Just Anger: Representing Women’s Anger in Early Modern England

Abstract

The publisher’s jacket blurb tells us that Gwynne Kennedy, who teaches English at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, is the »first scholar to investigate thoroughly the subject of women’s anger in early modern England.« Indeed, Kennedy’s work breaks neglected ground on a thought-provoking topic that is or ought to be of interest to any student of the literary and cultural history of the period. Moreover, Just Anger adds to the growing body of fascinating scholarly work on the study of human emotions and their expression.
