Collectively, the focus on individual women litigants - rather than how women were defined by legal systems - highlights continuities in their experiences of justice, while also demonstrating the unique and intersecting factors that influenced each woman's negotiation of the courts. Spanning a broad chronology and a wide range of contexts, these studies also offer a valuable insight into the practices and priorities of the many courts under discussion that goes beyond our focus on women litigants. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on archival research from England, Scotland, Ireland, France, the Low Countries, Central and Eastern Europe, and Scandinavia, \u003ci\u003eLitigating Women \u003c\/i\u003eis the perfect resource for students and scholars interested in legal studies and gender in medieval and early modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45241600934039,"sku":"9780367230289","price":3403.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780367230289.webp?v=1769229264","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/litigating-women-gender-and-justice-in-europe-c-1300-c-1800-9780367230289","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
