This discussion explores the very different ways in which Elizabeth I was commemorated at her passing in English and Latin texts identifies striking continuities between panegyric exploited and the iconographic languages circulating during her lifetime. In the second phase of discussion, attention turns to the ways in which English subjects envisaged the queen being remembered in the future and, indeed, how Elizabeth herself could assume the role of chief mourner for her own life.
