The Lives of the Queens of England is a multi-volumed work attributed to Agnes Strickland, though it was mostly researched and written by her sister Elisabeth. These volumes give biographies of the queens of England from the Norman Conquest in 1066. Although by today's standards it is not seen as a very scholarly work, the Stricklands used many sources that had not been used before. Volume eleven includes the biographies of Mary II (joint sovereign with William III), from her coronation in 1689 to her death in 1695, and Anne, through 1700.Copyright Biographies Genre アート 文学史・文学批評 社会科学
