Description

This scholarly work examines the largest corpus of women's private writings from 16th-century England: their wills. Through these historical documents, female voices emerge to reveal their perspectives on daily life, identity, gender, status, familial relationships and social engagement. The study demonstrates that women were active participants in civil society, acutely aware of their personal authority and potential influence. Their committed actions during life and charitable strategies after death shaped their communities and left lasting legacies. By analysing wills from 1485 to 1603, this book contributes an original dimension to existing scholarship on Tudor women, offering historians unprecedented insight into how women exercised agency, managed property, and articulated their values through these intimate yet legally binding documents.
