- Description
- Dit boek is eenoverkoepelende studie van de verhouding tussen het koningshuis en de koloniën in Oost en West. De auteur laat zien welke rol de vorsten door de eeuwen heen in de overzeese gebieden hebben gespeeld, waar de loyaliteit met de Oranjes in de koloniën vandaan kwam, en wat die op dit moment nog waard is.Ook worden de verschillen tussen enerzijds Indie en anderzijds de Antillen en Suriname, in onder meer Oranjegevoel en in vormen van postkoloniale wrok, helder uiteengezet. Mythes zoals de betrokkenheid van koning Willem III bij de afschaffing van de slavernij (1863) worden ontzenuwd.

- Description
- Aristocratic women exerted unprecedented political and social influence in Florence throughout the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries. These women also helped shape the city's artistic life, commissioning works of music, art, and theater that were inscribed with their own concerns and aspirations. This book examines the patronage of individuals and institutions. The author argues that the female domination of these years brought forth artistic patronage that was both continuous and well-conceived.

- Description
- The author offers an account of the texts, pictures, and performances in which Queen Elizabeth (1558-1603) was represented to her people, her court, foreign powers and to herself. He describes the representation of Elizabeth within the traditions of Tudor dynastic portraiture: the symbolic manipulation of Elizabeth’s body by both supporters and enemies of her regime and argues how Elizabeth’s advancing age provided new occasions for misogynistic subversions of her royal charisma.

- Description
- 'Women in England in the Middle Ages' looks at 'all sorts and conditions' of women from c.500 to c.1500 A.D., concentrating on common experiences over their life-cycle, as daughters, wives and mothers, and the contrasts derived from their position in the social hierarchy. Most women lived out their lives in their own village or town, but queens and noblewomen exercised power and patronage locally and at the royal court. Religion played a significant part in women's lives: some became nuns and abbesses, while the majority were involved in their own parish and community. Inevitably, women's lives changed over time, but, in bringing up their children and balancing family and work, medieval women faced many of the problems of their modern counterparts.
