This edition presents in English, for the first time, Jeanne dAlbrets Letters to the king, his mother, his brother, her own brother-in-law, and the queen of England, together with her Ample Declaration (1568) defending her decampment to the Protestant stronghold of La Rochelle. A historical-biographical introduction situates these writings in the larger context of Reformation politics and examines in detail the specific literary characteristics of her memoir. In her works, Jeanne dAlbret asserts her own position as legal sovereign of Barn and Navarre and situates herself at the nexus of overlapping political, religious, and familial tensions.
