Introduction: Authorial Alibis: Early Modern and Late Modern -- Self-Effacement and Sprezzatura: Modesty and Manipulation -- Sola Scriptura: Reading, Speech, and Silence in The Examinations of Anne Askew -- 'A worme most abjecte': Sermo Humilisas Reformation Strategy in Katherine Parr's Prayers or Medytacions -- Mea Mediocritas: Mary Sidney, Modesty, and the History of the Book -- 'This triall of my slender skill': Inexpressibility and Interpretive Community in Aemilia Lanyer's Encomia -- 'To be a foole in print': Anne Bradstreet and the Romance of 'Pirated' Publication.

Why are the most famous examples of early modern women's writing professions of inadequacy, apology, and self-denigration? Why have we so frequently read these pronouncements as straightforward autobiographical assertions? Early Modern Women's Writing and the Rhetoric of Modesty revisits the classic, even cliched trope of the woman writer's humility, rereading this familiar pose of abjection through the lenses of early modern rhetorical practice, protocols of early modern printed publication, and debates in contemporary feminist theory. In the process, the book provides provocative new readings of five now-prominent women writers - Anne Askew, Katharine Parr, Mary Sidney Herbert, Aemilia Lanyer and Anne Bradstreet - revealing the surprisingly assertive and ambitious subtexts of their conventional expressions of modesty. These readings challenge long-held assumptions of early modern women's authorial self-fashioning and examine the ways in which the figure of the woman writer and the category of gender continue to hold crucial, determining and fetishized positions in our prevailing models of literary history.
