| Title: | Other women's voices : translations of women's writing before 1700 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Other Women's Voices is a website offering information about, excerpts from, and links to the work of well over a hundred women writers, dating from ca. 2200 BCE to the end of the 17th century. The majority of the works covered, though not all, have a religious theme; the writers are as diverse as Sappho, Eloise, Lady Nijo, Teresa of Avila, and Elisabeth, Princess Palatine. For each writer, the site includes brief biographical information, links to online editions of the works, bibliographical details of texts not available online, selected quotations (often substantial), and information about secondary sources. The links to online resources are carefully chosen and well annotated. Both chronological and alphabetical indexes are available. This well-maintained site (remarkably few broken links for so extensive a project) is the work of retired college teacher Dorothy Disse. |
