Críticas:

'Writing a textbook about such a diverse topic as the history of early modern women is no mean feat...Amanda Capern's book is by far the most wide-ranging and will set the debates for much future work in the fields of both historical and literary studies about early-modern women.'  - Jackie Eales, Journal of Gender Studies
 
 

Reseña del editor:

Designed for undergraduate use, this book contains a general chapter on the history and theory of women's history, followed by a section on the constructions of early modern woman through Christian and scientific ideas, social prescriptions and intellectual and popular debate. A further section uses the theoretical framework of 'separate spheres' for discussion of women and work, law, politics, education, religion and writing. The conclusion addresses recent themes in early modern gender history.
