Produktbeschreibung

Through archival documents, pictorial and historical accounts, literature, and correspondence, as well as cultural artefacts such as paintings, jewellery, and garments, this volume examines the impact of Habsburg royal women in the broader historical, political, and cultural contexts of early modern Europe. Contributors explore the national and transnational aspects of both Spanish and Austrian Habsburg women through their biographies; and show how, as the women moved from one court to another, they transferred their cultural, religious, and political traditions.
