Anchoresses

Definition: The term "anchoress" comes from Old French, meaning someone who seduces a person for love or money rather than for truth or truthfulness. A particularly famous example is the case of Queen Anne Boleyn, an Anchoress who was convicted and executed in 1536. She was accused of having been a "lady-adjoint" to King Henry VIII of England, a charge that led to her being sentenced to death for seduction. In modern times, "anchoresses" refers to those who use their charm or influence to persuade others to do things they would not otherwise do, often in return for money or other benefits.
