'Portraits and Poses' adopts a historical approach to shed new light on this topical subject. It addresses various modes and strategies by which learned women (authors, scientists, jurists, midwifes, painters, and others) sought to negotiate and legitimise their authority at the dawn of modern science in Early Modern and Enlightenment Europe (1600-1800). This volume explores the transnational dimensions of intellectual networks in France, Italy, Britain, the German states and the Low Countries. Drawing on a wide range of case studies from different spheres of professionalisation, it examines both individual and collective constructions of female intellectual authority through word and image. In its innovative combination of an interdisciplinary and transnational approach, this volume contributes to the growing literature on women and intellectual authority in the Early Modern Era and outlines contours for future research. 606 $aGender studies: women$2bicssc 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aWomen Writers;Early Modern Period;Authority Constructions;Visual and Textual (Self-)Representation;European Intellectual Culture 615 7$aGender studies: women 700 $aVanacker$b Beatrijs$4edt$01221958 701 $aDeinsen$b Lieke van$01221957 701 $aVanacker$b Beatrijs$01221958 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910558690303321 996 $aPortraits and Poses$92833707 997 $aUNINA
