The three series of Printed Writings (15001640, 16411700, and 17011750) provide a comprehensive, if not entirely complete, collection of separately published writings by women. In reprinting these writings it is intended to remedy one of the major obstacles to the advancement of feminist criticism of the early modern period, namely the unavailability of the very texts upon which the field is based. The volumes in the facsimile library reproduce carefully chosen copies of these texts, incorporating a short introduction providing an overview of the life and work of a writer along with a survey of important scholarship.Printed Writings 16411700, Series II, Part Three consists of twelve volumes of writings grouped by genre The set comprises the following titles:Volume 1: Katherine Philips (1632-1664): Printed Publications 16511664Volume 2: Katherine Philips (16321664): Printed Poems 1667Volume 3: Katherine Philips (16321664): Printed Letters 1697172Volume 4: Miscellaneous Short Poetry, 16411700Volume 5: Elizabeth CellierVolume 6: Mary CarletonVolume 7: Anna WeamysVolume 8: Anna HumeVolume 9: Fiction of Unknown or Questionable Attribution I: Diotrephe and the Amorous AbbessVolume 10: Fiction of Unknown or Questionable Attribution II: Peppa and Alcander and PhilocratesVolume 11: Elinor JamesVolume 12: Delarivier Manley.
