| Four hundred years after her death, Queen Elizabeth I remains an unusually powerful historical figure. Elizabeth I: Then and Now documents her life and reign as only the Folger Shakespeare Library® can. Published in conjunction with the exhibition "Elizabeth I: Then and Now," the catalog is as informative as it is beautiful. Critical essays and accompanying captions address a broad range of issues including the court, entertainments, Elizabeth'’s men, and the social significance of her lavish wardrobe. The perfect gift and an excellent way to enjoy this magnificent exhibition again and again. Compiled and edited by Georgianna Ziegler with a foreword by Gail Kern Paster, Director of the Folger Shakespeare Library®, and an introduction by Carole Levin. Also includes accompanying critical essays by Heidi Brayman Hackel, Peter W. M. Blayney, Janel Mueller, Sheila ffolliott and Barbara Hodgdon. |

| Smart take on one of the world's most charismatic leaders then or now. Beautiful images, lovely insights in the essays by some of the top Elizabeth I scholars. Definitely worth the investment for your own library. |
