Abstract:
Heroic virtue is a recurrent theme in poems and panegyrics written for Queen Christina of Sweden, both before and after her abdication. This article focus on the use of heroic virtue in some poems and academic discourses dedicated to Christina, both before and after her conversion to Catholicism, taking a particular interest in its religious implications. The claim for heroicity stands as a political argument during the queen’s time in Sweden and as a programmatic position for her academy in Rome, Accademia Reale, both in its philosophical and poetical activity.

Abstract:
In 1681 the blind quietist, Francois Malaval, stated that Queen Christina of Sweden late in life had ‘given up’ [Hermes] Trismegistos and the Platonists, in favour of the Church fathers. The statement does not explain what role the Church fathers were to play in her last years, but it does show that Christina really had been interested in the rather elitist and esoteric doctrine of Hermetic Platonic Christianity. In this article the author looks at her library to show the depth of this Hermetic involvement. Her interest serves as a background to her life as ex-queen in Italy after her famous a

Kristoffer Schmidt: Ludvig Holberg and his feud with Johann Arckenholtz
 In 1751, the Swedish librarian Johann Arckenholtz published the first two volumes of his work Memoires Concernant Christine Reine de Suede. The work was mainly a panegyric defence of Queen Christina of Sweden who abdicated in 1654. Christina was a controversial figure in her own time and both contemporary and later authors criticised some of her more dubious actions. Being a fan of the Swedish queen, Arckenholtz defended his heroine vigorously and accused many of her critics of writing untruthful character assassinat

Abstract On the basis of published and unpublished sources, this paper discusses the influence that the visit made by the Austrian numismatist Joseph Eckhel (1737–1798) to Rome in 1772–3 had on the late eighteenth-century arrangement of the coin collection assembled by Queen Christina of Sweden (1626–1689), then in possession of the Odescalchi family. Furthermore, the author tries to assess the impact of this collection on the work of Eckhel, a key figure in numismatic scholarship.

Abstract:
Queen Christina of Sweden (1626-1689) utilized art in many ways to promote herself and assert power in Baroque Europe. Previous scholars have addressed either Christina’s use of art to safeguard authority as Swedish regnant, or her expressions of sovereignty as an erstwhile Protestant queen in Rome, but no scholarship to date has addressed the topic of how Christina’s patronage developed, or explored how motifs employed early on later reappeared. This dissertation brings together both sides of the equation to provide a com

Art History<br>M.A.<br>In this paper, I analyze the life and collection of Christina, Queen of Sweden (1626-1689), as a complex and shifting performance of gender, authority, and other aspects of identity. I argue that Christina’s education and life experiences actively informed her collecting preferences for certain types of mythological figures, which became an effective tool of her self-fashioning as a ruler who broke away from what she viewed as the confines and expectations of her gender. I will demonstrate how her strategies as an astute patron and collector of the arts were central to h

In his journal, Whitelocke noted down the entirety of what he was to experience during his stay in Sweden.

The first comprises a study of regulations concerning female succession in the era, highlighting the relationship between the principles of gender and consanguinuity.

Abstract:
Queen Christina of Sweden (1626-1689)--one of the most celebrated, if controversial, converts of all times--settled in the papal city after her abdication in 1654. Her palace--the Palazzo Riario (today Corsini)--became one of Rome's leading cultural institutions: a site where learned, artistic, and elite culture converged. This study examines Christina's practice of collecting, and argues that her ambition was to create a center for learning and the arts in the Palazzo Riario modeled on the ancient Musaeum of Alexandria. While Christina's importance as a patron of art and learning has long bee
