Abstract | This chapter analyzes the role of royal women in the organized violence of the Habsburg–Valois Wars that engulfed much of western Europe from the end of the fifteenth century to the middle of the sixteenth. It explores their participation in marriages, child-bearing, ceremonial events, and artistic and fashion display, in faith networks and diplomatic work. Although in different ways, the business of war demanded these women’s bodily, emotional, and mental labor just as it did that of elite men. |
