"With these fascinating essays and the printing of such an interesting source, the authors manage to rethink the term queenship as well as highlighting the role of Thomas Fleetwood in Elizabethan politics and social life." - Reviews in History "These essays offer readers Significant information for understanding this manuscript, which is an invaluable source, revealing important insights into contemporary understanding of the validity of regnant queenship. Anyone interested in Elizabeth's reign, the issues about her marriage, and the impact of her sister's rule on how she approached her own sovereignty will find this book enlightening. It is a well-written and well-structured study that contributes substantially to Elizabethan studies." Sixteenth Century Journal "This is a very useful book. To have the Itinerarium available in a modern edition is valuable and the accompanying essays are more valuable, enlightening to anyone interested in Elizabethan rhetoric, law, parliament, historiography, and the many other topics bound up in this little dialogue." - Norman Jones, Professor of History, Utah State University, USA "A very valuable work of scholarship for academics and students alike which makes accessible a rich source for our understanding of sixteenth century queenship." - Anna Whitelock, Senior Lecturer in Early Modern History, Royal Holloway-University of London, UK
