Compare Crime Gender and Social Order in Early Modern England by Garthine Walker, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Garthine Walker reveals that women were not treated leniently by the courts and that beliefs about gender and order impacted on real legal outcomes in early modern England. She demonstrates that the household role had as much to do with the nature of criminality as the individual in this period. Challenging hitherto accepted views regarding gender stereotyping, this book illuminates the complexities of everyday English life in the early modern period. | Crime Gender and Social Order in Early Modern England by Garthine Walker, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
