But the supreme proof of her mastery of other tongues is the sizable body of translations she made over the course of her lifetime. This two-volume set is the first complete collection of Elizabeth's translations from and into Latin, French, and Italian. Presenting original and modernized spellings in a facing-page format, these two volumes will answer the call to make all of Elizabeth's writings available. They include her renderings of epistles of Cicero and Seneca, religious writings of John Calvin and Marguerite de Navarre, and Horace's Ars poetica, as well as Elizabeth's Latin Sententiae drawn from diverse sources, on the responsibilities of sovereign rule and her own perspectives on the monarchy. Editors Janel Mueller and Joshua Scodel offer introduction to each of the translated selections, describing the source text, its cultural significance, and the historical context in which Elizabeth translated it. Their annotations identify obscure meanings, biblical and classical references, and Elizabeth's actual or apparent deviations from her sources. The translations collected here trace Elizabeth's steady progression from youthful evangelical piety to more mature reflections on morality, royal responsibility, public and private forms of grief, and the right way to rule. Elizabeth I: Translations is the queen's personal legacy, an example of the very best that a humanist education can bring to the conduct of sovereign rule. 517 3 $aTranslations 606 $aClassical literature$vTranslations 606 $aKings' and rulers' writings, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWomen and literature$zEngland$xHistory$y16th century 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yElizabeth, 1558-1603$vSources 615 0$aClassical literature 615 0$aKings' and rulers' writings, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWomen and literature$xHistory 676 $a870 676 $aB 700 $aElizabeth$cQueen of England,$f1533-1603.$0996842 701 $aMueller$b Janel$f1938-2022.$01771067 701 $aScodel$b Joshua$f1958-$01593889 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826686203321 996 $aElizabeth I$94267429 997 $aUNINA
