Publications intended for use in the Frauenzimmer were meant to enhance and enliven a woman’s sensations, facilitating not merely diversional entertainment but a multisensory experience that contributed to forming her individual morality and feminine identity. Matthew Head suggests that eighteenth-century German women were “emblem[s] of social, moral, and artistic ideals,” performing music in their private sphere as a means to participate in feminine values of the Enlightenment. To extend Head’s argument, this essay will examine publications for women of the Bürger (citizen) class to construct the ways music, literature, and engravings intersected to turn her Frauenzimmer into a multidimensional sensoryscape in the formation of her individual taste. Moreover, I will demonstrate how Lieder (songs) found in these publications could enliven the Frauenzimmer with sound, offering a unique experience of performing German womanhood through the combination of music and text. I propose the concept of sensoryscape in order to envision the experience of NorthGermanBürgerinnen, who would have engaged their interconnected physical,","PeriodicalId":41850,"journal":{"name":"Early Modern Women-An Interdisciplinary Journal","volume":"22 1","pages":"157 - 169"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75680747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, rather than referring to this era as “the early modern period,”which invokes the supremacy of Western societies, I will refer to it as “the early modernities” to insist on the simultaneity of transformations and individual experiences around the world. This turn to the pluralization of modernity, otherwise known as the early modern global, is now well on its way, and while it allows the disruption of chronological, disciplinary, and cultural boundaries, it still lacks the contributions of women of color to its complexities. Although feminist scholars have advanced our knowledge of women in the early modernities, the tendency to highlight only influential European women is still prevalent. This type of scholarship admittedly bypasses questions of race and assumes a common history of marginalization.Writing from the vantage point of a global modern world, with the intention of opening new non-Eurocentric perspectives, we should not miss the opportunity to write about Indigenous, Black, and other women of color in the earlymodernities. Researching about these women is not an easy task, as records about them are often incomplete and require a painstaking reconstruction of their social relationships. Yet, it is also a gratifying","PeriodicalId":41850,"journal":{"name":"Early Modern Women-An Interdisciplinary Journal","volume":"78 1","pages":"79 - 82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86062831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Frames matter. If Kelly-Gadol challenged us to rethink periodization, what insights might a respatialization of the Renaissance offer? How do our perceptions of race and gender shift if we compare Europe to other parts of the world? I can only sketch some possibilities in this short contribution. Focusing on the native mother of a Melakanmestiço, I hope to show how female lives read very differently depending on whether they are viewed through a European or an archipelagic Southeast Asian frame. Thus, I also call for comparatism as an approach. What we know of Elena Vessiva is related by her son, with his own fascinating biography. Manuel Godinho de Erédia, born in 1558 or 1563 in Melaka, moved to Goa after his mother’s death and became a surveyor and cartographer, working for the colonial government in India and, from 1601 to 1606, in Melaka.

For spiritual women in particular, whether as members of religious orders, mystics, churchgoers, sectaries, wives, andmothers, religion could also bring edification and self-knowledge when they expressed their faith in writing. Since late medieval Christianity (1200–1450), mystical theology regarded highly emotional reactions to religion as evidence of divine presence, usually triggered by a series of devotional practices eliciting an affective response to episodes of Jesus’s life in the Bible through visualization and mental concentration. These practices did not disappear with the Reformation, although it brought a reformulation of the ways in which the body and the senses engaged with the physical world to foster spiritual awareness. The idea that early Protestants rejected ritual and the cult of images in order to give precedence to the word of God—according to the doctrine of sola scriptura—is now nuanced by scholarship that recognizes that religious experience was largely mediated by sensorial discourses, spanning the traditional divide between Reformed, Catholic, and Orthodox strands of Christian faith.

Written accounts of the time show that studying and imitating speci fi c behaviors had a political and social value. If courtiers could learn to read the surface of the body and reproduce speci fi c signs and behaviors, they were likely to be successful in a variety of courtly settings.

How can writing about such moments be an act of control over one ’ s narrative and leg-acy? Because of the omnipresence of Baldesar Castiglione ’ s Book of the Courtier (1528), and the male bias in the Renaissance and the centuries that followed, most scholarship on the Renaissance court has focused on handbooks and guides for male courtiers. 1 Of course, female members of court also held important positions","PeriodicalId":41850,"journal":{"name":"Early Modern Women-An Interdisciplinary Journal","volume":"21 1","pages":"56 - 75"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88686641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She was martyred for her outspoken protests against the persecution of Christians and her unwavering virginity (and, we might imagine, for being a young woman unafraid to voice her thoughts and engage publicly in debate). All in all, she was an excellent role model for Sulpitia Cesis (1577–after 1619), a nun who similarly sought to strengthen her public influence and ties to the church via rhetoric, both poetic and musical. Cesis, a composer at the Augustinian convent of San Geminiano in Modena, Italy, published four Italian-language motets alongside nineteen Latin ones in her 1619 publication Motetti Spirituali, at least two of which employ texts she composed.

An especially grievous form of the devil’s many perils was demonic possession, where an incorporeal demon, or even the devil himself, would enter and seize control of the body of its host, a demoniac. This was typically accompanied by a series of diabolical markers, at the epicenter of which were the demoniac’s senses—disturbing visions of hell, the burning touch of sacred objects, the choking smell of brimstone or the unnatural taste of strange objects seemingly voided from the demoniac’s stomach. It is the sense of hearing, in particular, that this essay addresses. Hearing is a physiological constant for most, but it is a sense that historians have not usually privileged in reconstructions of possession and exorcism.

His rise to the status of savior of the nation was prefaced by a different kind of achievement: the establishment of England’s place in what would become a global triangle trade in sugar, tobacco, and human beings. International and global preeminence was thus shadowed and underwritten by the slave trade; nation rested on race. The history of the slave trade shadows and envelops the development of early modern literature. When we study the Atlantic traffic among texts, modes, and authors, we must often read by slavery’s baleful light, and we know now that this flickering light may not always allow us to see clearly the black and brown women who are the continuing occasion of my studies.When Pieter de Marees wrote that the women along the Guinea coast were prone to “lust and uncleannesse” from their youth and that they aimed this natural lecherousness at the Dutch traders who began to arrive in the region in the seventeenth century, how did he know this?
