Opis

This collection of essays re-examines the extraordinary artistic and cultural responses to Prince Henry (1594-1612) and presents many new findings in the context of recent scholarship. The investment of great hopes in Prince Henry and the extreme importance attached to the creation of a fitting image for himeven to its posthumous developmentindicate that Early-modern society regarded its leaders very differently from our own.
