Patterned Lives
In der Erforschung biographischer Daten, als Quellen historischer und soziologischer Fragestellungen stellen Leichenpredigten eine wichtige Gattung dar. In Fortfuhrung fruherer Arbeiten ("The Maiden' s Mirror", Wolfenbutteler Forschungen Bd. 36) nutzt die Verfasserin diese Quellengattung, um nicht nur Verhaltensmuster nachzuzeichnen, die das Leben im 16. und 17.

Women and Gender in Early Modern Europe
This is a major new textbook, designed for students in all disciplines seeking an introduction to the very latest research on all aspects of women's lives in Europe from 1500 to 1750, and on the development of the notions of masculinity and femininity. The coverage is geographically broad, ranging from Spain to Scandinavia, and from Russia to Ireland, and the topics investigated include the female life-cycle, literacy, women's economic role, sexuality, artistic creations, female piety - and witchcraft - and the relationship between gender and power. To aid students each chapter contains extensive notes on further reading (but few footnotes), and the approach throughout is designed to render the subject in as accessible and stimulating manner as possible. Women and Gender in Early Modern Europe is suitable for usage on numerous courses in women's history, early modern European history, and comparative history.

Women and Early Modern Cultures of Translation
Women and Early Modern Cultures of Translation: Beyond the Female Tradition is a major new intervention in research on early modern translation and will be an essential point of reference for anyone interested in the history of women translators. Research on women translators has often focused on early modern England; the example of early modern England has been taken as the norm for the rest of the continent and has shaped research on gender and translation more generally. This book brings a new European perspective to the field by introducing the case of Germany. It draws attention to forty women who can be identified as translators in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Germany and shows h...
