Anne Boleyn being referred to as “exotic” in historic nonfiction books / academic papers / interviews:

“Anne Boleyn’s physical attraction lay in her exotic difference from the English concept […] [of] beauty” – Amy Licence (2017)

“[She had] an exotic edge in the English court” – Amy Licence (2017)

“In the English court she was seen as exotic and her manners and style of dress were seen as French.” – Jordyn Elizabeth Keller (2017)

“ Anne was exotic and had many admirers”  – Amanda S. Nicholson (2017)

“If you look at Anne within this context, and she was at a very impressionable age when she served Margaret of Austria and must have become familiar with Christine de Pizan, and also when she was older when she served Margaret of Navarre. I think it was this that made her stand out and seem so exotic at the English court when she came there.” – Alison Weir (2017)

“She was said to possess a delicate and attractive appearance, a vivacious personality, and exotic features since she was not brought up in the English court but rather the French to serve Queen Claude of France.” – Samia Muhareb (2010)
