Women monarchs in the medieval byzantine court: prejudice, disbelief and calumnies / Alexandra Karagianni -- To have and have not: the dower of Joanna Plantagenet, Queen of Sicily (1177-1189) / Colette Bowie -- The many wills of Violante de Aragon as testament to uncertainty in thirteenth-century Castilla-Leon / Melissa R. Katz -- Lost and found: visualizing a medieval queen's destroyed objects and collection / Mariah Proctor-Tiffany -- The political role of a Portuguese Queen in late fourteenth century / Isabel de Pina Baleiras -- Philippa of Lancaster: the memory of a model queen / Ana Rodrigues Oliveira -- Not lost in translation: Aragonese court culture "on tour" (1400-1480) / Zita Rohr -- Queenly time in the reign of Juan II of Castile (1406-1454) / Diana Pelaz Flores -- Princess isabel of portugal : "first lady" in a kingdom without a queen (1415-1428) / Manuela Santos Silva -- Blanca, Queen of Sicily and Queen of Navarre-connecting the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean via an Aragonese alliance / Elena Woodacre -- Consorts of Moroccan sultans; Lalla Khnata Bint Bakkar, "a woman with three kings" / Fatima Rhorchi -- The sovereign and his wife "minister": Charles Emmanuel IV and Marie Clotilde Adelaide Xaviere of France. Interpersonal and political relations between the sovereigns of Sardinia / Federica Contu -- Queenship and family dynamics through the correspondence of the Queen Maria Carolina of Naples / Cinzia Recca.

Drawing on innovative research in the rapidly growing field of Mediterranean studies, this groundbreaking collection explores the key roles that Mediterranean queens played as wives, as mothers, and above all as political actors. Taken together, they form a varied and comprehensive account of the ways in which these royal women negotiated their positions within the context of the court, how they responded to widowhood and other challenging circumstances, and reactions to queens who exercised political power in ways considered to be beyond their accepted roles. Ranging from Byzantine empresses to the consorts of Moroccan sultans to queens regnant and consort in both the Italian and Iberian peninsulas, these remarkable studies offer a bracing new perspective on the concepts and practice of queenship more generally in the medieval and Early Modern eras.
