![Jese Leos](https://shelf.bccbooking.com/author/raymond-parker.jpg)
In the annals of ancient history, queens and empresses wielded immense power and influence. From the legendary Cleopatra VII of Egypt to the enigmatic Hatshepsut of Kemet, these matriarchs ruled vast realms and left behind enduring legacies. They were skilled diplomats, astute military strategists, and patrons of the arts, shaping the destiny of their nations and influencing the course of civilization.
During the Middle Ages, the lives of women were often confined by societal expectations. Yet, amidst the constraints, there were those who broke free from tradition and achieved greatness. Eleanor of Aquitaine, Queen of England and France, was renowned for her political savvy and leadership skills. Hildegard of Bingen, a mystic and visionary, wrote influential works on medicine, philosophy, and theology, challenging the intellectual boundaries of her time.
