Abstract (en)

Proceedings of the interdisciplinary symposium on women in England in the 16th and 17th cs., sponsored by the Center for Renaissance and Baroque Studies and the University of Maryland at College Park, 8-10 Nov 1990. Papers of art historical interest include Nanette Solomon on visual depictions of Elizabeth I; and Keith Moxey on high art (e.g., Dürer's Melencolia I) and low art (e.g., Erhard Schön's 1533 woodcut, There is No Greater Treasure Here on Earth than an Obedient Wife Who Covets Honor), how they functioned to define class distinctions, and how these distinctions marked the boundaries of gendered identities in early modern Europe.
