How did gender figure in understandings of spatial realms, from the
inner spaces of the body to the furthest reaches of the globe? How
did women situate themselves in the early modern world, and how did
they move through it, in both real and imaginary locations? How do
new disciplinary and geographic connections shape the ways we think
about the early modern world, and the role of women and men in it?
These are the questions that guide this volume, which includes
articles by a select group of scholars from many disciplines: Art
History, Comparative Literature, English, German, History,
Landscape Architecture, Music, and Women's Studies. Each essay
reaches across fields, and several are written by interdisciplinary
groups of authors. The essays also focus on many different places,
including Rome, Amsterdam, London, and Paris, and on texts and
images that crossed the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, or that
portrayed real and imagined people who did. Many essays investigate
topics key to the 'spatial turn' in various disciplines, such as
borders and their permeability, actual and metaphorical spatial
crossings, travel and displacement, and the built environment.
