Klappentext zu „Becoming a Queen in Early Modern Europe “
Queens of Poland are conspicuously absent from the study of European queenship-an absence which, together with early modern Poland's marginal place in the historiography, results in a picture of European royal culture that can only be lopsided and incomplete. Katarzyna Kosior cuts through persistent stereotypes of an East-West dichotomy and a culturally isolated early modern Poland to offer a groundbreaking comparative study of royal ceremony in Poland and France. The ceremonies of becoming a Jagiellonian or Valois queen, analysed in their larger European context, illuminate the connections that bound together monarchical Europe. These ceremonies are a gateway to a fuller understanding of European royal culture, demonstrating that it is impossible to make claims about European queenship without considering eastern Europe.

Pressezitat
"Kosior has crafted a well thought out and impeccably well-researched monograph that leaves her readers wanting more. ... This work is an approachable, groundbreaking study that should make its way onto syllabi and into the to-read lists of researchers of royal studies, women's history, courtly ceremonial, and the early modern period in general." (Courtney Herber, Royal Studies Journal, Vol. 7 (1), 2020)
