The article presents the career of a German princess during the Thirty Year's War and examines the possibilities and the restrictions imposed on women who never came to rule. To date gender studies in Germany, when they have concerned themselves with the elite, have concentrated on examples of women in positions of power, if not regents and rulers in their own right then those women lives were led at the centre of courts as wives and dowagers. There were however a significant number of women who had their own establishments outside the confines of male rule, with which they lived in precarious balance. For a number of reasons, Anna Sophia of Brandenburg (1598 - 1659) established such a peripheral existence and the article investigates the ways in which she negotiated her position, both in a broad framework and within her own dynasty | |
