	Margaret of Navarre (Sicilian queen) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Margaret of Navarre (French: Marguerite, Spanish: Margarita) (1128 – 1183) was the queen consort of Sicily during the reign of William I (1154-1166) and the regent during the minority of her son, William II.
		She was a daughter of King García VI of Navarre and Margaret de l'Aigle.
		With this, Margaret was forced to declare her traitorous cousin Gilbert catapan of Apulia and Campania and send him to the peninsula to prepare for the coming invasion of Frederick Barbarossa.

	Margaret D'angouleme 1492-1549
		Margaret to suspect that she enjoyed all this is unavoidable replied that there was no need, " she trusted utterly in his honour, she was not angry at all ; " which last statement, at any rate, strikes one as being unmistakably accurate.
		Margaret hung back, but could not ultimately resist the wishes of the king, and though it is said she declared that she would rather have had death instead, the marriage took place at the court of Anne and Louis on October 9, 1509.
		Margaret should have known that to keep the affections of a handsome husband, over whom she possessed the disadvantage of eleven years' seniority, was anticipating the impossible.

	Memoir of Louise of Savoy, Duchess of Angoulême, and of her daughter Margaret, Queen of Navarre.
		The elder of the two was Margaret, the principal subject of this memoir, born on the 11th of April, 1492; the younger, born on the 12th of September, 1494, was the prince who succeeded Louis XII.
		Margaret took great pains to hasten the conclusion of the marriage between Francis I. and Eleonore of Austria, widow of the King of Portugal, rightly regarding that alliance as the surest means of prompt deliverance.
		Judging from several original portraits of Margaret which are preserved in the libraries of France, her last editors infer that her beauty, so much celebrated by the poets of her time, consisted chiefly in the dignity of her deportment, and the sweet and cheerful expression of her countenance.

		They were powerfully aided in their undertaking by Margaret, Queen of Navarre, who favoured both them and their ideas; she was their advocate with her brother Francis I, and, when necessary, their protectress against the Sorbonne.

		Margaret of Angoulême, consort of Henry II of Navarre.
		In 1527 she married Henri d'Albret, titular King of Navarre, who was considerably younger than herself, and whose character was not faultless, but who seems on the whole, despite slander, to have both loved and valued his wife.
		Navarre was not reconquered for the couple as Francis had promised, but ample apanages were assigned to Marguerite, and at Nérac and Pau miniature courts were kept up, which yielded to none in Europe in the intellectual brilliancy of their frequenters.

	Lowe-Evans, "The Civil Servant" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		His separate-sphere philosophy for men and women was widely argued throughout Western culture in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and Margaret Saville, both in name and in function, clearly resides in a sphere of influence separate from that of the men in the novel.
		Veeder asserts that Margaret Saville has "been seriously undervalued by critics." He further implies that Mary Shelley may have meant us to translate "Margaret" into its original Greek meaning of "pearl" (82); doing so, I would point out, renders her a cultivated adornment to society rather than an active participant in it.
		Surely it is no accident that Margaret's initials, M.W.S., are the very ones Mary anticipated acquiring for herself when she decided to introduce her story of monstrous creation with a series {34} of letters to a married woman.

		She was 10 years older than her husband and they seem to have had little in common, but the marriage produced two children: a daughter, Jeanne d'Albret, (who would become the next Queen of Navarre) and a son who died five months after his birth.
		(b) "Guilty Sisters: Marguerite de Navarre, Elizabeth of England, and the Miroir de l'ame pecheresse" (2000), by Susan Snyder, speculates on the significance of Marguerite's use of the word "sister" in her early poem (and, briefly, on Elizabeth Tudor's 1544 translation of the work).
		At times though, Navarre speaks of her contemporaries, here of those who argued that because man's passions are so strong, he is not responsible for his actions (an idea that will recur in the frame discussions of the Heptameron).
