Introduction : women writers and familial discourse in the English Renaissance -- "Though a temporall man, yet your very spirituall father": the Roper/Basset line and the lives of Thomas More -- "Sory coumfortlesse orphanes" : the Rastell/Heywood line -- Worthy of their blood andtheir vocation : the More/Cresacre line -- Representations of relations on the political stage within the Fitzalan/Lumley household -- "As I,for one, who thus my habits change" : Mary Wroth and the abandonment of the Sidney/Herbert familial discourse -- Sisters and brothers : divided sibling identity in the Caryfamily -- Desire, chastity and rape in the Cavendish familial discourse.

Through an exploration of key women writers of the early modern period, Marion Wynne-Davies demonstrates the ways in which female authors were both enabled and constrained by the writing traditions and influences within their families. The engagement with and participation in the constructionof individual familial discourses is explained via an analysis of six Renaissance families: the Mores, Lumleys, Sidneys/Herberts,Carys and Cavendishes. While the book addresses the writings of male authors from these family groups, such as Sir Thomas More, John Donne, Philip Sidney, Lucius Cary andWilliam Cavendish, its primary focus is on Margaret More/Roper, Gertrude More, Jane Lumley, Mary Wroth, Elizabeth Cary and Jane, Elizabeth and Margaret Cavendish.
