This study explores representations of the Madonna and Child in early modern culture.

Reviews for Mother Queens and Princely Sons: Rogue Madonnas in the Age of Shakespeare (Queenship and Power)
'A fascinating study that deals with an aspect of early modern Marian imagery in theatrical contexts that has not yet been explored. This work is an important contribution to the ongoing scholarly consideration of Marian theatrical invocations.' - Regina Buccola, associate professor of English, Roosevelt University, USA
