Description

Explore a unique perspective on gender and history with The Mother's Legacy in Early Modern England. Published by Routledge, this scholarly work examines printed and manuscript texts from 1575 to 1672 to define a specific branch of the advice tradition. Jennifer Heller investigates the genre of the mother's legacy, which consists of the pious counsel provided by dying mothers to their children. By reading these texts through the lens of specific cultural contexts and historical events, this book reveals how writers used this genre to influence their children's behaviors and beliefs. It also looks at how these women sought to secure family status and participate in the religious and political debates of the era. This book is an essential resource for those studying early modern history, women's roles, and the evolution of literary traditions in England.
