Few historical figures have continued to captivate attention for centuries after their death as has Queen Isabel I of Castile. Yet the realities of Isabel’s life and works are obscured by the legacy of a persona carefully crafted by Isabel and a cadre of historians in her employ or that of her successors, who recognized the benefits of an image of benevolence and piety. This volume includes original essays that examine the world into which Isabel was born; the public and private facets of her marriage and reign; her intervention in the areas of religion, medicine, the arts, and the reform of political, social and economic institutions; and the construction of her image in literary and historical works from the fifteenth century onward.

The Queen who shaped the music, literature, architecture, and painting of late medieval Spain. This multidisciplinary volume was inspired by the quincentenary of the death of Queen Isabel I of Castile, early modern Europe's first powerful queen regnant. Comprising work by distinguished art historians, musicologists, historians, and literary scholars from England, Spain, and the United States, it begins with a theoretical examination of medieval queenship itself that argues - against the grain of the volume - for its inseparability from kingship. Several essays examine the complex ways in which the Queen and her advisers shaped the music, literature, architecture, and painting of fifteenth-century Spain and how these in turn shaped the sovereign's power and persona. Others analyze influences on Isabel's reign from Aragón, Portugal, and northern Europe. A third group deals with issues of periodization, arguing from a variety of perspectives for the modernity of Isabelline culture. The evolving construction of Isabel's image from the mid-fifteenth to the late-twentieth century is also studied. BARBARA WEISSBERGER is Associate Professor Emerita of Spanish and Portuguese at the University of Minnesota.

Mexican Gothic meets Rebecca in this debut supernatural suspense novel, set in the aftermath of the Mexican War of Independence, about a remote house, a sinister haunting, and the woman pulled into their clutches... During the overthrow of the Mexican government, Beatriz’s father was executed and her home destroyed. When handsome Don Rodolfo Solórzano proposes, Beatriz ignores the rumors surrounding his first wife’s sudden demise, choosing instead to seize the security that his estate in the countryside provides. She will have her own home again, no matter the cost. But Hacienda San Isidro is not the sanctuary she imagined. When Rodolfo returns to work in the capital, visions and voices invade Beatriz’s sleep. The weight of invisible eyes follows her every move. Rodolfo’s sister, Juana, scoffs at Beatriz’s fears—but why does she refuse to enter the house at night? Why does the cook burn copal incense at the edge of the kitchen and mark the doorway with strange symbols? What really happened to the first Doña Solórzano? Beatriz only knows two things for certain: Something is wrong with the hacienda. And no one there will save her. Desperate for help, she clings to the young priest, Padre Andrés, as an ally. No ordinary priest, Andrés will have to rely on his skills as a witch to fight off the malevolent presence haunting the hacienda and protect the woman for whom he feels a powerful, forbidden attraction. But even he might not be enough to battle the darkness. Far from a refuge, San Isidro may be Beatriz’s doom.

Conocida como la Reina Virgen por su negativa a contraer matrimonio, Isabel I ha pasado a la historia como una gobernante implacable. Margaret George, en este relato a dos voces, desmonta el mito del Isabel I como mujer fría y desapasionada al descubrirnos el perfil más íntimo y, hasta cierto punto, desconocido, de quien sería la última Tudor. Isabel I de Inglaterra, imponente en su papel de soberana, desplegó una acción política sin precedentes en la Europa del siglo XVI. La reina protestante se enfrentó a católicos y calvinistas en su país y en buena parte de los estados vecinos; se midió con María Estuardo y Felipe II, a quienes se impuso con inteligencia y valentía, al tiempo que desbarataba un complot contra su persona y armaba un gran ejército. En su lecho de muerte repasa las gestas por las que fue temida y reverenciada, pero entre sus recuerdos también hay lugar para sus seres queridos, como su fiel servidor Walsingham o su amante, Robert Dudley, caído en la batalla contra la Armada Invencible. Mucho tiempo después, Lettice, la esposa legítima de Dudley, cuenta a sus nietos, conmovida y sin rencor, la historia de la gran reina. Conocida como la Reina Virgen por su negativa a contraer matrimonio, Isabel I ha pasado a la historia como una gobernante implacable. Margaret George, en este relato a dos voces, desmonta el mito de Isabel I como mujer fría y desapasionada al descubrirnos el perfil más íntimo y, hasta cierto punto, desconocido de quien sería la última Tudor. La crítica ha dicho... «Al igual que su heroína, George tiene especial sensibilidad para la belleza y una gran habilidad en el tratamiento de los detalles; así crea una historia vibrante que permite a los lectores sentir que son testigos directos de las decisiones, los triunfos y las derrotas de la reina Isabel.» Publishers Weekly «El magistral conocimiento que tiene George de esta época y su certeza al investigar los vericuetos de la política isabelina hacen de ésta una novela que nunca decae.» Booklist

Queen Isabel of Castile is perhaps best known for her patronage of Christopher Columbus and for the religious zeal that led to the Spanish Inquisition, the waging of holy war, and the expulsion of Jews and Muslims across the Iberian peninsula. In this sweeping biography, newly revised and annotated to coincide with the five-hundredth anniversary of Isabel's death, Peggy K. Liss draws upon a rich array of sources to untangle the facts, legends, and fiercely held opinions about this influential queen and her decisive role in the tumultuous politics of early modern Spain. Isabel the Queen reveals a monarch who was a woman of ruthless determination and strong religious beliefs, a devoted wife and mother, and a formidable leader. As Liss shows, Isabel's piety and political ambition motivated her throughout her life, from her earliest struggles to claim her crown to her secret marriage to King Fernando of Aragón, a union that brought success in civil war, consolidated Christian hegemony over the Iberian peninsula, and set the stage for Spain to become a world empire.
