AUTHOR
SUMMARY
No other woman in world history has been of such compulsive interest as Elizabeth Tudor. While the rest of the 16th-century Europe was subject to the bloodshed of religious war, Tudor peace brought England its great flowering of the arts. Central to that flowering was the enigmatic legend of the Queen herself, a myth deliberately created and sustained over four decades by public spectacle and courtly chivalry, by private sonnet and official oration.Strong, Roy is the author of 'Cult of Elizabeth : Elizabethan Portraiture and Pageantry', published 1987 under ISBN 9780520058408 and ISBN 0520058402.
