Abstract

Marking the 500th year anniversary of the birth of Queen Mary I in 1516, this book both commemorates her rule and rehabilitates and redefines her image and reign as England's first queen regnant. In this broad collection of essays, leading historians of queenship (or monarchy) explore aspects of Mary's life from birth to reign to death and cultural afterlife, giving consideration to the struggles she faced both before and after her accession, and celebrating Mary as a queen in her own right.

Abstract

Medieval and early modern princely courts were not only inhabited by humans, but also by a wide variety of animals. This co-presence had crucial impacts on the spatial organization, social composition, and cultural life in Europe's dynastic centers. The contributions of this volume enrich our knowledge of a long-neglected aspect of premodern court life and invite us to reconsider our basic understanding of the court, courtiers, and court society.
