Many people have helped me to write this book, and I thank them all.

My thanks to librarians, especially at the Bodleian Library, the British Library, the Cambridge University Library and the University of Western Australia. I acknowledge the kindness of the trustees of Dr Williamss Library, London, for allowing me to quote from their manuscripts, and the library staff for their assistance; the librarian of the Angus Library, Regents Park College, and the Principal, Barry White, for allowing me to consult and quote from manuscripts. My thanks also to the helpful staff of Friends House Library, London, and especially Malcolm Thomas.

I acknowledge with gratitude the support of the University of Western Australia for study leave, and the Humanities Research Centre, Canberra, for a fellowship in 1986. And I warmly thank the office staff of the History Department Dawn Barrett, Judy Bolton, Ingrid Buschmann and Muriel Mahony for help with word processing.

The interest of my students in the University of Western Australia has provided me with support, and I thank especially Claire Walker and Josie Hill. Friends and relatives have assisted in various ways. I am grateful to them all, especially Ursula and Gerald Aylmer, and Mary and Ken Green who have befriended me in England over the years. Seminars at the Humanities Research Centre, ANU, in the feminism and the humanities year, at the AHMEME conferences, and at the University of Western Australia have provided valuable comments.

Living as I do in Western Australia, I am conscious of the kindness of friends who send me references, comments and their papers, enabling me to keep in touch with current work; special thanks to Val Drake, Ann Hughes, Sarah Jones, Anne Laurence, Phyllis Mack, Mary Prior and Keith Thomas. For allowing me to consult unpublished papers, I am grateful to Inez Alfors, Clive Field and Susan OBrien; for discussion and comments, Patrick Collinson, Colin Davis, Gail Jones, John Morrill and Kevin Sharpe.

Bob Scribner suggested that I write the book, and he and Lois have been constant friends. Penny Boumelha, Sarah Jones, Anne Laurence, Jane Long, Hugh McLeod, John Morrill, and Bob Scribner I thank most warmly for reading the manuscript and making perceptive comments. In the Routledge editorial team, I am grateful to Claire LEnfant, Louise Snell and Sarah-Jane Woolley for their encouraging support.

My greatest thanks are to Lyndal Roper, who has discussed with me the ideas about women in early modern Europe over a number of years, and has read and commented on the manuscript, and to Sara Mendelson who has been working with me on a social history of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century women in England. Sara had shared material and ideas for nearly a decade, and I deeply appreciate her careful reading of this entire book. None of these friends is responsible for mistaken views or errors. Finally, I acknowledge the support of my husband, over many years.
