Women's Wealth and Women's Writing in Early Modern England - Elizabeth Mazzola - Bog

Focusing on both literary and material networks, this book examines the nature of women's wealth in early modern England, as well as the ways that women's writing sought to manage and transmit this wealth. If material goods like jewels and cloth could substantiate powerful ties between mothers and daughters, Mazzola argues that literary artifacts like diaries, prayers and poetry similarly described and supported their ties.
