Description

Explore the complex cultural representations of motherhood in this academic collection from Routledge. Performing Maternity in Early Modern England examines the performative aspects and practical consequences of maternity between 1540 and 1690. This volume provides a deep look into how early modern texts portray fertility, conception, and delivery. By analyzing a wide range of historical documents and images alongside dramatic and non-dramatic literary texts, these essays investigate gendered constructions of maternity. The research highlights how the embodied and public nature of maternity defines it as an inherently performative experience. This book is a valuable resource for students and scholars interested in early modern drama, gender studies, and the history of performance.
