Volume III of A History of Women draws a richly detailed picture of
women in early modern Europe, considering them in a context of
work, marriage, and family. At the heart of this volume is "woman"
as she appears in a wealth of representations, from simple woodcuts
and popular literature to master paintings; and as the focal point
of a debate-sometimes humorous, sometimes acrimonious-conducted in
every field: letters, arts, philosophy, the sciences, and medicine.
Against oppressive experience, confining laws, and repetitious
claims about female "nature," women took initiative by quiet
maneuvers and outright dissidence. In conformity and resistance, in
image and reality, women from the sixteenth through the eighteenth
centuries emerge from these pages in remarkable diversity.
