Resumo

Nationalism and gender expectations create ideological forces of recognized strength. Sometimes they work together, combining to glorify or to diminish people. Sometimes they work at cross-purposes, each one countering the other. In this essay, we will explore several different uses of nationalism and of gender expectations in printed reactions to the scandal around Queen Caroline Matilda of Denmark, a sister of George III of England, in 1772.
