Conclusion. 330 $aThis book examines public discussions around France's four most prominent royal women during the first and second Restoration and July Monarchy: the duchesse d?Angoulême, the duchesse de Berry, Queen of the French Marie-Amélie, and Adélaïde d?Orléans. These were the most powerful women of the last decades of the French monarchy but the new roles women were assigned in post-revolutionary France did not permit them to openly exercise political influence. This book explores continuities and variations in narratives of royal legitimacy, and how historians, authors, and politicians used national history - particularly medieval and early modern history - to either legitimize or undermine the French monarchy, and to define women's social and political roles. Heta Aali is a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Turku, Finland, and has published widely on French cultural history, nineteenth-century historiography, and medievalism. 410 0$aQueenship and Power,$x2730-9398 606 $aUpper class women$xPolitical activity$zFrance$xHistory$y19th century 607 $aFrance$xPolitics and government$y1814-1830 607 $aFrance$xPolitics and government$y1830-1848 607 $aFrance$xPolitics and government$y1848-1870 615 0$aUpper class women$xPolitical activity$xHistory 676 $a944.063 676 $a320.0820944 700 $aAali$b Heta$0979489 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484221403321 996 $aFrench Royal Women During the Restoration and July Monarchy$92233482 997 $aUNINA
