Early Modern Habsburg Women: Transnational Contexts, Cultural Conflicts, Dynastic Continuities, features a collection of essays investigating "the lives of six Habsburg women who, as queens consort and queen regent, duchesses, a vicereine, and a nun, left an indelible mark on the diplomatic and cultural map of early modern Europe. Contributors examine the national and transnational impact of these notable women through their biographies, and explore how they transferred their cultural, religious, and political traditions as the women moved from one court to another."

This term has been a very productive one for staff of the Department, with the publication of several articles and books. Many congratulations to everyone!
