Women’s bookscapes in early modern Britain
In thirteen essays, this publication investigates questions about early modern British women’s figurative, material, and cultural relationships with books. The volume’s three-part structure highlights case studies of individual readers and their libraries: analyses of readers and readership in the context of their interpretive communities: and new types of scholarly evidence - lists of confiscated books and convent rules, for example - as well as new methodologies and technologies for ongoing research.- Creator

Revisiting gender in European history, 1400–1800
How relevant does gender remain to premodern history in the twenty-first century? This book considers this question in eight case studies that span the European continent from 1400 to 1800. An introductory essay examines the category of gender in historiography and specifically within premodern historiography, as well as the issue of source material for historians of the period.- Creator

Girls, texts, cultures
This book focuses on girls and girlhoods, texts for and about girls, and the cultural contexts that shape girls’ experience. Contributors from disciplines such as sociology, literature, education, and gender studies combine these disciplinary approaches in novel ways with insights from international studies, postcolonial studies, game studies, and other fields. Each essay is concerned in one way or another with the politics of girlhood as they manifest in national and cultural contexts, in the everyday practices of girls, and in textual ideologies and agendas.- Creator

Materializing gender in eighteenth-century Europe
This volume of essays, by art historians and museum professionals, offers interpretations of how gender – both masculinity and femininity – is made manifest in material goods and their representations, consistently pointing out the role of these is not only in reflecting, but also constructing the gendered self. The objects under consideration range from the quotidian to the exotic, including beds, guns, fans, needle paintings, prints, drawings, mantillas, almanacs, reticules, silver punch bowls, and collage.- Creator

Gendering ethnicity in African women’s lives
This volume engages the issue of women’s ethnicity and makes contributions to debates about how and why women’s movements have a unifying role in African political organization and peace movements. Drawing on field research in different regions of Africa, the contributors demonstrate in their essays that women do make choices about the forms of ethnicity they embrace, creating alternatives to male-centered definitions - in some cases rejecting a specific ethnic identity in favor of an interethnic alliance, in others reinterpreting the meaning of ethnicity within gendered domains, and in others performing ethnic power in gendered ways.- Creator

Didactic novels and British women’s writing, 1790-1820

Didactic novels and British women’s writing, 1790-1820
Tracing the rise of conduct literature and the didactic novel over the course of the eighteenth century, this book explores how British women used the didactic novel genre to engage in political debate during and immediately after the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars. The first part addresses both conservative and radical texts of the 1790s to show their shared focus on institutional reform and indebtedness to Mary Wollstonecraft, despite their large ideological range. In the second part, the ideas of Hannah More influence the ways authors after the French revolution often linked the didactic with domestic improvement and national unity.- Creator
