Reviews
'Howe's book makes a significant contribution to the study of women and culture in the early modern Hispanic world. In particular, her examination of women's access to education is a noteworthy addition to our understanding of their lives.' Elizabeth Lehfeldt, author of Religious Women in Golden Age Spain 'I recommend this study for its well-researched insight into what, until recently, was a largely unexplored area of study: the intellectual lives of Early Modern women in the Spanish-speaking world.' Parergon 'By advancing our knowledge of women's education, Howe invites us to join her in the quest for female modes of learning and for diverse interpretations of literacy.' Renaissance Quarterly
