Book Description:
|
The first collection to examine the gendered nature of women's letter-writing in England and Ireland from the late-Elizabethan period through to the Restoration, this book reorients the study of women's letters in the contexts of early modern culture. The volume builds upon recent approaches to the letter, both rhetorical and material, that have the power to transform the ways in which scholars understand, study and situate early modern women's letter-writing.
