Chaste, Silent and Obedient: English Books for Women 1475-1640 - Softcover
The author identifies and examines the books that appear to have been published, at least in part, for an English-speaking female audience during the Renaissance. Detailed bibliographic lists include not only books specifically directed to women as a group, but also histories and biographies of famous women as well as books with subjects specifically within a woman's province, such as midwifery, cookery, and needlework.
