In the fourteenth  fifteenth  and sixteenth centuries  the cloister was a refuge for women with intellectual aspirations. A small percentage of women in religious orders put their writing skills to literary use  producing biographies of founding sisters  histories of their orders  and even poetry and theater. Most of these writings were never published  and only now are researchers beginning to unearth and transcribe them.  Women Writers of Early Modern Spain features: Spanish texts by Oliva Sabuco de Nantes  Mara de Zayas  Ana Caro  Leonor de la Cueva  and many others; An introduction in Spanish to each reading  with biographical information  comments on the authors approach  an overview of pertinent criticism  and an analysis of the work; A generous English introduction to the volume  placing writing by early modern Spanish women within the broader context of European life and culture; Full footnotes and topics for discussion for each unit; A selected bibliography for readers who wish to pursue independent study.  .\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44984631590965,"sku":"ByrdShop_0300092571","price":37.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780300092578.jpg?v=1770840013","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/women-writers-of-early-modern-spain-sophias-daughters","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
