Gender and the Garden in Early Modern English Literature (Women and Gender in the Early Modern World)

by JenniferMunroe (Author)

Synopsis

Focuses on the developing gendered tension in gardening that stemmed from a shift from the garden as a means of feeding a family, to the garden as an aesthetic object imbued with status. This book looks at how men and women appropriated aesthetic uses of actual gardening in their poetry, and reveals a parallel gendered tension there.
