1ST EDITION, hardcover, published by University of Missouri Press. Fifteen original essays edited by Claude J. Summers & Ted-Larry Pebworth, "Focusing on women as writers and subjects of Renaissance non-dramatic literature, the fifteen original essays in this volume share the belief that heirarchially ordered male-female relations influence nearly all aspects of human social conditions, including those that are apparently not gendered at all. Some of the essays participate in the exciting process of recovering and evaluating women writers whose works are only now entering the canon of English literature, while others examine gender issues in male-authored canonical texts. The contributors to Representing Women in Renaissance England, some of whom are the most distinguished scholars currently active in the field of Renaissance studies, offer correctives to oversimplified views of women in Renaissance literature, frequently questioning received ideas about patriarchy and about women's responses to their varied positions within a society whose hierarchies were configured according to multiple considerations."
