Of all the new developments in literary theory, feminism has proved
to be the most widely influential, leading to an expansion of the
traditional English canon in all periods of study. This book aims
to make the work of Renaissance women writers in English better
known to general and academic readers so as to strengthen the case
for their future inclusion in the Renaissance literary canon.
This lively book surveys women writers in the sixteenth century and
early seventeenth centuries. Its selection is vast, historically
representative, and original, taking examples from twenty
different, relatively unknown authors in all genres of writing,
including poetry, fiction, religious works, letters and journals,
translation, and books on childcare. It establishes new contexts
for the debate about women as writers within the period and
suggests potential intertextual connections with works by
well-known male authors of the same time.
Individual authors and works are given concise introductions, with
both modern and historical critical analysis, setting them in a
theoretical and historicised context. All texts are made readily
accessible through modern spelling and punctuation, on-the-page
annotation and headnotes. The substantial, up-to-date bibliography
provides a source for further study and research.
