Reihe: Queenship and Power

Marking the 500th year anniversary of the birth of
Queen Mary I in 1516, this book both commemorates her rule and rehabilitates
and redefines her image and reign as England's first queen regnant. In this
broad collection of essays, leading historians of queenship (or monarchy)
explore aspects of Mary's life from birth to reign to death and cultural
afterlife, giving consideration to the struggles she faced both before and
after her accession, and celebrating Mary as a queen in her own right.
