A female success The debate over female succession to the throne in the 17th and 20th centuries The purpose of the essay was to analyse how the discussion and attitude was towards femalesuccession to the throne before her accession to the throne. The timeperiod I chose toinvestigate is the 17th centyry, the time before Kristina´s accession to the throne, and the 20thcentury until 1980, when our current succession order came into force, which concerns ourCrown Princess Victoria. That way I saw if there was any change in opinions regarding thefact that is a woman who assumes the throne. My method has been to study previous researchand parlimentary protocols to get answears to the questions. As a theory, I have started fromthe two concepts of gender segregation and hierarchy. The debate of female succession to thethrone and the debate on change to the succession order can be seen from a genderperspective, which ones were positive or negative to the introduction of female succession.The analyse showed that in the 16th century and a bit into the 20th century, women wereconsidered to be subordinate sex. It was thought that the woman could not or would not ruleover a kingdom or over the man. It was important to have male regent. But somewhere in themiddle of the 20th century, there was a change from a gender perspective when talking aboutfemale succession to the throne. Who wanted to make the woman visible, lift her out of onesubordinate position in society. That the debate took a long time before a change in thesuccession order was due to a parallell discussion about a republic rather then of equalsuccession to the throne.

Given the importance of an accurate, well-documented base text for any kind of literary or linguistic analysis, my thesis will consider how the editorial bias forced on a popular and influential medieval romance, the Auchinleck Guy of Warwick, by its EETS editor Julius Zupitza misrepresents the romance's manuscript presentation and has therefore prejudiced scholarship on fourteenth-century bookmaking. When Zupitza edited the Auchinleck version of the Guy romance, he seems to have had in mind the conventional textual principles upheld by his fellow Victorians. Unfortunately few of these Victorians produced texts which would today be considered acceptable. Though Victorian productions of many works have been replaced by modern editions, Zupitza' s Guy is the only available text of the romance. The failure of Zupitza's text is complicated by the fact that the Auchinleck Manuscript and the Auchinleck Guy, because of its unique division into three poems, figure prominently in medieval bookmaking theory. While three medieval bookmaking theories focus on the Auchinleck, none of the prominent Auchinleck scholars - Laura Loomis, Pamela Robinson, or Timothy Shonk - has recognized how Zupi tza unintentionally manipulates the Auchinleck Guy with his textual presentation of the romance. By indicating the errors and misleading practices which have shaped Zupitza's presentation of the Auchinleck Guy, I plan to establish the necessity for a new, more accurate critical edition of the Auchinleck Guy and to suggest how a more accurate critical edition can influence literary and bibliographical studies. / M.A.
