| الملخص: | This highly readable monograph by Eleanor Hubbard is a first-rate addition to a historiography that has sought to understand how the rigid gender ideals evidenced in early modern prescriptive literature affected ordinary people by investigating consistory court depositions, building on a line of investigation popularized by Martin Ingram and Susan Amussen. Hubbard’s thoroughly researched and richly detailed attempt at recreating the lives of London’s female inhabitants is largely, though not exclusively, based on London’s church court deposition books from 1570 to 1640 that also provided inspiration for Laura Gowing in Domestic Dangers (1998). |
