Note(s) : "Includes articles by fourteen outstanding scholars who examine works by or about
exceptional early modern Spanish women from diverse walks of life--from queens to
poets, from actors to saints. Divided into four parts, these essays demonstrate how
these women asserted their agency in the household, in the convent, on the stage,
or at their writing desks"-- Provided by publisher. - Includes bibliographical references and index
Although scholars often depict early modern Spanish women as victims, history and
fiction of the period are filled with examples of women who defended their God-given
right to make their own decisions and to define their own identities. The essays in
'Women Warriors in Early Modern Spain' examine many such examples, demonstrating how
women battled the status quo, defended certain causes, challenged authority, and broke
barriers. Such women did not necessarily engage in masculine pursuits, but often used
cultural production and engaged in social subversion to exercise resistance in the
home, in the convent, on stage, or at their writing desks
