The Visionary Queen argues that sixteenth-century noblewoman Marguerite de Navarre is more than a French author, political figure, or non-schismatic religious reformer. She is a visionary, as demonstrated in her efforts to better society, especially for women, in her literary writings (notably the Heptaméron), in her writings’ responses to her male contemporaries, and in the symbolism of the labyrinth reflected in her life and works.
