Description

Expand your understanding of early modern culture with this scholarly study from Routledge. Household Servants in Early Modern Domestic Tragedy moves beyond traditional studies of elite and aristocratic circles to examine the institution of service within the homes of the middling sorts. This book provides a fresh perspective on how employer-servant relationships functioned and were represented on the early modern stage. By focusing on domestic tragedy, the text explores the social dynamics of the period through a wide range of historical sources. Readers can examine the realities of service by looking at early modern advice literature, household guides, and domestic manuals. The research also incorporates insights from sermons, treatises, proverbs, mothers' legacies, and funeral sermons to build a comprehensive view of the era. This work is an essential resource for students and scholars interested in Renaissance literature, culture, and the social history of domestic life.
