Description

Explore the hidden history of 16th-century England through this academic study by Routledge. This work examines the largest available corpus of women's private writings: their wills. By looking at these legal documents, the text provides a unique look at how women expressed their views on identity, gender, and social status during the Tudor era. These writings reveal women as active participants in civil society. The study shows how they exercised personal authority and influence through their daily lives and their charitable strategies after death. This book offers a fresh perspective on the social engagement and familial relationships of women from 1485 to 1603, making it a valuable resource for historians and students of legal and social history.
