"This first print edition of two extant manuscripts by Dorothy Calthorpe (1648-1693) introduces a new seventeenth-century woman writer to the growing canon of early modern female authors. The edition provides transcriptions of the manuscripts and Calthorpe's will, as well as an apparatus that features a comprehensive introduction to Calthorpe, her family, and her work; a Glossary of Persons who figured in her writing and her life; and two genealogical charts. Ultimately, Calthorpe's writings (including both prose and verse ranging from Petrachan love poems to roman áa clef and devotional verse), and the thoughtfully constructed and illustrated volumes in which her texts appear, demonstrate the rich intellectual life of a previously unknown female writer and provide a compelling example of Restoration manuscript production"--
