Offering a broad and eclectic approach to the experience and
activities of early modern women, Challenging Orthodoxies presents
new research from a group of leading voices in their respective
fields. Each essay confronts some received wisdom, 'truth' or
orthodoxy in social and cultural, scientific and intellectual, and
political and legal traditions, to demonstrate how women from a
range of social classes could challenge the conventional thinking
of their time as well as the ways in which they have been
traditionally portrayed by scholars. Subjects include women's
relationship to guns and gunpowder, the law and legal discourse,
religion, public finances, and the new science in early modern
Europe, as well as women and indentured servitude in the New World.
A testament to the pioneering work of Hilda L. Smith, this
collection makes a valuable contribution to scholarship in women's
studies, political science, history, religion and literature.
