Our interdisciplinary collection of essays provides an engaging
study of how Caterina Cornaro, Queen of Cyprus (1454-1510); Queen
Elizabeth I of England (1533-1603); Mary Stuart Queen of Scots
(1542-1587); Anne of Denmark (1574-1619); and Spain's Maria Luisa
de Orleans (1662-1689) either succeeded in promoting authority and
inspiring loyalty, or, conversely, had identities shaped for them
for various political, religious, or cultural reasons. Knowledge of
material culture, and how such objects created specific gender
identities, reveals new insights into these queens' lives, as they
flourished in court, as members of their communities received them,
and as individuals appropriated and shaped their reputations during
their lives and after their deaths.
