This collection explores how situations of authority, governance,
and influence were practised through both gender ideologies and
affective performances in medieval and early modern England.
Authority is inherently relational it must be asserted over someone
who allows or is forced to accept this dominance. The capacity to
exercise authority is therefore a social and cultural act, one that
is shaped by social identities such as gender and by social
practices that include emotions. The contributions in this volume,
exploring case studies of women and men's letter-writing, political
and ecclesiastical governance, household rule, exercise of law and
order, and creative agency, investigate how gender and emotions
shaped the ways different individuals could assert or maintain
authority, or indeed disrupt or provide alternatives to
conventional practices of authority.
