Review'A rich and rewarding collection of essays.'Renaissance Quarterly'Complex and intriguing portraits of female sovereigns. . . . a deidealized, yet nonmisogynistic picture of female sovereignty in the early modern era.'Feminist Formations'This valuable collection of theoretically engaged and empirically grounded essays greatly broadens scholarly understanding of late medieval and early modern women and rulership in Europe, shifting the focus from the masculinist politicalreligious discussion to a feminine perspective.'Theresa Earenfight, editor of Queenship and Political Power in Medieval and Early Modern SpainProduct DescriptionThis collection brings a transnational perspective to the study of early modern women rulers and female sovereignty, a topic that has until now been examined through the lens of a single nation. Contributors juxtapose rulers from different countries, including wellknown sovereigns such as Isabel of Castile and Elizabeth Tudor, as well as other less widely studied figures Isabeau of Bavaria, Jeanne d'Albret, Isabel Clara Eugenia, Juana of Portugal, and Catherine of Brandenburg. Several essays also focus on the representations of foreign rulers such as Catherine de' Medici in England and Elizabeth I in France.Contributors are Tracy Adams, Anne J. Cruz, va Dek, Mary C. Ekman, Catherine L. Howey, Elizabeth Ketner, Carole Levin, Sandra Logan, Magdalena S. Snchez, Mihoko Suzuki, and Barbara F. Weissberger.About the AuthorAnne J.
