Mid-Tudor Queenship and Memory (eBook, PDF)

The Making and Re-making of Lady Jane Grey and Mary I
Redaktion: Schutte, Valerie; Hower, Jessica S.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores (mis)representations of two female claimants to the Tudor throne, Lady Jane Grey and Mary I of England. It places Jane's attempted accession and Mary I's successful accession and reign in comparative perspective, and illustrates how the two are fundamentally linked to one another, and to broader questions of female kingship, precedent, and legitimacy. Through ten original essays, this book considers the nature and meaning of mid-Tudor queenship as it took shape, functioned, and was construed in the sixteenth century as well as its memory down to the twenty-first, in literary, musical, artistic, theatrical, and other cultural forms. Offering unique comparative insights into Jane and Mary, this volume is a key resource for researchers and students interested in the Tudor period, queenship, and historical memory.

Valerie Schutte is a specialist on Tudor queens.

Jessica S. Hower is Associate Professor of History at Southwestern University, USA.
