The Remembrances of Elizabeth Freke 1671-1714 (Camden Fifth Series) Book

The manuscript accounts of Elizabeth Freke's late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century Norfolk gentry world are the basis for a new critical edition of her autobiography. A complexly contradictory woman caught in an unhappy domestic life, Freke consciously constructed and reconstructed an identity as a wife, mother, and widow. By preserving the two quite often different manuscript versions, the edition provides a new appreciation of a self-image distinct, if not unique, among early modern women's autobiography.Read More
