Description
Summary:This paper is a comparative study of the linguistic knowledge of Isabella I of Castile, Catherine of Aragon, and Mary I of England. The use of different sources will reveal how these women used their knowledge of higher culture to build strategies that gave them an advantage in their access to power. Additionally, the connection between the familiarity with these languages and the change in the understanding of female power in Castile at the end of the fifteenth century and its consequences in England in the sixteenth century will be explored.
