Do women have a history? Did women have a renaissance? These were
provocative questions when they were raised in the heyday of
women's studies in the 1970s. But how relevant does gender remain
to premodern history in the twenty-first century? This book
considers this question in eight new case studies that span the
European continent from 1400 to 1800. An introductory essay
examines the category of gender in historiography and specifically
within premodern historiography, as well as the issue of source
material for historians of the period. The eight individual essays
seek to examine gender in relation to emerging fields and
theoretical considerations, as well as how premodern history
contributes to traditional concepts and theories within women's and
gender studies, such as patriarchy.
