Description:

This powerful and original study of the relations between men and women in early modern England investigates the workings of the system of patriarchy that has long been fundamental to western civilization. Looking at the many ways society endorsed male domination, its consequences for women, and the ways women pressed for change, Anthony Fletcher shows how adjustments in the relationship between the sexes laid the foundations for gender relations today.
