In her Great Books of Record Anne Clifford places herself within
the dynamic history of the ancient Clifford family, providing an
unbroken view into medieval and early modern life for nearly six
centuries. In this annotated edition, we glimpse the lives of
simple widows, traders, farmers, and labourers juxtaposed with the
adventures of soldiers, lords and ladies, princes and princesses.
Throughout, Anne Clifford asserts the centrality of women to the
success of noble families, including the monarchy. Her Great Books
draws upon medieval traditions and early modern scholarship and
builds upon these through biographies of the Clifford lords and
ladies, along with an extended biography of her mother Margaret
Russell and her own autobiographical 'Life of Mee'. Those
interested in the lives of medieval and early modern women, changes
in culture, the effect of the political upon individuals, and the
inspiring life of Anne Clifford will find this a rich and rewarding
book. -- .
