From celebrated portraits of the Queen and paintings of knights and courtiers, to works depicting an aspiring ‘middle class’, Strong presents a detailed and authoritative examination of one of the most fascinating periods of British art. Enriching previous perceptions and ways of seeing the Elizabethans in their world, he reveals an age parallel in many ways to our own — a country aspiring professionally and changing socially. The gaze is from the inside, capturing the knights, melancholy lovers, poets (including Sidney, Donne and Sir John Davies), court favourites and their ‘Gloriana’—as they mirrored and made themselves. Beginning with the great portrait of the Queen in grand procession with her Garter Knights, Strong pinpoints the characters and key motifs that run through the rest of the book: chivalry, changes to the social order, emblems and imagery – the full richness of the Elizabethan imagination. These pictures were intimate — personal commissions by private individuals, and not necessarily for public view. As such they are a glimpse into private worlds and sentiments and speak eloquently for the people who paid for, painted and lived amongst them, reversing an academic tendency to treat the portraits as if they had a life of their own, not grounded by the real people who commissioned them. Roy Strong concludes this richly illustrated volume with the famous and complex Rainbow Portrait, unpicking the iconography of this final painting of an ageless Elizabeth in her ‘Mask of Youth’. Within a year of its completion the queen was dead—her portraits increasingly demoted and replaced by Mary Stuart’s — as the splendour of the Elizabethan age and ‘the cult of the queen’ made way for new monarch James VI, who was to rule over a united England and Scotland

Über Jahrhunderte hinweg pflegte die in mehreren west- und zentraleuropäischen Ländern reich begüterte Adelsfamilie Arenberg ein Naheverhältnis zum Haus Habsburg. Der Band untersucht die wechselseitigen Verbindungen dieser hochadeligen Familie mit der Habsburgermonarchie auf unterschiedlichen Ebenen und im internationalen Kontext. Die Adelsfamilie Arenberg besaß zahlreiche Güter in der Eifel, den Niederlanden, insbesondere den südlichen Niederlanden, später auch in Reichsitalien, und der Habsburgermonarchie sowie in Frankreich, Hannover und Preußen. Über Jahrhunderte stand sie in enger Beziehung zum Haus Habsburg. Der Fokus des Bandes richtet sich zum einen auf die Präsenz der Arenberg an den habsburgischen Höfen in Wien und Brüssel sowie im habsburgischen Militärdienst, zum anderen auf ihre Rolle in der Vermittlung habsburgischer Herrschaft vor allem in den Österreichischen Niederlanden. Dabei stellt sich die Frage nach Strategien der Macht- und Statusabsicherung sowie des Aufstiegs einer transterritorialen Familie, die lange in den Grenzregionen mehrerer Großreiche – neben der Habsburgermonarchie auch des Heiligen Römischen Reichs und Frankreichs – angesiedelt war. Darüber hinaus widmen sich einige Beiträge dem Leben und Werdegang von Arenberger Frauen, die in der Familienerinnerung weitgehend der Vergessenheit bzw. Diffamierung anheimfielen.

"'Tableau Poetique' is een tot voor kort onbekende tekst van de Gentse schilder-dichter Lucas d'Heere (1534-1584). Recent werd hij echter in een Engelse adellijke bibliotheek herontdekt door Frederica Van Dam. Het unieke handschrift bevat een reeks Franse gedichten, hoofdzakelijk sonnetten, gericht tot leden van de Engelse politieke elite in de periode 1569-1572. De collectie is zowel historisch als literair uiterst belangrijk. D'Heere blijkt in de hoogste Engelse kringen veel nadrukkelijker werkzaam geweest te zijn dan tot nu toe werd vermoed. Zijn politieke rol in de Nederlandse Opstand moet dan ook geherwaardeerd worden. In deze uitgave situeert Frederica Van Dam de dichtende schilder Lucas d'Heere in het zestiende-eeuwse Engeland, daarna volgt een geannoteerde teksteditie van het volledige handschrift door Werner Waterschoot. 'Tableau Poetique', dat een onmisbare schakel vormt in de evolutie van het sonnet als dichtvorm binnen de Nederlandse literatuur, wordt met deze uitgave voor het eerst beschikbaar gemaakt."--Back cover.
