Edited by Estelle Paranque, Nate Probasco, and Claire Jowitt
Queenship and Power Series editors Charles Beem University of North Carolina Pembroke NC, USA Carole Levin University of Nebraska–Lincoln Lincoln NE, USA
This series focuses on works specializing in gender analysis, women’s studies, literary interpretation, and cultural, political, constitutional, and diplomatic history. It aims to broaden our understanding of the strategies that queens—both consorts and regnants, as well as female regents—pursued in order to wield political power within the structures of male-dominant societies. The works describe queenship in Europe as well as many other parts of the world, including East Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Islamic civilization.
