Performing Maternity in Early Modern England features essays that
share a common concern with exploring maternity's cultural
representation, performative aspects and practical consequences in
the period from 1540-1690. The essays interrogate how early modern
texts depict fertility, conception, delivery and gendered
constructions of maternity by analyzing a wealth of historical
documents and images in conjunction with dramatic and non-dramatic
literary texts. They emphasize that the embodied, repeated and
public nature of maternity defines it as inherently performative
and ultimately central to the production of gender identity during
the early modern period.
