1611: Authority, Gender and the Word in Early Modern England

1611: Authority, Gender and the Word in Early Modern England is a full-length monograph of over 100,000 words (243 pages), the fruit of many years of research into the textual culture of one year. It deals with a large body of material – more than 100 original texts written, published or performed in 1611 – and synthesises the discussion into a substantial introduction and 9 chapters. The book involves detailed analysis of the texts in their historical moment and puts forward a new sense of the era and of how early modern literature functioned. It is the equivalent of 10 articles.
