  • John Bale's Prefaces to Anne Askew's Examinations
    Framing the Reformation Woman Writer: John Bale’s Prefaces to Anne Askew’s Examinations Patricia Pender As a site in which the cultural meanings of female authorship are contested and negotiated, the preface is a key feature of the authorial apparatus that introduces the woman writer to her early modern reading public. John Bale’s prefaces to The Examinations of Anne Askew (1546/7) articulate a strident defence of Askew’s Reformist convictions, positioning her as an exemplary martyr in a ‘primitive’, proto-Protestant English tradition. Providing historical precedent and scriptural justification for both Askew’s authorship and his own role as editor, Bale’s prefaces provide valuable insights into the ways women’s writing was produced, framed, circulated, and promoted for its earliest print audiences. Spatially, formally, and historically, the preface occupies a unique role in the apparatus of authorship. Over the past thirty years, developments in the material history of the book, in formalist literary analysis, and in critical theory have championed the preface as a crucial component of the printed book, as a primary site for authorial self-fashioning, and as a location that most clearly marks and yet also problematizes the complex relationship between text and paratext. In early modern literary studies, these developments have revivified interest in a genre previously neglected as marginal, and renewed attention to the preface’s multiple roles in the production, transmission, and reception of early modern texts.1 In its focus on the preface, this article 1 Wendy Wall’s The Imprint of Gender: Authorship and Publication in the Renaissance (Chicago: Chicago University Press, 1993) offers a fascinating exploration of the preface’s role in negotiating the early modern stigma of print, elaborating allegories of reading and writing, and encoding the erotics of the commodified book.

  • Matrimony and Monarchy: the Failure of Bourbon-Habsburg Matrimonial Alliance
    Matrimony and Monarchy: The Failure of Bourbon-Habsburg Matrimonial Alliance Dr Samra Sarfraz Khan* Irum Iqbal Hussain** Abstract The research paper titled “Matrimony and Monarchy: The Failure of Bourbon-Habsburg Matrimonial Alliance,” is an in depth study of the matrimonial alliance between the Bourbon and Habsburg dynasties through the marriage of Louis XIV; the King of France, with the Spanish hieress Maria Theresa. This matrimonial alliance, which was arranged to start a new era of Franco-Spanish relations in the seventeenth century, was one of the many similar examples that had been followed in state craft from the earliest times. The paper serves a two-fold purpose: to bring to light the unsuccessful nature of this marriage, and to probe the various reasons for which the alliance was a failure in the very quintessence of a marriage. The paper highlights the factors that contributed in not only keeping the matrimonial alliance into a contentious relationship between Maria Theresa and Louis XIV but also in causing a decline in the political ties between the French and Spanish kingdoms. The research paper, thus, caters to an aspect in the study of matrimonial alliances that remains largely unexplored. Keywords: Matrimonial alliance, Bourbon, Hapsburg, monarch, expansion. * Samra Sarfraz Khan, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Department of History, University of Karachi ** Irum Iqbal Hussain, Graduate Student, Institute of Ismaili Studies (IIS), UK 15 Jhss, Vol. 10, No. 2, July to December, 2019 Introduction The matrimonial alliance of Louis XIV and Maria Theresa was one in a series of similar state alliances that took place between the Bourbon and Habsburg royal families in their days of glory days.

  • 1593-1610 Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State
    379 THE CATHOLIC HENRI IV AND THE PAPACY 1593-1610 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of I MASTER OF ARTS By William Jackson Fling, III, B. A. Denton, Texas August, 1977 I/7 Fling, William J., III, The Catholic Henri IV and the Papacy 1593-1610. Master of Arts (History), August, 1977, 130 pp., bibliography, 40 titles. This study explores Franco-Papal relations, and their effect on the French Church and State, from Henri IV's conver- sion to Roman Catholicism in 1593 until his death in 1610. Because Henri IV's primary concern, even in matters involving the Papacy or the Gallican Church, was to protect his kingdom from Habsburg encroachment, he was willing either to abandon his Protestant allies abroad, or to adopt reform measures, such as the decrees of the Council of Trent, that might weaken his own authority or disturb the peace of his kingdom. This caused repeated conflicts with the Counter-Reformation Popes Clement VIII and Paul V, to whom the primary enemy was always the infidel and the heretic. Nevertheless both sides realized that they needed each other to maintain their independence of Spain. TABLE OF CONTENTS Page INTRODUCTION ................ .*................. 1 Chapter I.

