If the first phase of feminist criticism of English Renaissance studies unduly stressed women's victimization, the revisionist trend, this collection argues, is in denial about gender inequality altogether. This exciting volume represents the newest, post-revisionist phase of feminist criticism, which tries to integrate the vital insights of both earlier phases of scholarship and to establish a more accurate and nuanced picture of women's relation to early modern English culture. Features an Afterword by Gail Kern Paster and contributions from Jean Howard, Kate Chedgzoy and Grace Ioppolo, amongst others.

Industry Reviews

'The essays in this volume are original, well-wrought, and delightfully diverse, together manifesting the richness and flexibility of feminist thought as it intersects with a variety of critical approaches to the early modern period. As a detailed and comprehensive map of the debates and discoveries in the field, the book will prove an essential tool for teachers and scholars. This is required reading for all interested in the period, whatever their perspective on feminism or gender studies.' - Celia R. Daileader, Professor of English, Florida State University, USA
