This volume presents a collection of source materials on women's
lives in 16th and 17th century England. The book introduces a
diverse group of women and a series of voices that have rarely been
heard in history, from Deborah Brackley, a poor Devon servant, to
Katharine Whitstone, Oliver Cromwell's sister, and Queen Anne.
Drawing on archival materials, the text explores the everyday lives
of ordinary early modern women, including their: experiences of
work, sex, marriage and motherhood; beliefs and spirituality;
political activities; relationships; and mental worlds. In a time
when few women could write, the book seeks to reveal the multitude
of ways in which their voices and experiences leave traces in the
written record, and deepen and challenge our understanding of
women's lives in the past.
