Couverture du Amy Louise Erickson: Women and Property (PDF)

This ground-breaking book reveals the economic reality of ordinary women between the late 16th and early 18th centuries. Drawing on little-known sources, Amy Louise Erickson reconstructs day-to-day lives, showing how women owned, managed and inherited property on a scale previously unrecognised. Her complex and fascinating research, which contrasts the written laws with the actual practice, completely revises the traditional picture of women »s economic status in pre-industrial England. Women and Property is essential reading for anyone interested in women, law and the past.
