In \u003ci\u003eUnquiet Women\u003c\/i\u003e, Max Adams brings to life the voices and experiences of women living between the last days of Rome and the Enlightenment, whose stories of creativity, intellect and influence are all too rarely told. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom Wynfl d, the Anglo-Saxon noblewoman who owned male slaves and badger-skin gowns, to Mary Astell, the philosopher who out-thought John Locke, this is a kaleidoscopic study of women's history before the Enlightenment changed everything. In this rigorous work of rescue and recovery, their voices can be heard across the centuries - still passionate and still strong. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eReviews: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'A centuries-spanning study that rescues women's lives from the margins of history' \u003ci\u003eBBC History Magazine\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'Illuminating and wise...
