Imagining the Unimaginable
This article explores the ways in which parricide was comprehended in England and Wales, c.1600–1760, and shows that while some parallels exist with modern explanatory models of parricide offenders, they had very different meanings in the early modern context. While both lunacy and the cruelty of parents were understood as possible contexts for parricide, neither were common. The dominant explanation was the gratuitous violence of a selfish indiv…
Rape, Acquittal and Culpability in Popular Crime Reports in England, c.1670-c.1750
Studies of rape between the sixteenth and twenty-first centuries invariably note that most rape trials end in acquittal. Since the 1970s, when feminist activism and criticism put rape on the political, social and academic agenda, the explanation for this apparently transhistorical phenomenon has been related to misogyny or, at least, a patriarchal sexual double standard. Rape seemed to have a long, unchanging history in which rape law, the crimin…
Everyman or a Monster? The Rapist in Early Modern England, c.1600-1750
The focus of this article is on responses to men who raped in early modern England and Wales. Most historical writing on sexual violence and rape in the period has focused on the women and children who were subjected to such abuse rather than upon the perpetrators. The rapist, when he appears, is presented at some times as everyman and at others a monster. The article explores what may be at stake in such a dichotomous view and its unresolved ten…
Gender, Change and Periodisation
This volume marks the twentieth anniversary of Gender and History by revisiting and reasserting the potential of women's history and gender history both to complicate and, more fundamentally, to revise received narratives of change.As Ludmilla Jordanova has observed, periodisation hinges on the privileging of particular vantage points and the selection of 'symbolic markers' according to 'the weight given to distinct fields of human activity', and…
Rereading Rape and Sexual Violence in Early Modern England
In the early modern period, the inapplicability of certain discourses of sex and violence impeded allegations of rape whilst facilitating denials of rape. Women who asserted rape (and men who spoke out in support) engendered those same discourses which incriminated them with their own semantic and expressive intent. Male violence was stressed and feminine agency discursively denied in these accounts. Sex was largely occluded, except when it appea…

Expanding the Boundaries of Female Honour in Early Modern England
Within the historiography of gender and reputation in early modern Europe, female and male honour are usually presented as being incommensurable; yet they are constantly compared. Female honour has been discussed primarily in the context of sexual reputation. Male honour is commonly imagined as ‘more complex’, involving matters of deference, physical prowess, economic and professional competence and die avoidance of public ridicule. Thus the pred…
