The Life of Rachel Speght

Nevertheless, almost fifty years after her re-emergence, the woman behind the works remains little known. This book explores Speght’s life, from her formation in the turbulent world of Jacobean London to her last years as a displaced person within a Suffolk community torn apart by religious strife.

Cu toate acestea, la aproape cincizeci de ani de la reaparitia ei, femeia din spatele lucrarilor ramane putin cunoscuta. Aceasta carte exploreaza viata lui Speght, de la formarea ei in lumea agitata a Londrei iacobee pana la ultimii ei ani ca persoana stramutata intr-o comunitate din Suffolk sfasiata de conflictele religioase.
