Description:

This collection brings together nearly all of the writings of Queen Elizabeth I from childhood letters to the prayers of her later years. The anthology reveals a leading intellect of the English Renaissance and an intimate portrait of the brilliant "Virgin Queen".

Synopsis:

This long-awaited and masterfully edited volume contains nearly all of the writings of Queen Elizabeth 1: the clumsy letters of childhood, the early speeches of a fledgling queen, and the prayers and poetry of the monarch's later years. The first collection of its kind, Elizabeth I reveals brilliance on two counts; that of the Queen a dazzling writer and a leading intellect of the English Renaissance, and that of the editors, whose copious annotations make the book not only essential to scholars but accessible to general readers as well.
