Considering as evidence literary texts, historical documents, and
material culture, this interdisciplinary study examines the entry
into public political culture of women and apprentices in
seventeenth-century England, and their use of discursive and
literary forms in advancing an imaginary of political equality.
Subordinate Subjects traces to the end of Elizabeth Tudor's reign
in the 1590s the origin of this imaginary, analyses its flowering
during the English Revolution, and examines its afterlife from the
Restoration of Charles II in 1660 to the Glorious Revolution of
1688-89. It uses post-Marxist theories of radical democracy,
post-structuralist theories of gender, and a combination of
political theory and psychoanalysis to discuss the early modern
construction of the political subject. Subordinate Subjects makes a
distinctive contribution to the study of early modern English
literature and culture through its chronological range, its
innovative use of political, psychoanalytic, and feminist theories,
and its interdisciplinary focus on literature, social history,
political thought, gender studies, and cultural studies.
