Letters of Rowland Whyte (1595-1608)

Angebote / Angebote:

Provides the first complete edition, annotated and with modernized spelling, of these important late-Elizabethan letters, written by Rowland Whyte as the personal agent and advisor at court of Robert Sidney, Viscount Lisle and first Earl of Leicester. His series of 292 surviving letters to Sidney, written between September 1595 and December 1602, were partly intended as intelligence documents, keeping Sidney fully briefed on court affairs and gossip. This edition also includes a shorter sequence of Whyte's surviving letters to Gilbert Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury, concerning the marriage of Talbot's daughter, Lady Mary, to Robert Sidney's rich and increasingly powerful nephew, William Herbert, Earl of Pembroke. A useful resource for the last years of Queen Elizabeth's reign. Illus.
