Description

Explore how gardening practices in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England transformed social structures and gender roles. This study by Routledge examines the radical changes in how gardens were used, moving from a practical means of feeding a family to an aesthetic object used to signal status. While previous research has looked at how middle-class men used gardens for social mobility, this book fills a gap by looking at the gendering of the garden. It investigates the tensions that arose as gardening shifted from a domestic necessity to a tool for social advancement. This work provides a new perspective on the social functions of the garden and the opportunities it created for both men and women during the early modern period.

Key Features

Examines the social mobility offered to men and women through changing gardening practices in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England.

Analyzes the shift from gardens as food sources for families to gardens as aesthetic symbols of social status.

Provides a new study on the gendering of gardening that has previously gone largely unexamined in historical research.

Investigates the developing gendered tensions stemming from radical reconfigurations in early modern gardening.

Part of the Women and Gender in the Early Modern World series from Routledge.
