Gender, society, and print culture in late Stuart England

Description:

"Focusing on a largely unknown type of popular print culture that developed in the late 1600s - the coffee house periodical - Helen Berry here offers new evidence that the politics of gender, far from being a marginal or frivolous topic, was an issue of general interest and wide-spread concern to the early modern reader." "The study will appeal not only to historians, women and gender studies scholars and literature scholars, but also to scholars of publishing history."--Jacket.
