The Other Voice

in Early Modern Europe

 


"In the early modern period (about 1400 to about 1700), women entered into the mainstream of European civilization, contributing works in multiple genres (dialogues, essays, letters, plays, poems, treatises) and in many modern languages (including Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Latin, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Ukrainian, and, at a somewhat later date, Russian). At the same time, they pressed for a wider recognition of women’s intellectual and moral capacity, a campaign in which they were joined by a few male advocates and defenders.

The series “The Other Voice in Early Modern Europe,” co-edited by Margaret L. King and Albert Rabil, Jr., has, since 1996, been publishing the major works by early modern women; the list will eventually include about 160 volumes. Sixty of these appear under the imprint of the University of Chicago Press, the last of which will be published in late 2011. About 100 more will appear in the Toronto series, published by the Centre for Reformation and Renaissance Studies (CRRS) and Iter, both located at the University of Toronto. Publication in Toronto began in late 2009 and by the end of 2010 at least nine volumes will have been published. The Toronto series will also be made available online on the Iter website, but as of this writing in mid-2010 that agreement has not yet been implemented.

This website lists all books from both series. As books are published their cover images are added. A click onto a cover image makes possible the ordering of that book. Each book published in the Chicago series included a series editors’ introduction and a bibliography of books by and on early modern women. Neither is included in the Toronto publications, but the introduction and a much expanded bibliography are available on this website and can be accessed as pdf documents. The bibliography will be kept up to date and expanded on a continuing basis.

The website now has a name that describes it: www.othervoiceineme.com. Share it with colleagues and students.
