Conclusion.Queens of Poland are conspicuously absent from the study of European queenship—an absence which, together with early modern Poland’s marginal place in the historiography, results in a picture of European royal culture that can only be lopsided and incomplete. Katarzyna Kosior cuts through persistent stereotypes of an East-West dichotomy and a culturally isolated early modern Poland to offer a groundbreaking comparative study of royal ceremony in Poland and France. The ceremonies of becoming a Jagiellonian or Valois queen, analysed in their larger European context, illuminate the connections that bound together monarchical Europe. These ceremonies are a gateway to a fuller understanding of European royal culture, demonstrating that it is impossible to make claims about European queenship without considering eastern Europe.Queenship and Power,2730-9398EuropeHistory1492-World historyFeminismFeminist theoryHistory of Early Modern EuropeWorld History, Global and Transnational HistoryRussian, Soviet, and East European HistoryHistory of FranceFeminism and Feminist TheoryRussiaHistoryEurope, EasternHistorySoviet UnionHistoryFranceHistoryEuropeHistory1492-.World history.Feminism.Feminist theory.History of Early Modern Europe.World History, Global and Transnational History.Russian, Soviet, and East European History.History of France.Feminism and Feminist Theory.321.609252094943.8023Kosior Katarzynaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1227523BOOK9910483071103321Becoming a Queen in Early Modern Europe2850059UNINA
