imprisoned for 16 years. After her imprisonment, Henry openly lived in adultery with his mistress "The Fair Rosamond," whom many later chroniclers claimed was mysteriously murdered by a jealous Eleanor.
After Henry II's death, Eleanor ruled as Regent, while Richard I was on crusade.
Eleanor has been immortalized by Katherine Hepburn's portrayal of her in the film, "The Lion in Winter."
Eleanor also appears as a character in Shakespeare's play KING JOHN
__________________________________
Eleanor of Poitou, Queen consort first of King Louis VII of France and then of King Henry II of England. Daughter and heiress of GuillaumeX, Duke of Aquitaine, she married Louis in 1137 shortly before his accession to the throne. She accompanied him on the Second Crusade from1147 to 1149. Eleanor bore Louis two daughters, but in 1152 theirmarriage was annulled. Soon afterward Eleanor married Henry, Duke ofNormandy and Count of Anjou, uniting her vast possessions with those ofher husband. Louis VII feared this powerful combination, and when Henry ascended the English throne in 1154, the stage was set for a long struggle between the English and French kings. Eleanor bore Henry three daughters and five sons, and two of the latter, Richard I and John,became kings of England. Because of Henry's infidelities, especially his relationship with Rosamond, Eleanor's relations with her husband grew strained, and in 1170 she established a court of her own at Poitou. She supported her sons in their unsuccessful revolt against Henry in 1173 andwas held in confinement by Henry until 1185. Her efforts helped Richardsecure the throne in 1189. While Richard was on the Third Crusade andlater held captive in Europe from 1190 to 1194, Eleanor was active in forestalling the plots against him by his brother John and in collecting the ransom for his release. She brought about a reconciliation between the two brothers, and on Richard's death in 1199 she supported John's claims to the throne over those of Arthur I of Bretagne. Eleanor's court at Poitou was the scene of much artistic activity and was noted for its cultivation of courtly manners and the concept of courtly love. She wasthe patroness of such literary figures as Wace, Benoît de Sainte-More,and Chrestien de Troyes. In literature Eleanor has appeared as the jealous murderess of the fair Rosamond, but she was apparently innocent of this crime. She was an able and strong-minded woman.
Renowned in her time for being the most beautiful woman in Europe, the wife of two Kings and mother of three, Eleanor of Aquitaine was one ofthe great heroines of the Middle Ages. At a time when women were regarded as little more than chattel, Eleanor managed to defy convention as she exercised power in the political sphere and crucial influence over her husbands and sons. Eleanor of Aquitaine was born into a Europe dominated by feudalism. In the twelfth century there was no concept of nationhood or patriotism, and subjects owed loyalty to their ruler, rather than thestate. Europe was split into principalities called feudatories, each under the rule of a king, duke, or count, and personal allegiance, orfealty, was what counted. This was expressed in the ceremony of homage, in which a kneeling vassal would place his hands between those of his overlord and swear to render him service and obedience. In this martial world dominated by men, women had little place. The Church's teachings might underpin feudal morality, yet when it came to the practicalities of life, a ruthless pragmatism often came into play. Kings and noblemen married for political advantage, and women rarely had any say in how they or their wealth were to be disposed in marriage. Upon marriage, a girl's property and rights became invested in her husband, to whom she owed absolute obedience. It is fair to say, however, that there were women who transcended the mores of society and got away with it: the evidence suggests that Eleanor of Aquitaine was one such. There were then, as now, women of strong character who ruled feudal states and kingdoms, as Eleanor did; who made decisions, ran farms and businesses, fought lawsuits, and even, by sheer force of personality, dominated theirhusbands. Poitou was the most northerly of Eleanor's feudatories: its northern border marched with those of Brittany, Anjou, and Touraine, andits chief city was Poitiers. Perched on a cliff, with impressive ramparts, this was the favourite seat of its suzerains. To the east wasthe county of Berry, and to the south the wide sweep of the duchy ofAquitaine, named "land of waters" after the great rivers that dissectedit: the Garonne, the Charente, the Creuse, the Vienne, the Dordogne, and the Vézère. The duchy also incorporated the counties of Saintonge,Angoulême, Périgord, the Limousin, La Marche, and the remote region ofthe Auvergne. In the south, stretching to the Pyrenees, was the wine-producing duchy of Gascony, or Guienne, with its bustling port ofBordeaux, and the Agenais. All these lands comprised Eleanor's inheritance. The Aquitanian lordships and their castles were controlledby often hostile and frequently feuding vassals, who paid mere lipservice to their ducal overlords and were notorious for their propensity to rebel and create disorder. These turbulent nobles enjoyed a luxuriousstandard of living compared with their unwashed counterparts in northern France, and each competed with his neighbour to establish in his castle asmall but magnificent court. Renowned for their elegance, their shavenfaces and long hair, the Aquitanian aristocracy were regarded bynortherners as soft and idle, whereas in fact they could be fierce andviolent when provoked. Self-interest was the dominant theme in theirrelations with their liege lords: successive dukes had consistently failed to subdue these turbulent lords or establish cohesion within their own domains.
