Widowhood in medieval and early modern Europe

This new collection of essays brings together brand new research on widowhood in medieval and early modern Europe.

This is followed by a range of essays which illuminate different dimensions of widowhood across Europe - in England, Italy, France, Germany and Spain. A particular attraction of the volume is the attention given to widowers, and the comparisons made between the male and female experience of widowhood. It is an exciting reinterpretation.