  • A Meditation of a Penitent Sinner and the Problem of Ascription
    This is a pre-publication draft of this article and should not be used for citation purposes. Deirdre Serjeantson [email protected] Anne Lock’s anonymous friend: A meditation of a penitent sinner and the problem of ascription Christopher Goodman lived most of his adult life on the wrong side of prevailing orthodoxies. At the accession of Queen Mary, Goodman was the Lady Margaret professor of divinity at Oxford: finding himself out of sympathy with the state’s reversion to Catholicism, he went into exile on the continent. He joined his English co-religionists at Frankfurt in 1554, but when the congregation quarrelled over the use of the 1552 Prayer Book, Goodman was one of the faction which could not be reconciled, and he left for Calvin’s Geneva in 1555. In that more congenial atmosphere he wrote his 1558 treatise, How superior powers ought to be obeyed , which, like John Knox’s notorious First blast of the trumpet against the monstrous regiment of women (1558), argued against the legitimacy of female monarchs. The books were primarily motivated by their opposition to the rule of Queen Mary, who was disqualified, they argued, for reasons of religion as well as gender. Their comments were ill- timed, coinciding as they did with Mary’s death and the coronation of another queen. For all that Goodman had praised her – a ‘Godlie Lady, a[n]d meke Lambe, voyde of all Spanishe pride, and strange bloude’ (Mary, by contrast, was an ‘vngodlie serpent’) – Elizabeth took a dim view of both books. 1 Her religious views may have been more acceptable to the authors, but their attack on female monarchy appears to have gravely offended her: in June 1559, William Cecil, writing from the Court, reported that ‘Of all others, Knoxees name, if it be not Goodmans, is most odiose here.’ 2 Prudently, both men established themselves in Scotland on their return from Geneva; however, when the earl of Moray’s rebellion in 1565 forced Goodman to seek office in territories controlled by Elizabeth, he was to find his advancement implacably blocked.

  • Las Memorias De María Mancini: Estrategias Y Alianzas De Una Mujer En La Corte De Carlos II*
    TIEMPOS MODERNOS 33 (2016/2) ISSN: 1699-7778 Las memorias de María Mancini Mª Ángeles Sobaler Seco Las Memorias de María Mancini: estrategias y alianzas de una mujer en la corte de Carlos II* M.ª Ángeles SOBALER SECO Universidad de Valladolid1 Resumen: Analizamos en este trabajo las Memorias de María Mancini como un ejercicio de madurez individual, reflejo de la responsabilidad y la habilidad personal propia, como dama de la corte madrileña. Al relato de los acontecimientos y decisiones que pautaron su vida, y la búsqueda de la justificación personal, se suma en el discurso otro objetivo trascendental e inmediato: conmover y atraerse el apoyo de los nobles e influyentes personajes que se impusieron en la inestable corte de Carlos II, coincidiendo con el advenimiento de Juan José de Austria. Inundadas de personajes y situaciones, estas memorias construyen un retrato personal paralelo al de la propia corte madrileña, y los personajes y situaciones aludidos ocupan su espacio para definirse en relación con la autora y con las pulsiones políticas. Con ello, María define su propia posición, y la de su entorno de amistades y aliados; trata de preservar las garantías oportunas para sus intereses particulares, y los del linaje al que pertenecía. Palabras clave: Maria Mancini, Memorias, corte, Madrid, XVII. Abstract: The analysis of Marie Manicini’s Memories shows a text loaded with intentionality; an exercise of responsability and personal strategy made by a lady of the court. It is not just account of her life or about the justification of her decisions. Throughout the text a more transcendental and immediate objective is revealed: to gain the support of the influential personages of the court of Madrid.

Handledare Henrik Widmark! Ventileringstermin: Höstterm. (år) Vårterm. (år) Sommartermin (år) 2021 Innehåll: This essay is a study of a suite of six small-scale equestrian portraits in the Skokloster Castle Collection. The suite represents aristocratic women at the court of Louis XIV. In the portraits, the equestriennes and their horses performe advanced dressage movements. In the 17th Century the advanced dressage riding, performed in l’art du manège, was a masculine sphere. The equestrian portraits in the Skokloster suite therefore evoke questions regarding early modern female horse- and riding culture. How do we read these equestrian portraits today? In the analysis I focus on what the horses and riders do. I discuss La Querelle des femmes and how earlymodern French elite women would search for a new female role. Horseriding would open up for a possibility for women to
