Description
This book examines how women are portrayed in Ben Jonson's non-dramatic poetry. While some critics have accused Jonson of being misogynistic, this work presents evidence that his depictions of women are actually reflective of the historical and societal context in which they were written.

This work looks at Jonson's treatment of women in his verse rather than in his plays. Previous critics have argued that Jonson was misogynistic, but this book provides evidence to the contrary, placing his depiction of women firmly within their historic/societal context.
