The Paradise of Women
The title of Betty Travitsky' s anthology, taken from a contemporary proverb, is ironic; her presentation of the history and writing of Englishwomen of the Renaissance brings out rather the "ambiguity" of their situation in this period, which allowed them a measure of development as "individuals, wives, and especially as mothers," while their general legal and economic status declined.Travitsky believes that this "ambiguous development" is "the r…
