Softcover. Zustand: Very Good. Only very slight wear to cover. Internally, clean and fresh, with unmarked and uncreased pages. Overall, very sound and presentable. Publisher's note: "'It may peradventure . appear strange to thee to recyve theas lines from a mother that dyed when thou weart born.' So writes Elizabeth Joscelin to her unborn daughter, shortly before dying in childbirth on 12 October 1622. As a godly woman, Joscelin was aware of her duty to instruct her child in religion. Prophetically fearing her death, she chose to embody her instruction in a text, a mother's legacy, through which she could (as it were) speak to her child from the dead. In 1624, a chaplain to the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Goad, published Joscelin's legacy for a wider audience - but with significant changes." "This edition reproduces Joscelin's own manuscript for the first time, complete with her authorial revisions as well as notes of Goad's cuts and corrections. The result is an unusually rich and complete story of textual and cultural negotiations: not merely of Goad editing Joscelin, but also of Joscelin editing herself."--Jacket.

Paperback. Zustand: New. The form in which 17th-century women chose to give maternal advice, the 'mother's legacy' reflects the Stuart preoccupation with meditating upon death and the significance with which deathbed blessings or pronouncements were imbued. The three presented here, with introductions and notes, include Elizabeth Joscelin's legacy, written shortly before her death in childbirth and published, with certain changes, by a chaplain in 1624. This edition reproduces Joscelin's own manuscript for the first time. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 277520
