Queen Elizabeth I ascended to the throne in 1558 and
ruled until her death in 1603, presiding over the Golden Age of England. The appearance of a female
ruler in a patriarchal society precipitated a
re-imagining of female rule, both in political theory
and on the stage. Investigating a range of
Renaissance drama and poetry as well as the writings
of the queen herself, this book examines the impact
of Queen Elizabeth I upon representations of Women in
Power in Early Modern Literature. Chapter One is a
study of the hitherto neglected poetry of Queen
Elizabeth I. The themes of female desire, masculine
identity and political power are examined in
Christopher Marlowe s Dido, Queen of Carthage (1594)
and John Webster s The Duchess of Malfi (1613) in
Chapter Two.The book concludes with an investigation
into literary representations of cross-dressing in
William Shakespeare, Philip Sidney and Edmund Spenser
in Chapter Three. This study will benefit a reader
interested generally in Renaissance literature and in
issues of gender, female identity and politics more
specifically.
