Description

Women and Power at the French Court, 1483-1563 examines how women at the early sixteenth-century French court wielded influence across multiple roles-as consorts, regents, mistresses, factional power players, and patrons. This scholarly collection spans the reigns of Charles VIII to Henri II, exploring how women advanced individual, familial, and factional agendas within one of Renaissance Europe's most influential centres. Drawing on gender studies and political history, the book provides fresh insight into the complex dynamics of power at court during a transformative period in French history. Published by Amsterdam University Press and distributed by Routledge, this volume contributes essential perspectives to early modern European scholarship.
