Grace E. Coolidge

Guardianship, Gender, and the Nobility in Early Modern Spain (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Contrary to early modern patriarchal assumptions, this study argues that noblemen in early modern Spain depended on the active collaboration of noblewomen to maintain and expand their authority, wealth, and influence. Drawing on a variety of archival documents from Toledo, Grace Coolidge examines in detail the legal status of these women, their role within their families, and their responsibilities for the children and property in their care.
