Description
Drawing on letters, diaries, legal records, and other contemporary sources, this vivid history reveals how women experienced and shaped life during the Tudor period. From queens and ladies of the court to wives, workers, widows, and religious women, it explores marriage, motherhood, education, faith, work, and the law. The book illuminates both the restrictions imposed on Tudor women and the resourcefulness, influence, and resilience with which they navigated a rapidly changing society. Engaging and richly researched, it offers a broader, more intimate picture of Tudor England beyond its famous kings and queens.
