At the heart of this volume is \"woman\" as she appears in a wealth of representations, from simple woodcuts and popular literature to master paintings; and as the focal point of a debate--sometimes humorous, sometimes acrimonious--conducted in every field: letters, arts, philosophy, the sciences, and medicine. Against oppressive experience, confining laws, and repetitious claims about female \"nature,\" women took initiative by quiet maneuvers and outright dissidence. In conformity and resistance, in image and reality, women from the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries emerge from these pages in remarkable diversity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Belknap Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46893307297943,"sku":"9780674403673","price":5805.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780674403673.webp?v=1770315264","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/history-of-women-in-the-west-9780674403673","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
