Carole Levin and Charles Beem,
editors
This series invites proposals from scholars specializing in
gender analysis, women’s studies, literary interpretation, and
cultural, political, constitutional, and diplomatic history. It
aims to broaden our understanding of the strategies that
queens—both consorts and regnants, as well as female
regents—pursued in order to wield political power within the
structures of male dominant societies.
