This edition presents in English, for the first time, Jeanne
d'Albret's Letters to the king, his mother, his brother, her own
brother-in-law, and the queen of England, together with her Ample
Declaration (1568) defending her decampment to the Protestant
stronghold of La Rochelle. A historical-biographical introduction
situates these writings in the larger context of Reformation
politics and examines in detail the specific literary
characteristics of her memoir. In her works, Jeanne d'Albret
asserts her own position as legal sovereign of Bearn and Navarre
and situates herself at the nexus of overlapping political,
religious, and familial tensions.
