In this informative and lively volume, Margaret L. King synthesizes a large body of literature on the condition of western European women in the Renaissance centuries (1350-1650), crafting a much-needed and unified overview of women's experience in Renaissance society. Utilizing the perspectives of social, church, and intellectual history, King looks at women of all classes, in both usual and unusual settings. She first describes the familial roles filled by most women of the day—as mothers, daughters, wives, widows, and workers. She turns then to that significant fraction of women in, and acted upon, by the church: nuns, uncloistered holy women, saints, heretics, reformers,and witches, devoting special attention to the social and economic independence monastic life afforded them. The lives of exceptional women, those warriors, queens, patronesses, scholars, and visionaries who found some other place in society for their energies and strivings, are explored, with consideration given to the works and writings of those first protesting female subordination: the French Christine de Pizan, the Italian Modesta da Pozzo, the English Mary Astell. Of interest to students of European history and women's studies, King's volume will also appeal to general readers seeking an informative, engaging entrance into the Renaissance period.

Excerpt from The Renaissance of Motherhood In this book I have spoken of the social means possible for calling forth a renaissance of motherhood. I have proposed the study of eugenics; a year of social service as preparation for motherhood; state pensions for mothers - which does not imply that the fathers are to be freed from the responsibility. But the real renaissance must come through the education of the feelings. Many women now advance as the ideal of the future, the self-supporting wife working out of the home and leaving the care and education of the children to "born" educators. This ideal is the death of home-life and family life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Fabulous true stories of the most amazing women in history. They were cool and courageous, self–reliant and sharp–witted, daring and determined. They were the exciting, inspiring, and totally Outrageous Women of the Renaissance. These remarkable women forged their own paths, made their own rules––and rocked the world! Among the outrageous women you′ll meet are: ∗ Joan of Arc––the bold warrior who at age 17 became commander–in–chief of the French army and led her country′s charge against the invading English. ∗ Elisabetta Sirani––the lightning–quick painter who opened an all–female art school and became an international sensation. ∗ Grace O′Malley––the mother of three who ruled the high seas as Ireland′s pirate queen and freedom fighter. ∗ Christina of Sweden––the eccentric Swedish monarch who awakened her country to the wonders of Renaissance art, science, and literature. ∗ Gracia Mendes Nasi––the Spanish humanitarian and philanthropist whose "underground railroad" saved the lives of countless persecuted Jews.
