MEDIEVAL AND EARLY MODERN WOMEN

Part 1: Manuscripts from the British Library, London

"….although the women in these periods lacked the authority of public office, they actually possessed a considerable power: the power to describe who they were, and what they thought, and to persuade others, mainly men, that they should be heard and taken seriously."
Professor Constance Jordan
Department of English, Claremont Graduate University

Medieval and Early Modern Women will delight those searching for original source
material for this period. Explore texts by key women authors, illustrated manuscripts and sources describing the lives of women in this period.

These sources bring us closer to the social and domestic lives of women in the medieval and early modern period and offer insights into women's reading and learning. They provide a wealth of material to be explored and will be of interest to all centres of medieval and renaissance studies, as well as to scholars in history, English, French and women's studies.
