Captains, Kings, Queens: Politics, Piracy, and the Sea in Middleton's The Phoenix (c. 1603-04). 330 $aThis collection brings together essays examining the international influence of queens, other female rulers, and their representatives from 1450 through 1700, an era of expanding colonial activity and sea trade. As Europe rose in prominence geopolitically, a number of important women?such as Queen Elizabeth I of England, Catherine de Medici, Caterina Cornaro of Cyprus, and Isabel Clara Eugenia of Austria?exerted influence over foreign affairs. Traditionally male-dominated spheres such as trade, colonization, warfare, and espionage were, sometimes for the first time, under the control of powerful women. This interdisciplinary volume examines how they navigated these activities, and how they are represented in literature. By highlighting the links between female power and foreign affairs, Colonization, Piracy, and Trade in Early Modern Europe contributes to a fuller understanding of early modern queenship. 410 0$aQueenship and Power,$x2730-9398 606 $aEurope$xHistory$x1492- 606 $aImperialism 606 $aIdentity politics 606 $aGreat Britain$xHistory 606 $aSocial history 606 $aHistory of Early Modern Europe 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism 606 $aPolitics and Gender 606 $aHistory of Britain and Ireland 606 $aSocial History 615 0$aEurope$xHistory$x1492-. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 0$aIdentity politics. 615 0$aGreat Britain$xHistory. 615 0$aSocial history. 615 14$aHistory of Early Modern Europe. 615 24$aImperialism and Colonialism. 615 24$aPolitics and Gender. 615 24$aHistory of Britain and Ireland. 615 24$aSocial History. 676 $a321.609252094 702 $aParanque$b Estelle$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aProbasco$b Nate$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aJowitt$b Claire$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254773903321 996 $aColonization, Piracy, and Trade in Early Modern Europe$91935942 997 $aUNINA
