“…Al mismo tiempo, y debido a que eran hermanos, recibieron una dispensa del arzobispo de Lima para poder contraer matrimonio cristiano (Cobo, 1892: 213). Como apunta Earenfight (2007), a las mujeres de la realeza rara vez se las nombra solas, se las asocia con adjetivos como "reina regente". En el caso de María de Austria y Portugal, estos modificadores señalan el rango y la variedad de las prácticas del poder real.…”

Este texto se acerca a los documentos de archivo, textos e imágenes más relevantes que se relacionan con María Cusi Huarcay Coya, Beatriz Clara Coya y Ana María Coya. Estas coyas o reinas incas ejercieron el poder de su linaje en el virreinato del Perú entre la segunda mitad del siglo XVI y los primeros años del siglo XVII. El poder se percibe como múltiples formas en que las mujeres con un rango o dignidad real llegaron a crear alianzas, sobre todo mediante el vínculo del matrimonio. Este artículo también explora las imágenes que se crearon sobre los matrimonios de las descendientes incas y la relación de los textos con estas representaciones.

“…Theresa Earenfi ght writes that "women were not rigidly defi ned by extremes of power and powerlessness because the relational dynamic between men and women depended upon social rank, age, marital status and economic resources" and that queens formed an unusual elite among women. 33 Such lines of inquiry have led those who study queenship to look at queens' experiences in the context of other analogous medieval women, that is, elite and royal women, as well as their closest male counterparts, that is, the king, the princes of the blood, and the male high nobility. In so doing, a framework by which to study queens has been developed.…”

“…Equally troublesome are the terms power, influence, and agency, which have generated some of the most spirited conversations at conferences (Earenfight, ; Fößel, ). Power per se does not have a gender, but the ways it is held and exercised are affected by assumptions and expectations of gender.…”

This essay surveys new identities and frameworks for the study of medieval queens that have emerged over the past 30 years and argues that the study of queens and the practice of queenship has transformed the study of monarchy. Queenship is understood by most scholars to be a cluster of customs, practices, and political theory that focuses on who queens were and what they did; how they were perceived by their peers; and how they were vital to family, culture, religion, and economics in the European Middle Ages. Empirical research on queens and empresses cuts across time and space and is grounded in feminist theory and methods; it rejects traditional masculine‐centered political history in favor of a nuanced understanding of women and power.
