When Gossips Meet: Women, Family, and Neighbourhood in Early Modern England - Oxford Studies in Social History
Capp, Bernard (Professor of History, University of Warwick)
This title explores how women of the poorer and middling sorts in early modern England sought to make the best of their lives in a society that excluded or marginalized them in almost every sphere. It argues that networks of close friends ('gossips') provided invaluable moral and practical support.
