This is the first edition ever of the Queen's correspondence in
Italian. These letters cast a new light on her talents as a
linguist and provide interesting details as to her political
agenda, and on the cultural milieu of her court. This book provides
a fresh analysis of the surviving evidence concerning Elizabeth's
learning and use of Italian, and of the activity of the members of
her 'Foreign Office.' All of the documents transcribed here are
accompanied by a short introduction focusing on their content and
context, a brief description of their transmission history, and an
English translation.
