An important contribution to growing scholarship on women's
participation in literary cultures, this essay collection
concentrates on cross-national communities of letters to offer a
comparative and international approach to early modern women's
writing. The essays gathered here focus on multiple literatures
from several countries, ranging from Italy and France to the Low
Countries and England. Individual essays investigate women in
diverse social classes and life stages, ranging from siblings and
mothers to nuns to celebrated writers; the collection overall is
invested in crossing geographic, linguistic, political, and
religious borders and exploring familial, political, and religious
communities. Taken together, these essays offer fresh ways of
reading early modern women's writing that consider such issues as
the changing cultural geographies of the early modern world,
women's bilingualism and multilingualism, and women's sense of
identity mediated by local, regional, national, and transnational
affiliations and conflicts.
