Description - Women's Writing of the Early Modern Period, 1588-1688 by Stephanie Hodgson-Wright
This anthology brings together a broad selection of women's writings from the Early Modern period, most of which are unavailable elsewhere.

Full texts and substantial extracts are included of writings by Elizabeth I, Margaret Cavendish, Anna Trapnel, Aphra Behn, Mary Carleton, Mary Herbert, Jane Anger, Rachel Speght, and others. Spelling and punctuation have been modernized. Augmenting the texts are brief biographies, bibliographies, an index of themes, and a general introduction covering the wider social and religious context in which women wrote and elucidating issues of feminism and feminine authorship.
