Description

Book Synopsis
Six annotated pamphlets on the role of women in 15th Century society. They give insight into debates within English culture on gossips, treatises against wife-beating, superiority of women, and cross-dressing. They constitute a significant body of primary literature, allowing the contending voices to be heard.

Trade Review
"We still have much to learn about the lives of women and the attitudes toward them in early modern England. Susan O'Malley's six texts make a valuable contribution to such a project and her careful editing and generous notations guide us in recovering an essential part of the culture." -Arthur F. Kinney, President, Renaissance English Text Society
