Over the last twenty-five years scholarship on Early Modern women writers has produced editions and criticisms both on various groups and individual authors. The work on Mary Wroth has been particularly impressive at integrating her poetry, prose, and drama into the canon. This in turn has led to comparative studies that link Wroth to a number of male and female writers, including of course, William Shakespeare.0This book sets out to explore the ways in which Wroth negotiated the discourses that are embedded in the Shakespearean canon in order to develop an understanding of her oeuvre, based not on influence and imitation, but on difference, originality, and innovation. Because of its innovative comparative approach, this volume will provide fresh perspectives on two of the most important writers in early modern literature. Featuring ten chapters from an international selection of contributors, this book is an important reference for scholars of Early Modern women writers and Shakespeare.
