Popis: Elizabeth I of England (1558-1603) was one of the most important key figures of English and later British identity. Even to the present day she is looked on as an embodiment of national splendor. In this volume, the author uses the example of Elizabeth I to study how individual historical persons come to be viewed as timeless, larger-than-life models. She includes in her study die communicative prerequisites of such a process as well as the relationship between schemes of political interpretation, actors and actions. This creates new perspectives from communication and the history of culture and combines them with classical questions from political history.
