A mirror for the princess?: Advice books and the debate on women -- Politics and gender in the fight for Castile -- Legitimizing the Queen: Isabel the Catholic and the Poncella de Francia -- The transparent mirror: the application for justice in the Diálogo del prudente rey y el sabio aldeano -- The fractured portrait, a cracked mirror of ideals.
Isabel I's reign in Castile responds to the ostensible needs expressed throughout the fifteenth-century for moral and political regeneration. Isabel is seen in many works as a just and wise monarch, as a redeemer of her people, and as a divine sovereign. This book reviews changes in the gendered construction of Isabelline sovereignty from the theoretical perspective of the speculum principum dedicated to her. It offers a Bourdieuian approach to the more literary specula texts used to legitimize and uphold Isabel's power.
