Can anyone point me to information on the ceremonies, religious and/or secular, that would be observed if Elizabeth I decided to advance one of her favorites to an earldom?
I can't imagine that this sort of preferment would pass without some kind of public ceremony, but I haven't been able to find anything that describes the specific events, or changes that might have been made from earlier medieval ceremonies.
Thanks to anyone who can help!
