Celebrated queens like England's Elizabeth I share equal space here with lesser-known monarchs like Giovanna I of Naples and Maria da Gloria of Portugal. The ﬂamboyant, such as Christina of Sweden, contrast with the moralistic, like Maria Theresa of Austria. Each is the heroine of an often dramatic story involving dynastic interplay and court politics. The complex forces that have impeded or sparked the royal performances are detailed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46867769360535,"sku":"9780786467372","price":2844.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780786467372.webp?v=1769987156","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/queens-empresses-grand-duchesses-and-regents-women-rulers-of-europe-a-d-1328-1989-9780786467372","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
