Monarchy and Matrimony is the first comprehensive study of
Elizabeth I's courtships. Susan Doran argues that the cult of the
Virgin Queen' was invented by her ministers, and that Elizabeth was
forced into celibacy by political necessity.
Doran's detailed examination of the different suits is based on
extensive archival research across Europe. Rather than focusing on
Elizabeth's personality and image, she views the question within a
wider political and religious context. She shows how the question
of Elizabeth's marriage was divisive for England, affecting both
political life and international relations, and provoking popular
propaganda in the form of plays, poetry and paintings.
