| The notion of education as "preparation for one's station in life" is explored in these essays. They look at what constituted education for women in early modern Europe and show the gender-specific nature of teaching. |

| This book works on the premise that an "educated" woman was in early modern Europe something quite different than an educated man. Education was understood as preparation for one's station in life. Women were not "uneducated" with regard to men - they were simply educated in a different manner and toward a different end. |
