Tedius and paynefull: letter writing in English royal diplomacy -- My skrating hand: the making of Elizabeth's correspondence -- Entering the stage: Elizabeth's use of letters in her first year, 1558-60 -- War of words: King Philip II of Spain, 1558-81 -- Silent diplomacy: Queen Mary I of Scotland, 1559-87 -- Marriage and motherhood: Catherine de Medici, queen mother of France, 1559-88 -- Inward and secret letters: Tsar Ivan IV of Russia, 1561-83 -- Letters full of marvels: Sultan Murad III of the Ottoman Empire 1579-90 -- Well worth a letter: King Henry IV of France, 1572-1603 -- Mine own hand: King James VI of Scotland, 1580-1603.

Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603) sent more letters into more distant kingdoms than any English monarch had before, and her exchanges with an ever-growing number of rulers reveal how shifting conceptions of sovereignty were made manifest on paper. This book examines Elizabeth's correspondence with several significant rulers, analyzing how her letters were constructed, drafted and presented, the rhetorical strategies used, and the role these letters played in facilitating diplomatic relations. Elizabeth's letters did more than authorize diplomatic action abroad: in most cases they reflected, and sometimes even influenced, the direction of foreign policy.
