Description

Queens Consort, Cultural Transfer and European Politics examines the role that foreign queens consort played at their marital courts between 1550 and 1750, the extent to which they brought a foreign culture, and whether they were agents of cultural transfer. The chapters address different types of cultural manifestation, among them collecting, portraiture, libraries, theatre and festivals, learning, genealogical literature and architecture.The volume significantly shifts the direction of scholarship by moving beyond a focus on individual historical women to consider queens consort as a category, making it valuable reading for scholars of early modern gender and political history.
