Women on the Margins: Three Seventeenth-Century Lives

Davis retrieves three women’s lives from historical obscurity to give us a window onto the early modern world. Glikl bas Judah Leib, Marie de l’Incarnation, and Maria Sibylla Merian were living “on the margins” in 17th-century Europe, North America, and South America. They left behind writings that make for a spellbinding and informative tale.
