Analysis of varied primary sources, such as as a letter from Anne
to her half-brother and an apothecary bill that contains some
fertility medicines, allows for a more in-depth and nuanced
understanding of how Anne operated her life as well as the wider
setting of the court. Much previous scholarship has focused on
Anne's relatiosnhips with famous poets, such as Geoffrey Chaucer,
but analysis of government documents reveals more about how Anne
used her own wealth and status to enact power. This gives greater
insight into the power of queenship and female autonomy. Rather
than viewing Anne primarily as a wife of Richard II, this volume
situates her within the context of medieval queenship which will be
useful for all who seek a greater understanding of female power in
medieval England.