The authority of the dukes of Aquitaine held good, therefore, only in theimmediate vicinities of Poitiers, their capital, and Bordeaux. Al-thoughthey claimed descent from Charlemagne and retained his effigy on the coinage of Poitou, they did not have the wealth or resources to extend their power into the feudal wilderness beyond this region, and since their military strength depended upon knight service from their unrulyvassals, they could not rely upon this. Consequently, Aquitaine laggedbehind northern France in making political and economic progress.
Nevertheless, the duchy was wealthy, thanks to its lucrative export tradein wine and salt, and it was a land in which the religious life flourished. Its rulers erected and endowed numerous fine churches and abbeys, notably the famous abbey at Cluny-"a pleasaunce of the angels"-and the Aquitanian Romanesque cathedrals in Poitiers and Angoulême,built in a style typified by elegant archways with radiating decoration and lively but grotesque sculptures of monsters and mythical creatures.

During the 1992 presidential campaign, Hillary Rodham Clinton observed, "Our lives are a mixture of different roles. Most of us are doing the best we can to find whatever the right balance is . . . For me, that balance is family, work, and service."
Hillary Diane Rodham, Dorothy and Hugh Rodham's first child, was born on October 26, 1947. Two brothers, Hugh and Tony, soon followed. Hillary's childhood in Park Ridge, Illinois, was happy and disciplined. She loved sports and her church, and was a member of the National Honor Society, and a student leader. Her parents encouraged her to study hard and to pursue any career that interested her.
As an undergraduate at Wellesley College, Hillary mixed academic excellence with school government. Speaking at graduation, she said, "The challenge now is to practice politics as the art of making what appears to be impossible, possible."
In 1969, Hillary entered Yale Law School, where she served on the Board of Editors of Yale Law Review and Social Action, interned with children's advocate Marian Wright Edelman, and met Bill Clinton. The President often recalls how they met in the library when she strode up to him and said, "If you're going to keep staring at me, I might as well introduce myself." The two were soon inseparable--partners in moot court, political campaigns, and matters of the heart.
After graduation, Hillary advised the Children's Defense Fund in Cambridge and joined the impeachment inquiry staff advising the Judiciary Committee of the House of Representatives. After completing those responsibilities, she "followed her heart to Arkansas," where Bill had begun his political career.
They married in 1975. She joined the faculty of the University of Arkansas Law School in 1975 and the Rose Law Firm in 1976. In 1978, President Jimmy Carter appointed her to the board of the Legal Services Corporation, and Bill Clinton became governor of Arkansas. Their daughter, Chelsea, was born in 1980.
Hillary served as Arkansas's First Lady for 12 years, balancing family, law, and public service. She chaired the Arkansas Educational Standards Committee, co-founded the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families, and served on the boards of the Arkansas Children's Hospital, Legal Services, and the Children's Defense Fund.
As the nation's First Lady, Hillary continued to balance public service with private life. Her active role began in 1993 when the President asked her to chair the Task Force on National Health Care Reform. She continued to be a leading advocate for expanding health insurance coverage, ensuring children are properly immunized, and raising public awareness of health issues. She wrote a weekly newspaper column entitled "Talking It Over," which focused on her experiences as First Lady and her observations of women, children, and families she has met around the world. Her 1996 book It Takes a Village and Other Lessons Children Teach Us was a best seller, and she received a Grammy Award for her recording of it.
As First Lady, her public involvement with many activities sometimes led to controversy. Undeterred by critics, Hillary won many admirers for her staunch support for women around the world and her commitment to children's issues.
She was elected United States Senator from New York on November 7, 2000. She is the first First Lady elected to the United States Senate and the first woman elected statewide in New York.
