Title: The Queens Regnant of Navarre : Succession, Politics, and Partnership, 1274-1512
Author: Woodacre, Elena
Price: Not Available
ISBN: 9781137339140
Description: London: Palgrave Macmillan, 2013. 24cm., hardcover, 267pp. Summary: The five reigning queens of Navarre comprise the largest set of female sovereigns in a single European realm during the Middle Ages. However, the lives and careers of these women are largely unknown beyond the region and have never been investigated as a group or in the context of female rule. This survey of Navarre's queens finally fills this scholarly lacuna by focusing on issues of female succession, matrimonial politics, agency, patronage, and the power-sharing dynamic between the queens and their male consorts. It also highlights the importance of Navarre to major political events of the era and traces these queens' connections to other female European rulers, including Isabel of Castile and Giovanna II of Naples. (Queenship and Power)
