Household Accounts and Disbursement Books of Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester: Volume 6
Robert Dudley, the first Earl of Leicester, was a leading figure at the court of Elizabeth I, and this book presents a scholarly edition of both his two surviving household accounts (from 1558 to 1581), and the fragments of his disbursement books (from 1584 to 1586). The work also includes an appendix of those lists of household servants that have survived. This is the only collection of such information available for such a prominent member of the Elizabethan court, and as such provides numerous valuable insights into the personal finances of members of the Elizabethan aristocracy. It will thus be essential reading for any serious scholar of the high politics of the Elizabethan period.
The White Bear
This finely balanced biography of Robert Dudley places him as a pivotal figure in Elizabethan England, setting the record straight about his record as soldier, statesman, comrade, and companion to Elizabeth I, as well as an inspired patron of the arts.
