Though recent scholarship has focused on both maternity and romance literature in early modern England, this is the first full length scholarly volume to address the notable intersections between the two topics. Scrutinizing romance narratives in various forms, the collection explores motherhood as it was figured in the fantasy world of romance by authors ranging from Edmund Spenser to Margaret Cavendish.
