Tudor and Stuart Women Writers - Paperback
by Louise Schleiner (Author), Susan Gubar (Editor), Sandra M. Gilbert (Editor)
" . . . a nuanced, carefully argued work that reveals how women writers of the Renaissance, whether upper-class aristocrats close to court, daughters of successful merchants, Protestants, or Catholics, are inevitably affected by the gender biases that infuse all levels of Renaissance society and letters." --Sixteenth Century Journal
" . . . quite effective at developing a critical vocabulary for analyzing the formal traits of early modern women's writing." --Tulsa Studies in Women's Literature
From the perspectives of feminism, Marxism, sociology, and cultural semiotics, Louise Schleiner examines both familiar and obscure Tudor and Stuart women writers in a comprehensive study of those women who managed to go beyond translations or diaries and find a more individual voice in their public texts.
LOUISE SCHLEINER is Associate Professor of English at Washington State University and author of The Living Lyre in English Verse from Elizabeth through the Restoration and Cultural Semiotics and the Elizabethan Captive Woman.
