Abstract

Margaret Clifford (née Russell), Countess of Cumberland, wrote across a number of genres—letters, autobiography, poetry, and alchemical recipes. She was active in the court of Queen Elizabeth I. She was well respected for her intellect and served as patron to a number of religious, historical, and literary writers. Her writing reveals a keen sense of figurative language and effective rhetorical discourse of the period.
